Colourpop Ultra Matte Lip




As you may or may not know liquid lipsticks are all the rage right now. It seems that every makeup company have some type of liquid lipstick and I have to say I'm a bit obsessed. These Colourpop Ultra Matte Lipsticks are actually really good and they are only $6! I've never been a really big fan of matte lips except the Rimmel Kate Moss lipsticks, but I actually like these. They are a little drying but all matte lipsticks are somewhat drying.

One thing that I love about these is that they do last quite awhile. I can eat and drink something and it's still on my lips. If any of you haven't ever tried a liquid lipstick and want to but don't want to spend too much try one of these. You won't regret it. :)

Here are the swatches of the colors that I have:

From top to bottom
Clueless
Creeper
Donut
Lumiere 2
Midi


Let me know if you've ever tried Colourpop products. Also, what are your favorite liquid lipsticks? I would love to know. :)

If you want to see what these look like on you can go over to my Instagram I'll most likely be posting pics on there.

Hayley Williams Inspired Makeup and Outfits


Hayley Williams has always been a huge inspiration to me. Not only do I love Paramore, but I also love her style. Hayley's style has always been unique. She never really did what everyone else was doing. That's what I think drew me to her. She was different. Her style has always been a little tomboyish as well as edgy. Recently, she adds a bit more feminine touches.



It's not just what she wears that makes her a fashion icon to me, but also how she wears her makeup and hair. Oh I wish I could get away with some of the hairstyles she has had.



To start of Hayley has always been a huge fan of makeup. She normally keeps her face simple and natural. Her big thing is her eyes. She always has a lot of eyeshadow either dark or bright colors as well as thick flick winged eyeliner.
 
 
Make Up Inspiration:
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Starting with the face I used a full coverage foundation (Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation). I then added bronzer in the hollow of my cheeks, under my jaws and my temples. I also added a hint of blush. The main focus of this look though is the eyes. I used the Material Girl palette for the whole eye look. I used "Snowflake" to create a base on the eyelid. Next, I applied "Sheer Smoke" in the crease and blended it in. Then, I applied "Purple Prism" all on my eyelid and a little past the crease of my eye. I wanted this to be an intense eye look, so I added black to the outer corners of my eye and blended thoroughly. For my lashes I used "Clinique High Impact Mascara in Black". To finish the eye look I applied eyeliner around my eye and a winged liner. Lastly, I applied Estee Lauder lipstick in "Nectarine Shimmer" to finish the whole look.

Summer Makeup Look - Fresh Skin and Red Lips




This has been my go to makeup look ever since the sun came out and the weather got warmer. I've been keeping the makeup look very natural with brown eye shadows, but add the red lip make it pop. If I was a more subtle lip I will use a light pink.

With the heat I have found that the Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation is the best thing to use. It keeps your skin feeling fresh and clean all day long.




The products that I used:

Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation in Desert Beige
Covergirl Ready Set Gorgeous Powder Foundation in 115/110
Clinique Blushing Blush Powder in Iced Lotus
Clinique Chubby Stick in Bountiful Beige
Material Girl Eye Palette Smoky & Sexy
elf 3 in 1 Mascara in Black 
American Eagle Lip Crayon in Red
American Eagle Lip Gloss in Red
