******DISREGARD THE HUGE SHADOW ON MY CHEEK, IT MAKES IT LOOK LIKE HORRIBLY APPLIED BLUSH OR SOME ORANGE ASS PATCH BUT I PROMISE IT IS NOT*****

I hardly apply eyeshadow bc I feel like I suck but thats why I have you all to decide that or not! Lol anyways, here we go!

products used:
face - mary kay time wise moisturizer, garnier moisture bb in light/medium, unnamed blush

eyes- BH Cosmetics 26 neutral color palette, LA colors eyeliner, covergirl eyelash curler, loreal miss manga rock mascara, E.L.F. gel liner, MAC Naked pigment

how I applied..
I prepped my face by moisturizing and letting it sit for a good 5 minutes. I then applied two dots of the bb cream on both sides of my face, one on the forehead, and blended it out with a flat top kabuki brush, then used a big fluffy blush to apply the blush (4). For the eyes, I applied some of the bb cream to cancel out the redness. (colors I used are pinpointed in the picture) Then I blended 1 and 2 to get a plummy crease color and decided to blend it onto the lid. I then applied number 3 all over the lid. I then applied 1 and 2 again on the lower lashline a bit. OH and applied MAC Naked pigments for a brow highlight. I lined my waterline with the ELF Gel liner and applied a small wing with the LA colors liquid eyeliner. I proceeded to curl my lashes and apply two coats of mascara.

CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM WELCOME!  (:

It's a very pretty look, but I would extend the wing liner just a bit
And lol maybe it's the lighting that's causing the shadows :)

Thank you Tessandra! I'm used to doing longer wings so I always struggle to get it shorter like this, so I'm glad to hear it turned out okay lol. thank you for your feedback!

Thickra, thank you! I usually do do extended liner but I thought I'd do something different and focus on the shadows :p and it was probably my phone in the way lol!

It's such a beautiful look Renay!
I think you should definitely dip your creativity with eyeshadow, it never hurts to try! Thank you for posting all the details of this look. How do you like that elf gel liner?

Thank you Kitty! I actually really really like it! It's super black and actually really good on the waterline, I only notice it not being so great near the inner corner of the eye but that's where it is the most wet so whattaya expect from a $3 eyeliner?

Julie, oh yay! Thank you so much :)

Amanda, thank you! definitely, I'm waiting for fall to come, it's what actually inspired me.

Thank you both for the feedback! especially on my lashes, I felt they came out a little sparse today but you made me feel better about them! having long lashes is a blessing and a curse, haha. I appreciate the love :))

I like the subtle wing. Not everyone is going for the same look and this certainly is lovely on your eyes. Nicely done. Shadows..ugh..I feel you! It's best to take a shot in natural light, but that's not always an option. Nice work.

Crystal, thank you! I actually did try to wear a darker lip with it but I'm just not confident enough for them lol. I think they look horrible on me but one of these days hahah hopefully.

Hailey, thank you so much! Also appreciate the feedback! I'll try and keep that in mind :)

Rozberry, thank you. It actually was in natural light! haha. I think that may be why the shadow is so prominent.

Adahli, thanks! I loved them together as well
