H O W T O | Lauryn Hill / 90's Inspired Fall Makeup Tutorial


So another makeup tutorial, this time inspired by the great Lauryn Hill! I love how she played around with browns, bronzes and golds to create such a demure sexy look without looking too overboard. As much as it is a classic look, its also PERFECT for the fall/autumn period. I kept my palette centered around bronzes and dark browns to keep it smokey; if you would like it to be more daytime friendly, just don't deepen the colour too much. This look can work for all skin tones, just pick a brown shade for you! Hope you enjoy it, and don't forget to comment rate and subscribe!

p.s. I absolutely LOOOOVE the sleek eyeshadow palettes, especially the Au Naturel one. It's so women of colour friendly, pigmented and easy to blend. This palette can do such an array of looks, I'm so excited to do more tutorials using this (hint hint... the grey is my favourite!!!)

GRWM: Summer Casual







Just a quick get ready with me for all those casual summer days where you need to run some errands. I tried to follow the summer trend of looking fresh face and glowy with a pop of colour. I especially love the foundation I used - YSL Touche Eclat - it's so light and doesn't clog your pores. To watch how I achieved this look, click the link above. Don't forget to hit like and subscribe if you'd like to see more of these...

Have a great day
