Christmas Day makeup!

Posted this picture on Instagram and got so many questions about what I used so I decided to do a post on it with all the details!

On my brows I have Anastasia Beverly Hills Dipbrow in Chocolate. This is my favourite brow product! I use it everyday and it's stays put! Then to 'carve' out the brows and to highlight my brow bone I used Mac Prolongwear Concealer in NC20. I then use this all over my lids to prime them.  Next in my crease I used Orange Soda from Anastasia Beverly Hills eyeshadows with Mac Rule eyeshadow, I used a mac 224 brush. Then I started on my outer 'v' I used Chocolate, also from Anastasia's eyeshadows, this my favouriteeee brown. Blends so nice. I started with a mac 217 to create a smooth blend then used a mac 239 to create depth. To make the chocolate fade nicely into the transition colour (orange soda and rule) I used a little bit if Swiss Chocolate by mac. Throughout all of these steps I go back with my 224 brush and keep blending everything so it's seamless! Then with a 242 brush I sprayed it with a little fix+ and used Illamasqua pigment in Ore. This pigment is beauuuutiful! I used a little bit of mac glitter in gold and reflects gold in there aswell why it was Christmas! The pigment does have a lot of sparkle to it though! I patted that on my lids and faded it into the brown shadow. Under my bottom lashes I have rule eyeshadow with a little bit of Swiss Chocolate. My lashes are Farfalina from Shu
On my skin/face I started with Natural Radience primer by mac, it's my favourite (my skin in oily to very oily). My foundation is a mix! I used some Mac Studio Fix Fluid and a little of Nars Sheer Glow then I decided to add a little bit of Armarni Luminous Silk. I concealed with Prolongwear concealer. Then I used Mac Prep + Prime Highlighter pen in Light Boost. I paint this under my eyes and blend it out with my Beauty Blender. My bronzer is Give Me Sun by mac, makes the skin look nice and warm. I love using the mac 127 brush, it is quite a new brush, it's quite flat so it kinda gives a contoured effect. On my cheeks I have my favourite blusher from Becca it's called Sweet Pea. It's sooooo pigmented, I need to try more blushes from Becca!  On my lips I used Spice Liner and Peachstock lipstick both my Mac! 
I really liked this look! I love this pigment, I wore it on my works Christmas party but didn't get to take a picture.
