Tips for this look: I applied my foundation with a foundation brush and added a little more to certain areas that needed extra coverage. For the brow look, I used the pencil mentioned above and defined the top and bottom of the brow (like an outline). Then I used an angled brush to fill in the brow with the cream formula used in the palette mentioned above.

When I applied the eye shadow, I used the lighter color all over the lid up to the browbone and inner corner. I used the medium shade for the crease. When applying the darker shade, I only used it on the outer corners and blended it into the crease. I used a tiny bit also under my lower lashes on the outer corner. No eyeliner was applied to my lower lashes, only the uppers.

Lips were easy – I didn’t line them or use layers! This lipstick is like a gloss and lipstick in one – all set!

    Jill, this is a beautiful makeup look! I think this would be perfect for me to wear out or a date like you said. I also love the FitMe Concealer! I have been looking for a loose powder, maybe I will try this! I hope you post more looks, this is fun.

    • Jill C.

      I’m so glad you like it! That powder is my holy grail! It sets beautifully and doesn’t dry out my already dry skin! It has sort of a baby powder smell though, but I am used to it, haha. Love the stuff. And it’s insanely affordable and last forever. I will definitely be doing more looks, glad you liked it!

    You look fabulous!! I love that you used mostly drugstore products to make your look affordable and still fabulous.

    • Jill C.

      Thank you so much! I love all kinds and brand of makeup, but as a mom, I try to keep things as affordable as I can! Thanks so much for stopping by! XOXO

    So gorgeous Jill! You’re inspiring me to break away from the usual norm! I always want to try fake lashes and I can’t get them on just right! I think I need more practice lol Great look as always! XO

      Thank you so much! Ah yes, the lashes! To be honest, I don’t wear them often, but I love the look of them! They are tricky little things – it does take some getting used to! Maybe I’ll do a tutorial – you’ve inspired me ๐Ÿ™‚

      Thank you SO SO much, Justine! You are the sweetest! I wish these were my lashes. haha. Love me some falsies! I need to wear them more often. They make me sassy! haha

    • Jill C.

      Thank you so much! I will likely do a smokey eye tutorial soon! It’s so fun. I love a super dramatic eye, but this is a nice toned-down version that you can wear for day!

    • Jill C.

      Thank you! This color is my go-to! It feels amazing and it looks good whether I’m wearing barely any makeup or a dramatic look!

    • Jill C.

      Hi Jordan! Some days I barely wear any, and other days I go all out, but you’re right – makes a huge difference! Thanks so much for stopping by!
