I watched…
…A make-up tutorial. I do this too little. And then I mean: making time to sit and watch YouTube. But this time, I couldn’t resist!
I really like following the shop “Reinders Food Fashion” on Instagram:
The fashion they show is amazing. And the make-up of the owner is ALWAYS on fleek. So when she decided to film a tutorial, I made time immediately to watch.
She shared some nice tips and trics!
Use fixing spray over your day cream, but before your foundation.

I used to do this in the past out of laziness. Instead of day cream, I used an oil (Smashbox Photo Finish Primer Oil). And then on top, a spray (Smashbox Photo Finsih Primer Water). The result was a super glowy base.
I don’t know why I changed this routine to be honest. Maybe the combination of oil AND water was a bit too much in summer. Maybe my oil was finished. I cannot recall. Anyway, after watching the tutorial, I applied the Primer Water on top of my Guerlain day cream. And I was very happy with the result. The dry patches above and on top of my nose where history.
Apply contour in a the shape of a banana.

Well, I guess you have to watch the tutorial to understand this. I try different things from time to time to perfect my contour. So it is always nice to trying new methods.
I like make-up in brown tones.

And so do I! In the video, Rome explains that she uses white eyeshadow all over her lid (which I never did) and just brown in the crease. That’s it!
In general, I really liked the colors she uses. I noted her choice of foundation is much darker than her skin tone, and tried to give that a go as well. It made me look much healthier. And luckily I had still a lot of foundations left of which I thought were too dark. It is tricky. But for me, it worked. Although I did not go for Drastic Darker.
Her choice for lip color is amazing as well; all the lip items she uses will appear on my make-up wish list for sure!
When applying mascara on your lower lashes, make sure you coat as close to the lid as possible.

It indeed gives you the illusion of a “line” between the hairs. Making the eyes look bigger. NICE!
And now the fun part: after seeing (and studying) this tutorial, I decided that I definitely NEED some more make-up! This look is suitable for every day and very chic, so it is worth the investment, right? SOOOO, here it is!
