It'sJudyTime Palette

January 05, 2015

Dear blog, this is a makeup look I put together using my ItsJudyTime palette. I absolutely love this palette and have enjoyed using it. I bought the palette at bhcosmetics, but unfortunately the palette is sold out :(, which is sad because it's so good.

On my face I first used the tarte BB tinted primer. I placed a small amount on my finger and spread it all over my face.

For the foundation I used my Studio Mac Fix, I used the sponge that comes with the foundation to distribute the foundation all over my face.

As for my underline concealer I used one from Maybelline, Fit Me concealer.

I used a bronzing powder from NYC to sculpt my face. I sucked my cheeks in and sculpted on my cheeks, then up to my temples, and then to my chin.

For a blush I used flamingo from Sonia Kashuk, and to get that on my cheeks I just smile and brush on the apple of my cheeks.

To prime my eyes I used Mac Painterly.

For my eyes I used the It'sJudyTime palette.

I used the first eye shadow from the top of the palette and I placed right under my eyebrows. I used it as a highlight.

I then used the second eye shadow from the top and I spread that all over my eye lid.

After that I use a blending brush. I combined the fourth and fifth color on the top, then used a wind shield wiper motion starting on my crease.

I used Urban Decay Naked Basics faint color to fill in my eyebrows.

For mascara I used Maybelline the Rocket Volum' express. This mascara is awesome, it gives me volume and makes the eyelashes look open.

I have never been a fan of using red lipsticks because I didn't think I could pull it off. Since I was part of the choir while I was in college, we were required to use red lipsticks so that the audience can read our lips and know what we are saying. Before I put red lipstick on, I like to moisturize. I used the Nuance Salma Hayek rose petal. Red lipstick is very tricky to use and messy, so I like to use a lip liner all over my lips first, then Prestige waterproof in true red, and lastly, went over with the red lipstick from NYC in retro red (I could not find the exact same one I used).

Here is the finished look.

My shoes are from HM, leather pumps. Remember to always use lotion on your legs if they are going to be exposed because we don't want them to look flaky; I used Renew from Melaleuca.

I have no idea where my necklace is from, similar here and here. Also, I don't know about my bracelet, but I found others that will look great here and here.
