FOTD: In The Pink & the Avon Blogger Challenge

I used to be afraid of wearing pink makeup because I have dark skin tone. There was an old notion that pink never goes well with morena skin but thank God for Nicki Minaj, she made us dark skinned girls not afraid of colors anymore.

And so for this look I went full pink! Pink eyes, pink lips, pink dress!

What did I use to create this look:

Well, I used a lot of Avon makeup especially the one’s that come from Glamourbox  A Special Edition box which includes the following:

1. Ideal Luminous Blush in Peach
2. Skin Goodness Moisturizing BB Cream SPF20/Pa++
3. Ultra Color Lipstick SPF15 in Hibiscus
4. Supershock Max Waterproof Mascara in Black
5. True Color Eye Shadow Quad in Purple Pop (but I only used shade 1&2 for this look)

How I did it?

Face

• First apply the BB cream and spread evenly onto face.
• Use concealer in areas of concern (to hide dark circle around the eyes and blemishes).
• Dab face with loose powder or powder foundation to make your skin tone even.

 

Eyes

 

• Apply eyeshadow:  start with the base color:  for this one I applied color 1 all over my lids up to browbone. Then applied color 2 on the outer corners of my eyelids creating a triangular shape up to half my lids up to the crease.  Blend until you reach the effect you want.
• At the lower lashes apply the same eyeshado color near the lash line following the same color on each half.
• Apply liquid eyeliner.
• Apply mascara

Cheeks

• From the apple of your cheeks up to the temple dab blusher using a blush brush or contour brush.  Imagine creating a triangle from your cheekbone to your temple to the tip of the side of your nostril.  It’s better to dab than swipe the blush to make it appear more natural.
• Apply lipstick.

Tada!

Aside from making me look very feminine, this color actually made me look like 25 years younger! Would you believe, I’m 35!

 

What do you think ladies?  Will I pass as 25? Would you like to be in the pink too?Stay gorgeous everyone!P.S.  Btw, Avon and Glamourbox is having a blogger challenge #YouMakeItBeautifulChallenge  where you can be one of Avon’s beauty blogger !  To know more about this contest or to join visit https://www.facebook.com/AvonPhilippines?sk=app_121677374624060&app_data=dlt-1 .  Good luck!
