Sometimes you just have to wear a lot of purple, lol. I love how this looks with my hair so much that I'm going to wear this to VidCon. Constructive criticism always appreciated!

Face:
-Hourglass Veil Mineral Primer
-Estée Lauder Double Wear Maximum Cover in 1N3 Creamy Vanilla
-NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer in Vanilla
-Laura Mercier Translucent Loose Powder
-Kevyn Aucoin The Sculpting Powder
-Too Faced Love Flush Blush Palette (Justify My Love)
-NYX Illuminator in Ritualistic

Brows:
-IT Cosmetics Brow Power
-Chella Defining Brow Gel

Eyes:
-Lorac Behind The Scenes Eye Primer
-Too Faced Peanut Butter & Jelly Palette (Peanut Butter, Jelly, Jammin', Extra Creamy)
-NYX Retractable Liner in Black
-Benefit They're Real

Lips:
-Kat Von D Studded Kiss Lipstick in Coven

I applied my primer all over my face, focusing on my cheeks and t-zone, with my fingers. I dotted my foundation on my face and blended with the Sigma F80. I applied my concealer under my eyes in a triangle, down the nose, and the Cupid's bow and blended with the Beauty Blender Micro Mini. I set under my eyes with the RT Setting Brush and the rest of my face with the Danielle Powder Brush. I contoured my cheekbones with the Morphe E8 and applied my blush to my cheeks with the Danielle Blush Brush. I applied my highlighter to the tops of my cheekbones, down the nose, and the Cupid's bow with the RT Fan Brush.

I lightly filled in my brows with the pencil and set them with the gel.

I applied my eye primer from lash line to brow with my finger. I applied Peanut Butter in and above the crease with the ELF Blending Eye Brush. With the same brush I applied Jelly through the crease and lower lash line. I applied Jammin' on the lid with the RT Base Shadow Brush. I applied Extra Creamy under the brow and the inner corner with the ELF Defining Eye Brush. I applied my liner to my tight line and waterline and applied one coat of mascara on my top and bottom lashes.

I applied my lip color straight from the tube.

This look suits you so much! My only criticism would be to apply a little more of the lip colour as it seems a little patchy and muted, however this may just be the camera!
Also, what's your thoughts on the Sigma F80? I'm considering it as a new foundation brush instead of my RT expert face brush.

Thank you, Hannah! I'm not seeing what you mean by patchy and the shade itself is a muted lavender.
I love the F80! At first I wasn't too fond of it but once I figured out the best way to use it (stippling and pressing the foundation into the skin rather than buffing) I've been loving it (:

Thanks, Appi!

Beautiful look Alexis! What do you think of the foundation?! I knew you were getting it but weren't sure of a shade at the time. I use the same shade too 😊
