Own your own skin

HELLO. (Sandyyy stop screaming, God)

So...I've been thinking about doing a makeup tutorial for long now, and this is more of a daily look for me (without the foundation and eye-shadows) so i decided i was going to make it a little bit more of an evening kind of makeup.

It has always been a passion of mine to do makeup (since i was like 12...eshhhh) whenever my friends and I go out, i find myself doing their makeup...ALWAYS, and they ask me to do it as well so...its all good :)

So in here you will find the products i used to achieve the final look (you'll see it at the end) so i'm going to list the products and explain why and how did i use them, i hope you all find this somewhat useful. Also i would like to point out that some of the products i'll show below are really really cheap but very good quality! i would never wear something that leaves spots in your face or brakes it, so that been said...enjoy!

This foundation is currently my fav ever! my skin type is a combination type, oily/dry and this one helps to keep some parts dewy and some parts matte, which is completely awesome.

although the only thing i dislike is that natural beige is the lightest tone they have and i'm very fair skin, but i make it work ;)

I used one layer only, since i wasn't going for a full coverage look, but if you have acne or spots in your face feel free to apply as many layers you feel are needed!.

(i applied the foundation with my fingers)

So after applying foundation i slightly contour the area underneath my cheekbones to give it more depth and elongate the face a little more, after i'm done with the contour i move on to blush and slightly apply it on the apple of my cheeks (to find the right place to apply blush, just smile and apply on the highest points of your cheeks while smiling!)

This one was a gift from my aunt, so i don't really know the brand or where to buy it, but anything similar to this will work just fine! :)

This is a normal blush brush from Elf, but i use it as a contour brush too! (washing brushes is hard don't judge! ): )

Okayyy...so this are the only types of powders i use, why Sandyyy with three ys? you may ask, and is due to the fact that in my country the lightest shades of powders (no matter what brand) is never light enough for me so i always end up looking a bit too dark from my neck up, so when i found Translucent powders i felt like i saw a giant mozarella stick walking towards my mouth (I love cheese) in other words i felt complete! it was perfect for me, it gives a matte finish and removes any oil excess.

This translucent powders belong to a beauty brand name CyZone and i'm pretty sure you can buy their stuff online, i highly recommend this one! a bit pricey but it works. :)

Regular fan brush to apply my powder! by Cala.

FAVORITE THING I HAVE EVER OWNED! absolutely perfect! this kit is life...is air...is the cheese to my lasagna, honestly guys! such good quality a little expensive but i swear it works wonders on your eyebrows, the kit has 3 different shades, for blonde, brunette and black brows, a setting gel and 3 kinds of brushes: Angle brush, a spoolie and an eyeliner brush.

This kit is by L'ebel and what i do first for my eyebrows is that i comb them first with the spoolie and then with the angle brush i just fill in any gaps with the black shade.

This are just basic eye-shadows you can buy any of these online or in a drugstore even, i just used the vanilla shade which is a white/cream tone and i used it as a base all over my eyelid with a regular blending brush!

This is not by mac! i was very confused since they are not labeled i thought it was the Mac one, but no! its the Avon one in quad moccha!

I used this tone to define the crease of my eyes and blended like crazy.

This eyeliner has a very thin brush, since it helps you get a more precise line, i used it to make a winged eyeliner! (signature look since '07) ;)

Also, its by CyZone again!

Oh! and my makeup bag is Daisy by Marc Jacobs (a present from my sister!)

Regular Eyelash curler and stainless lid from Cyzone as well!

I curled my eyelashes before applying mascara.

I WAS WRONG BEFORE! THIS IS THE FAVORITE THING I'VE EVER OWNED! its the colossal volume express, Smoky eyes edition and it works wonders!

I applied lots of coats until i felt like i had 10 falsies laying on top of my eyes :)

kidding! well...not really.

I LOVE ME SOME OF THIS.

Plumping lip gloss in the shade "pink" lol i dont really know. but its pink and it really works! soooo....(:

This step is completely optional, i didnt wear them at the end, but if you like you can apply them since it elongates the eyes a tad more, it has the perfect cat eye shape towards the end of the lashes.

This Falsies are Katy Perry by Eyelure. (it comes with the glue!)

HERE YOU GO!

The final look!
