Brown Smokey Eyes using Too Faced Smokey Eye Palette in Day Look

Hello gorgeous girls!!

I've been wanting to show this look for a while, tried to last week when I was sick but I felt too horrible to really get into it. But I'm feeling much better now and I will show you the final look from the Too Faced Smokey Eye palette. It is the day look and it is a brown smokey eye which is much more acceptable for work than doing a classic black smokey eye. I will be showing you the third and final look from this palette.




If you want to see the "classic" look, which was a black smokey eye, click here.
If you want the "fashion" look, which was a silver/purple smokey eye, click here.

This look is the most used out of my Smokey Eye palette because it is much more wearable for every day than the other two looks. That doesn't mean that I don't like the other two looks, in fact, a black smokey eye is my all time favourite look. As usual, this palette is of high quality, the shadows are very pigmented and the color is rich and vibrant and goes on extremely well. I liked all three of the looks in this palette and I wear them all from time to time. I always come back to this palette. And I just wanna say that if my swatches of Pink Leopard look weird from now on, it's because I accidentally dropped it and it shattered. So I might not be getting a good swirl of everything.

So that is the look. I hope you liked it. This is the perfect way to do smokey eyes without it being too intense and dark and black. It is also great for evening too. What did you think of the look? Would you wear this to work/school or is it too much for you? Do you want to see all the swatches from this palette together? What do you think of my signature face products? (high beam, bella bamba, pink leopard). Do you like the NARS Larger Than Life lipglosses or their regular Lipglosses? What is your favorite pink blush that has a blue undertone?

I really hope you enjoyed this post and if there is anything you'd like me to review, do a tutorial on, or post about please let me know. I'm all for trying new things.

I know today's post comes a little later than normal but I went out for a few drinks with my classmates. We had our Calculus final tonight. So of course we needed to unwind after that. We had a good time at one of our local pubs. Girly drinks and greasy food. I have a Biology final on Wednesday so I might not be posting that night, I guess it'll depend on how exhausted I am after work.

Steph xo.

P.S. I am working on a Makeup Basics page. I'll let you know when it'll be up. After that, I will do an Advanced Makeup page.
