College Inspired Makeup with Mac Stylishly Yours and Cham Pale Collection

So, I unintentionally did this next tutorial with products available exclusively through the Mac Stylishly Yours and Cham Pale Collections. So, if you have any of the products from those collections or you are still thinking of making a quick trip to your Mac counter to pick some of those items up, here are some cool things you can do with those items!

I was on a flight all day yesterday and I happened to sit next to two college students. They instantly reminded me of myself three years ago. They had a very laid back feel to them. The girl, wore a t-shirt, leggings, about a thousand bracelets, and dark black eyeliner as her only makeup accessory. The guy sported a flannel button down, dark wash jeans and Vans. We had a great time on the plane together and they reminded me so much of myself three years ago, that I decided to do a makeup tutorial inspired by my college self. I like to call this makeup - the type of makeup you wear when you want to pretend like you just don't care. It's very easy to do and pretty wearable. Enjoy!

Fake It 'Til You Make It Makeup - Universal Makeup for all types of events!

There is a type of makeup that I resort to for any of the following big events in my life: (1) a job interview, (2) meeting my boyfriend's parents, (3) a religious event (i.e., a wedding [not your own], bar mitzvah, baptism, etc.), (4) a first date, and finally, (5) exchanging items after a break up with your now ex-boyfriend. (Because who doesn't want to look lovely, natural, and flawless when meeting the ex to exchange items).

I call this "universal makeup" because it can be worn to any of those events and will always make you look well kept, pretty, nice and natural. I hope you all will find this tutorial helpful! Enjoy!

Smokey Brown with Coral Lips

Who said smokey eyes only went with nude lips? I think nude lips are kind of going out of style. I decided to put a twist on the smokey eye with a bright coral lip and some orange cheeks. I hope you all enjoy!!! My alternative choices to a nude lip include a mauve purple, a bright coral, a red or even a light lip gloss!
