Here is my look for today. It is pretty glamorous, but it was fun to do. I was copying a video by Dulce Candy.
I didn't have the same purple lip, so I used a plum gloss I have. I think that looks better on me than a purple lipstick would.
I made a video I put on Youtube showing step by step what I did from no makeup on my face to everything finished.
p.s...you can also see how I covered up the big pimple on my chin!!! I used Maybelline Master Camo Color Correcting Kit. The light kit comes with a green that will help cover red spots.
I found this old fall video by MakeupByAlli that I had copied the look in 2012. It was in one of my Fall Makeup Looks list on my blog. I have been revisiting these looks and copying them using makeup I have now. (I haven't kept all of my old makeup.)
Here is the video where I have copied or you could say learned from:
This look was not hard to do. Here are the steps I took to make this look.
1. She used the Anastasia of Beverly Hills Amrezy Palette. I don't have this palette, but I have similar colors. I used what I have. I'll list what she used and then I'll say what I used along side.
Vanilla, under brow - The Balm Balmsai Palette in Wipe Out
2. Makeup Geek Creme Brûlée - Too Faced Chocolate Bar Palette in Salted Caramel. She mixed this with Caramel from the Amrezy Palette. My dupe for this is Too Faced Semi-Sweet Chocolate Bar Palette in Peanut Butter. She put these two colors in the crease.
3. Caramel, outer crease
4. Makeup Geek Purely Naked, inner lid - Milani Bella Eye Shadow in Cappuccino
5. Morocco, center of lid - Kat Von D Monarch Palette in Wrath
6. Lorac Pro Palette in Sable, outer lid - I have this palette. I recommend it.
7. Deep Plum - The Balm Nude'tude Palette in Sexy. She mixed this with LBD (Little Black Dress) from the Amrezy Palette. I have a matte black from an old Wet 'n Wild Palette called Greed. She put these two colors in the outer corner.
8. Morocco, over top dark color to blend it out. I skipped this step and just used a clean fluffy brush to blend it out.
9. Legend - Sephora Storylook Palette in Jasmine eyeshadow is Sand in the Glass. This is a pale golden beige shade slightly metallic. I put this in the tear ducts.
10. She used a black gel liner and blended it out with her finger. I used my matte black eye shadow and ran it along the upper lash line.
11. Mascara
12. She put on false lashes. I skipped this step. I still have not experimented with false lashes. I might get the Target Advent Calendar with comes with a pair of lashes. That might be fun.
13. She used the black gel liner to make a wing. I took my black eye shadow and made a wing, but one of my eyes started to water and was erasing part of the wing, so I decided to use my NYX Matte Liquid Liner in black to go over top the wings to make them more permanent. Using the eye shadow first made it easier for me to do the wings because using liquid liner seems so permanent.
14. Powder
15. Bronzer
16. MAC Peaches Blush - I used Flower Cosmetics Peach Blush. I don't know if this is a dupe, but it is a pretty peach blush.
17. Becca Moonstone Highlighter, top of cheekbones - The Balm Mary Lou Manizer
18. Nude glossy lips. I used a nude lip by Revlon, but when I took the picture it had all worn off.
Here is the look I did for tonight. It was copying a video made in 2009 by a popular youtube at the time named sayanythingbr00ke. I like how it came out. These are the steps to create the look.
1. MAC Painterly Paint Pot from lashes to brow. I used Jordana Continuous Almond Eyeshadow Pencil
2. MAC Naked Lunch, under brow. I used the pink e/s from Wet 'n Wild Walking On Eggshells
3. MAC Tete a Tint, transition color between the underbrow and the crease. She said this shadow is similar to MAC Soft Brown. I used the light brown shadow from an old Wet 'n Wild palette called Vanity.
4. MAC Deck Chair Pigment, lid. She said this color is similar to Stila Kitten or Urban Decay Sin. Also she wet the brush.
5. MAC Deep Damson, outer corner and outer crease. She said this color is similar to MAC Fig 1. I used from The Balm Nude'tude Palette the color Sexy.
6. MAC Maroon Pigment, outer crease. I used Sephora Cinderella Palette in Maiden.
7. She put Deep Damson on the lower lash line. I forgot to do that! I was going to go back and do it after I put on concealer.
I wore Maybelline Fit Me Blush in #15.
Urban Decay Lip Junkie Gloss in Midnight Cowboy
My look for tonight was inspired by a video on the Chanel channel on Youtube. A look created in 2014 by Lisa Eldridge.
I copied the look using eye shadows I already have in my collection that were similar to the Chanel shadows. I made another tutorial for youtube showing what I did on my face if you want to check it out.
Here are the steps I was following to get the same look...
1. Chanel Hesitation #106, lid: Wet 'n Wild Knock on Wood, eyelid color. A warm burgundy with a pearl finish

