Festival inspired look

Coachella is kicking off this weekend, and since I'm stuck here in the rainy Pacific Northwest I decided to play dress up and put together my own festival look! I felt so silly yet awesome breaking out my floral fringe kimono and felt wide-brimmed hat while it is so gloomy outside.

I decided on really bronzing up my face and down played my blush more than usual (I'm a blush fiend, hence my blog name). I highlighted the heck out of my cheeks instead to create a really glowy look. I kept the lips neutral with one of my favs, Maybelline's Creamy Matte Lipstick in Daringly Nude.

I also used really warm, neutral brown eye shadows in my crease and a nice metallic copper shadow on my lid. I was going for a more natural, bohemian look, and then I did my winged liner and it turned out WAY more dramatic than I wanted. I don't wear winged liner often so I'm a newbie still and it can get out of control so fast.



So I just went with it and broke out some intense winged eyelashes, the Ardell Curvy #411's to go with it.

Like I've said, I'm not a make up artist and I don't pretend to be. I just really love make up and practicing my "skills."

Here is a look at most of the products I used:

Wet N' Wild Ticket to Brazil bronzer, Hard Candy Tiki bronzer (Highlight), the Balm Hot Mama blush, L'Oreal Infallible Pro-Matte foundation, Jordana Fabuliner in black, IT Cosmetics gel eyeliner in brown, NYX Micro Brow pencil in Brunette, Maybelline Lash Sensational mascara, Maybelline Creamy Matte lipstick in Daringly Nude, and a Coastal Scents palette I filled with their single shadows.

I love my Coastal Scents eye shadows! And they were less than a dollar each on sale. Even when they aren't on sale they're still less than $2 for great quality singles. I've labeled the ones I used on my eye, which are shades I use ALL the time. Oatmeal Tan is a great warm, tan transition shade while Barista and Chocolatier are both good for throwing in your crease. New Penny is a nice shimmery copper color for the lid to add a pop of color.

Anyways, I'm basically just super jealous of all you people going to Coachella.
