I love pairing it with the Makeup Geek Base in Rave which just makes this pigment that much more beautiful!!!
My inspiration for this look was from a picture I saw on instagram from pinupbeautyx93. She used Utopia and Rave and I instantly went out and purchased it to recreate the look. I know she used a bit more warmer orange and reddish browns which I love but I switched it up a bit with a more mustardy-camel yellow instead :)

Sorry for the lack of posts lately!!! I wanted to make sure I got a post in for today's video because I am loving some GREAT PRODUCTS!!!
First of all the Coola Sun Care Products are AMAZING! Not only are they a more oganic & natural sunscreen but they smell great and the don't leave a greasy residue on the skin!!
My favorites are the Coola Pina Colada Sun Screen & the Matte facial sunscreen! I love that the face sunscreens are MATTE!! They don't leave a greasy residue and work well with my normal skincare and makeup routine without feeling too heavy on my skin!!
Next are the Jurlique Products!!! The Rose Balancing Mist is so luxurious and pampering on my skin! I love the light mist it has (you aren't being assaulted by a crazy stream of liquid) also the eye cream provides the right amount of moisture to the under eyes without being too heavy or clogging pores! The serum makes my skin feel so soft and supple and keeps my skin feeling hydrated without providing too much added greasy-oily feel to my face!
Next is the Smashbox Studio Skin Foundation in 2.2! This foundation claims to everything you possibly could ask for in a foundation!!! Long-wearing, doesn't transfer, water & sweat resistant, hydrating, oil free, beautiful for photography!! AHHH It is seriously so so so amazing!!! Definiately HOLY GRAIL STATUS!!! I will have my first impressions and demo of it up soon!!!!
Marc Jacobs Highliner Gel Liner in Blacquer! This is also AMAZING! Lasts in the waterline ALL DAY LONG!! It doesn't transfer into my inner corner of my eye, doesn't move down to my lash line, and is nice a black!!! I absolutely LOVE IT! You can get it at Sephora and its a bit pricey at $25 but worth every penny!!!!
The tutorial for the look in this video will be up on Oct 6th!!!

I thought it would be fun to step out of my normal Neutral box and do a fun look with some pinks and purples!! I decided to pair a bubble gum pink with some bright vivid purples and mix them with a variety of 4 different lip combos from Nude to BOLD.

Fall is my favorite time of the year!! Cool weather, boots, pumpkin spice lattes, corn maizes and haunted houses! Doesn't get much better than that!!!
This fall is going to be full of Military Inspired fashion, purple/bold lips and cute big hats!
Here are a few of my favorites for this fall!!
Hats: I love the big floppy style hats!! Yes they kind of remind me of the Man with the Big Yellow hat off Curious George! But they are so cute and look super chic!!!
I found a few cheap alternatives on Love Cultures website but my favorite are the Free People Hats!
Love Culture Hats
Free People
The next are scarves!! I love the added style a scarf can add to your outfit!! No matter how plain your outfit is you can easily dress it up with a fun scarf!! This scarf from Free People is my ALL TIME FAVORITE Scarf!!
BOOTS & PURSES!! I wish I had these in person to show in the video but they haven't come in but you can bet I will have them in some outfit of the days!! These are the Patagonia boots!!! New customers get 20-50% off their first item! I love JustFab because they also have AMAZING PURSES!
Here is my link if your interested in picking up some cute boots for yourself :) http://www.justfab.com/invite/4826047/
Jewelry!!!! I absolutely love the mixed metal look!!! I recently discovered Twisted-Silver and they have some gorgeous jewelry!!! Use the code SHADES for 15% off!! These are a few of my favorite pieces!!
Both Necklaces combined MY FAVORITE WAY TO WEAR THEM
MAKEUP!!!! I always find I gravitate towards my cool tones shadows in the fall!! I love my Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette to achieve the look! Essie Lady Like is my favorite nail polish for fall! I think it is the perfect muted pinky nude color and looks great on fair- dark skin tones!!! It is classic and goes with any outfit!!! As far as blush goes I move more towards my mauvey, neutral, plum shades!!! I think they look so great on the cheeks and work for light to dark skin tones!!! Linked below are my MAC & Illasmasqua blush collections!! MAC Dame, Plum Foolery, Tarte Exposed, Illasmasqua Naked Rose are some of my favorite!!!

I know for fall I will rock my bold purple lip!!! My favorite combination right now is MAC Pro Longwear Lip Liner in Fashion Boost, MAC Retro Matte Lipstick in Flat Out Fabulous and Maybelline Lip Gloss in Mirror Plum! The perfect purple lip!!!
