If you want to be really terrified, don’t terminate up a horror film on Netflix. Instead, put on your makeup in full sunlight. HAHAHA! Dude. It’s kinda frightening seeing a great deal of product on your skin in such unforgiving light. Or perhaps that’s just me since I haven’t been doing a great deal of full-on makeup over the past few months (#pandemiclife).

So, I did this look yesterday morning since I made a guarantee to myself to put on some makeup. (I recognize that my mask covers practically everything, however still, in some cases putting on makeup still makes me feel better.)

Connor had an outside playdate with a friend, as well as we were going to be outside for many of the afternoon, so in the morning I chose to utilize the natural sunlight streaming in with my window to assist guide me with this one-product eye look with MAC Powersurge pencil.

I utilized it as an eyeshadow as well as a liner all on my lids!

Connor’s playdate was for outside “cake painting,” an concept I got from hectic young child on Instagram.

I taped a lot of huge boxes together to look like an large cake, as well as Connor as well as her friend painted the layers with washable tempura paint.

I assumption the most frightening thing about doing your makeup in the unforgiving light of the full sun is seeing just precisely exactly how products behave according to the structure of your skin. GOODNESS GRACIOUS. It truly required me to blend my base as well as buff down all of the excess areas where there was a bit as well much lying there. I’m making this noise frightening, I know, however I believe you gotta do it when just for fun since it truly is eye opening!

I may do it once again today since I assumption I’m a masochist like that, LOL!

Like my makeup the other day, there’s likewise a lot of O.G. MAC faves up in this makeup mix, like Powersurge on my lids, Blushbaby on my cheeks, as well as Whirl lipstick mixed with a bit bit of Honeylove on my lips. (I desired it to look like autumn makeup, however I didn’t want it to go as well brown.)

Initially, I went with a rosy brown matte lip since I was going for a autumn look, however I likewise tried it with a brighter pinkish increased matte lippie…

I had an inkling that the eye/cheek combo would go truly well a brighter pinkish increased lipstick…

This is design Off Duty, one of the new MAC Powder Kiss liquid Lipcolours. I believe it looks truly gorgeous with this eye/cheek combo, as well as the next time I wear it I believe I may do this lip color instead.

One much more thing about Powersurge before I go — when you do these one-and-done looks with liner, the charm of them is that they don’t have to be very ideal on your lids, since if you’re just using one color, if there are areas on your lids that are much more elegantly mixed than others, then don’t concern about it since as long as you have a fairly smooth shift of color that fades up toward your brows, you’re going to be fine.

As with any type of lid action, for instance darkness on the outer third, or when you deepen the outer v, you can do that for much more dimension right here too, however if you try as well as it doesn’t get where you want it to go, buff it a bit more, don’t mess with it, as well as relocation on with your day.

I believe these are fantastic since they truly don’t highlight errors as well much, as well as that’s a fantastic thing!