4. Chanel Admiration #114, inner corner. The Balm Balm Voyage Palette in D1. A warm yellow with a pearl finish.

7. Mascara
8. Chanel Rouge Coco Shine Lipstick in Aura #96. I used Revlon Lip Butter in Sugar Plum.

Here are the steps of what I did to create my look. The same steps Kathleen did...
1. Georgia, fluffy blending brush into the crease
2. Puree, outer 1/3 of lid and crease

Today I copied a look by Jaclyn Hill. I don't have the Morphe Jaclyn Hill palette. I just used what eyeshadows I already had. I love Temptalia's blog because she has swatches of the colors, describes them, and lists a bunch of dupes for each shade in case you already own them. To do this look I had all the colors except for the orange yellow color. I tried to mix a red and yellow to make one, but it didn't look right. I think if I were to do this look again I would just use Too Faced's Peanut Butter in the crease and not worry about the Creamsicle color.
This is the video I copied...
Here are the dupes I found...
1. Pukey: Too Faced Semi-Sweet Chocolate Bar Palette in Peanut Butter
2. Central Park: Too Faced Sweet Peach Palette in Charmed, I'm Sure
3. Mocha: Too Faced Chocolate Bar Palette in Milk Chocolate
4. Diva: L'Oreal Infallible Eye Shadow in Golden Emerald
5. Enchanted: Maybelline Color Explosion Palette in Forest Fury (not sold in stores anymore)
6. Pool Party: Disney Sephora The Little Mermaid Palette in Caspian Sea (this was limited edition)
7. Enlight: Disney Sephora The Little Mermaid Palette in Sea Shells
The blush I used was The Balm In Stain Blush in Houndstooth.
The lip combo I am wearing is Maybelline Almond Rose #565 and Bare Minerals 100% Natural Lip Gloss in Cassis.
If you want to see the process I went through in creating this look here is my video of me doing it.
I think this is a simple, pretty look with fall colors. I liked how this turned out. I was copying a look by SMLx0 or Stephanie Ledda on Youtube that she did last year.
I love her tutorials and I love her personality. I think she is so cool.
Here are the steps I took to create this look.
1. A medium brown with yellow undertones and a matte finish on the crease
2. A medium dark red brown with warm undertones and a matte finish on the outer crease. I used Summer Yum from Too Faced Sweet Peach Palette.
3. A soft, light-medium yellow gold frost on the lid.
4. The medium brown used on the crease put on the lower lash line.
5. A dark purple-burgundy with warmer undertones and a satin finish on the lower lash line. I used the color Delectable from the Sweet Peach Palette.
6. I did all the face makeup.
7. I put a highlighter on and I put it in the tear ducts.
8. I used Covergirl's Cheekers Blush in Soft Sable. Steph used Tarte Sensual Blush which is a medium peach-brown with warm undertones and it is a semi-matte finish.
9. Jordana Lip Liner in Rock and Roll
10. I used Maybelline Almond Rose matte lipstick in #565. Steph used Gerard Cosmetics 1995.
This is another look I find that is inspired by SMLx0 or Stephanie Ledda on Youtube. She did a look last year using the ABH Mario Master Palette and I found I had similar colors and I could copy her look using mainly the ABH Modern Renaissance Palette.
I downloaded another video of me getting ready on Youtube. The reason why it is so long is because I don't know how to edit the video. I just know how to record myself, and then upload it onto Youtube. It's fun for me to do it, and I think I learn more about applying makeup when i record myself and watch it back. I encourage you to do it if you are studying makeup! You don't need to put it on Youtube of course, but it is fun to watch and to see how makeup transforms your face.
These are the steps of what I did.
1. Tape sides of face.
2. Realgar from Modern Renaissance Palette in the crease, it is a medium-dark orange brown, matte shade
3. Warm Taupe in the crease, it is a medium taupe-brown, matte warm undertones
4. Too Faced Sugar and Spice Palette in Chocolate Cake, You can use any warm dark brown, matte color. I put this along the tape and upper lash line, outer v and dragged it in. This step was difficult for me because I felt like the eyes did not match.
5. Primavera from Modern Renaissance on the lid. This is a light-medium, frosted warm gold.
6. Chocolate Cake, along upper lash line and tape again
7. Cream or yellow highlight under brow blend it down with the crease color. I used the cream from Lorac Pro Palette.
8. Realgar, lower lash line
9. Chocolate Cake, outer lower lash line
10. Lashes
11. Covergirl Cheekers Blush in Soft Sable
12. The Balm Mary Lou Manizer on the highlights of the face and tear ducts
