It's almost summer! Time to amp up my cosmetic game! This look is fun, and sexy with an ombre red lip and a subtle, old-school glam eye. Perfect for almost any warm weather occasion, and subtle enough for work, sexy enough for play.

You Will Need:

  • Primer I used Sorme's Fresh Start Anti-Aging primer

  • Liquid Foundation I used Makeup Forever Ultra HD in Y205

  • Bronzer I used Becca Lowlight Sculpting Perfector Powder Matte

  • Taupe Eyeshadow I used Makeup Forever Eyeshadow in Mocha (Satin)

  • Black Liquid Eyeliner I used Stila Stay All Day Liquid Eyeliner in Black

  • Black Mascara I used Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara in Black

  • Dark Red Lipstick I used Kat Von D Liquid Lipstick in Exorcism

  • Bright Red Lipstick I used Kat Von D Liquid Lipstick in Underage Red

  • Setting Spray I used MakeupForever Mist & Fix Setting Spray

Step by Step: 1.) Apply your favorite primer to clean skin. I used Sorme's Fresh Start Anti-Aging primer. This will ensure your makeup will last longer and go on smoother! 2.) Apply your favorite liquid foundation in a soft buffing motion. I used Makeup Forever Ultra HD in Y205 3.) Buff a taupe, light bright shade in the upper crease of your eyes. Buff outwards and blend. Also apply this shade to the lower, outer corners of the bottom eyelids. Blend. I used Makeup Forever Eyeshadow in Mocha (Satin) 4.) Line your eyes with a clean streak of black liquid liner, and end in a cat eye on the upper lash line. I used Stila Stay All Day Liquid Eyeliner in Black. 5.) Coat your upper lashes with a voluminous black mascara in upwards strokes. I used Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara in Black 6.) Apply a bright red lipstick to your upper and lower lips. I used Kat Von D Liquid Lipstick in Underage Red. 7.) In the corners of your upper and lower lips, softly apply a darker red lipstick. Dab softly with a clean brush if you need to blend it. I used Kat Von D Liquid Lipstick in Exorcism. 8.) In the crease of your cheekbone area, softly buff a taupe or bronze matte powder. Blend well! I used Becca Lowlight Sculpting Perfector Powder Matte.

9.) Set your look for all day wear with a setting spray! I used Makeup Forever Mist & Fix Setting Spray You're done! Finished Look:
