How to Look Like a Party Girl, Without the Party! AKA: A FOTD (Just not from today)...





I did this look a while ago, so I can't quite remember how I achieved it (my bad), but I can tell you what I used to get it...





At least I was smart enough (at the time) to edit the picture to point out (ha) the exact colors I used for the eye look!

I used the TouchBack BrowMarker in Dark Brown (which I raved about here) on my eyebrows. I love the Party Girl Palette from BH Cosmetics, the colors are so bright and the formula is super pigmented and easy to blend. I used the Eyeko Skinny Liquid Eyeliner in Black that I received in a Birchbox (love it!). I used a combination of L'Oreal Voluminous Carbon Black Mascara and Bobbi Brown Intensifying Long-Wear Mascara in Jet  on my lashes.







For my face, I started with a bit of my favorite concealer from Smashbox, the High Definition Concealer in Medium/Dark and topped it with a bit of Josie Maran Argan Matchmaker Powder Foundation SPF 20 in Med/ Dark. I lightly contoured with my fave bronzer, NYC New York Color Sun'N' Bronze Bronzing Powder in Montauk Bronze, then added my HG, drugstore bronzer from Rimmel London, the Mono Blush in Pink Sorbet to the apples of my cheek. MAC Cosmetics Mineralize Skin Finish in Superb (it's limited edition from the Extra Dimension Collection) was my highlight of choice-I used it sparingly on the tops of my cheeks. 

On my lips, I used my new absolute favorite lip gloss, Smashbox Reflection High Shine Lip Gloss in Candy. And here's the complete look:






I hope you lovelies like it! I really want to do more FOTD posts, especially given the rate with which I'm acquiring makeup. I figure if I only use it when I leave the house, I'll NEVER hit pan on anything, and I will eventually be buried in a beautiful avalanche of eyeshadow palettes (my current shopping addiction). So let me know what you think (and next time I promise to post the look in a more timely fashion so that I actually remember how I applied my shadows). Until next time...