This is the Too Faced Sweet Peach Palette with Milani Baked Blush in Luminoso and Revlon Colorburst Lip Butter in Peach Parfait
This is my makeup for today using my new Sweet Peach palette! I had seen a number of videos on Youtube using it, so as I normally do on my birthday I decided to get this makeup palette. I am so excited now, so expect to see a lot of posts and tutorials using it as I create looks with it and get inspired by other people's tutorials.
These are the steps I used to create my look. It wasn't difficult.
1. Too Faced Sweet Peach Palette, Puree, crease
2. Bellini, outer 1/2 of the lid. I wet my brush with Mario Badescu spray. You can use water or MAC Fix Plus, Elf mist and set spray or any kind of spray you have.
3. Luscious, inner 1/2 of lid
4. Puree, lower lash line
5. Charmed, I'm Sure, outer half of upper lash line
6. Milani Baked Blush in Luminoso
7. Jordana Lip Liner in Tawny, lined lips and filled them in
8. Revlon Colorburst Lip Butter in Peach Parfait
This is the video of me putting on my makeup for today...
Here is the look I wore today for my cousin's son's 16th birthday party. I used L'Oreal La Palette Nude 1, Wet 'n Wild Rose Champagne Blush, Maybelline Lip Liner in Raisin, and Wet 'n Wild Highlighter Mega Illuminating Palette. I think it turned out pretty, and it wasn't difficult.
1. So using L'Oreal La Palette Nude 1, I took the third color from the left and put it in the crease.
2. The 8th color a dark brown i put on the lid.
3. The 6th color, a medium brown shade, blend out the lid color in the crease so there would be no harsh lines.
4. First color in palette under brows.
5. The 5th color, a medium tan color in between the crease and highlight color.
6. I used a matte black eye shadow from another palette along the upper lash line.
7. I put the 8th color on the lower lash line.
8. Foundation, concealer, powder, contour
9. Wet 'n Wild Rose Champagne Blush
10. Wet 'n Wild Mega Glow Illuminating Palette, the shade on the right side on cheekbones, above eyebrows, forehead, nose, cupid's bow, and tear ducts
11. Mascara
12. Maybelline Lip Liner in Raisin, I lined my lips and filled them in.
This is me following her tutorial using the shadows I have. I'm going to describe the colors she is using so you can find duplicates in the eyeshadows you already own. You don't need to buy the same palette as her.
This is my youtube video copying this look, and showing how I got it. It's amazing to see the transformation from how I look at the beginning with no makeup on to the end.
1. She used Too Faced Sweet Peach Palette in the color Puree in her crease. This is a medium caramel brown with warm undertones and a matte finish.
2. Next, she used Summer Yum on the upper 1/2 of her lid. This is a medium-dark, red-brown with warm undertones and a matte finish.
3. Peach Pit on the lid. This is a dark, reddish brown with warm undertones and a pearly shimmer finish.
4. Tempting on the upper lash line. This color is a blackened brown with warm undertones and a pearly sheen.
5. Summer Yum on lower lash line
6. Clean brush, blend out lower lash line.
7. Peach Pit lower lash line.
8. Golden highlight on the tear duct and under brow.
9. Mascara
10. She wore bronzer, highlight, and a lip gloss to complete this look.
This is the video where I copied her look. This is a blow by blow of what she did. She is Stephanie Ledda aka SMLx0. She is one of my favorite people on youtube. I have watched her for years. I love her personality and I think her looks are really pretty.

If you want to see me give a tutorial. This video is me showing how I do the look. I don't know how to edit so it is longer and far less professional compared to the tutorials I am trying to copy.
9. Nude Matte Lip, light nude in center of bottom lip. I used Wet 'n Wild Megalast Liquid Catsuit in 921B Nudist Peach and then in the center of the bottom lip I used Maybelline Color Sensational Matte Lipstick in 915 Blushing Beige.

14. Peach Punch, center of the lid. This is a vibrant medium-dark pink-coral with warm undertones. I had to try different shadows to find this color. I could have mixed a pink with an orange. I didn't think about it when I was doing this look. But I think my eye look still ended up looking good even though it wasn't quite the same color as she used.
15. Just Peachy, inner 1/3 of the lid. This is a bright medium coral-orange. I used Milani Bella Eye Shadow in Mandarin.
16. Peach Sangria, outer 1/3 of lid and a little bit in the outer crease. I used Anastasia of Beverly Hills Modern Renaissance Eye Shadow in Love Letter.
