Gray-brown smokey eye (Step by step make-up)

Last week we had an event at the salon and then I had this make-up!

I got many questions about how to make this smokey eye in brown tones, there were many who thought it was so nice because I told them that it is made with our new eyeshadow palette glo Skin Beauty Shadow Palette Mixed Metals, and I promised several to publish a step by step description as soon as possible :)

The best thing is that it is really quick to do because the eye shadows are so easy to fade out and get soft edges and no direct precision is required with smoky eyes, just smack on the colors and fade out.

Here it comes, I hope you like it too :)

Bassmink:
Face primer - Pixi Flawless & poreless primer
Foundation - gloMinerals pressed base foundation (Golden medium)
Concealer - gloMinerals under eye concealer (beige)
Powders for redness - gloMinerals Redness Relief Powder
Contouring & highlighter - Pixi Contour Creator
Rouge - gloMinerals Blush (Papaya)
Fixing mist - Pixi makeup fixing mist
Net matting powder - Paese Bamboo Silk Powder

Brynpenna - gloMinerals Micro Brow Liner (Ash and Dark brown)

Lip Pencil (New!) - glo Skin Beauty Lip Liner (Pronto)

Hörrni, hörrni, hörrni surely this lip pencil is to die for? So fine!

I have used these colors, it is the gray-brown that I have on the entire eyelid.

What do you think? :)

I think it had a nice effect with mascara on just the lashes.

  1. Eyeshadow primer, Pixi eye bright primer
    Gray-brown eye shadow on the entire eyelid, applied with Nanshy Tapered Crease
  2. Fade the edges, I used Nanshy blending eyeshadow brush
  3. Light golden eye shadow in the corner of the eye, applied with Nanshy Pencil brush
  4. Brown eyeshadow at the end of the lower lash line
  5. Black mascara on the upper lashes, Magnetic lash mascara

Clear!

Hope you liked the look as much as I did :)

Highlighter with Glow - Pixi Glow-Y Powder

Pixi Glow-Y Powder has become a real favorite with our makeup artists at the salon, you would have seen how happy Ämma was (who has a very light skin tone) that the shade London Luster works great for her super light skin :)

Look so nice:

What is Pixi Glow-Y Powder?
Highlighters that give the skin a beautiful glow and highlight your facial features. You can either apply a little for a discreet glow or more for a radiant glow!

Formula
The formula is a velvety powder that is easy to wrap on the skin.

Shades
London Luster suits you with very light skin.

Santorini Sunset is warmer in tone and suits you who want a more golden glow.

Rome Rose is the perfect peach tone with a golden luster and fits alone as a blush, over another blush or thin all over the face for those who want more color and life.

A swatch image that shows more clearly how the shades are on the skin. Surely they are nice?

You don't really apply this intensely to the face, but as a nice lightening to the eye shadows, it works gallantly to add a little more :)

Application
For a simple application I recommend Nanshy Fan Brush! It is perfect for applying highlighters both in large areas and in areas that require more precision.

Swipe on in the high parts of the face, or just on the cheekbones. Great on the tip of the nose, forehead, chin, collarbones and shoulders.

The shade Rome Rose becomes a mild pink tone if you swipe a little, you have a dull / dull complexion so you swipe a little in the rest of the face also for a more vibrant skin tone. You can apply more and use it as a regular blush or swipe thinly over your regular blush to get a little more peach-golden glow, then a regular blush brush works, Nanshy Blush Brush, great.

Results
Above you see the shade Santorini Sunset on the cheekbones. The darker under the highlighter is just a natural shadow of my cheekbone because I shoot a lot from above, I have not added any contouring shadow.

The highlighter blends well into the skin and gives a lot of effect without looking glittery.

And here I have put Rome Rose as blush in the middle of the cheeks and Santorini Sunset is higher up on the cheekbone. It is difficult to capture the luster in the picture but the cheekbones are very nicely glowy and a lovely color!

I put quite a lot of Rome Rose to bring out the shade clearly in the picture, but you can vary how much you put off the one I wrote later in the post :)

Two thumbs up, can really recommend these!

 

SALE in the webshop!

Now we have a big product sale on beauty products in webshop!

There is so much nice on sale :) Foundations, face primer, palettes, mineral blush, liquid concealer, organic hand soap, konjac sponge, face mist, lipstick, organic brown without sun, natural oils, eye shadows, yes you hear so well :)

Some products are based on the brands' range entirely, on some it applies to the entire product and on certain individual shades, so if you find some old favorites on sale, you should take advantage.

If it had been me, I would have taken the opportunity to treat myself to something nice, but I also want to strike an extra blow to be early with the Christmas presents this year, so nice!

Here are suggestions for some goodies you should not miss:

The cleaning brush for the face is absolutely MAGICAL! It not only exfoliates the face and cleanses the skin completely, but also becomes a micromassage that makes the skin easier to absorb the nourishing skin care you apply after cleansing. The skin becomes so smooth ♥

Available in several colors too :)

Our best-selling lipstick gloMinerals Suede Matte Crayon for SEK 199! It is the shade Crush that is discontinued and it is a brilliant red tone. (Not the red that is in the display image but the other red color that is more bright red)

These lipstick pens are matte and very durable, my safe card when you go out on stuff and want to feel safe in lip makeup :)

All Pixi Book of Beauty palettes except Contour Creator are also on sale! I was so sad when I got the email that these are being deleted, they are not only super cute but really good!

The palettes available are:

Minimal makeup Best travel companion, highlighters, blush, contouring and eye shadow.
Glow getters A palette with 6 luminous highlighters in different tones * dregglar *
Brow know how Perfect palette with eyebrow shadows and eyebrow highlights for you who love to vary your eyebrows and run different ombre combinations. Or for you who often put on make-up for others!
Blush palette 6 blushes in different shades, need I say more? Wonderful to bring out every time you put on make-up.
Bronze palette For you who love bronzer and contouring! 6 bronzers in the same palette!

In addition, the eyeshadow palette Itseyetime, the lipstick palette Itsliptime and the multiplet Palette Rosette with bronzer, blush, highlighter and 11 shadows are on sale!

Pixi Mesmerizing Mineral Palette is available in three different color combinations and contains 6 great colors!

I almost wanted to start crying when gloMinerals announced that the shade Bora Bora would disappear and now almost all our shades disappear! I who love every single one, very useful and nice colors. The light shade Blush has become the favorite at home that the sister borrows from time to time;)

So hurry to bargain for only 99: - before they disappear completely!

Bella is the only shade that will remain but is on sale because it is an older package. Then we will bring in all new lipsticks as news ♥

Konjac sponge - Really wonderful cleansing sponge for the face. Available in different clays with different properties.

Even a sweet and simple gift! From experience, I can also recommend this as a gift to people who do not like skin care and cleansing but who you think should be a little better in the area, my sister bought it for her boyfriend who previously washed his face with hand soap and he is completely sold! :)

For those of you who shave your head - this is not only a cute razor car but extremely flexible as well! We had a customer who shaves his head regularly who tipped about this and Miska's friend who shaves his head then had to put this to the test as well and he also thinks that it makes shaving smooth.

Must be hard to shave my head I think, but have not put this to the test myself actually haha.

Some shades of Paese Lipstick with caring argan oil are discontinued and are now sold for only SEK 49!

The shade Black blue from Pixi Endless Silky Eye Pen now costs only SEK 99 ♥

As I said, this is just a selection of what is available for lower prices now, you can find the whole sale here!

Or you can come to our store in Uppsala, where the sale also applies :)

Shout out if you have any questions, hug you!

Pastel blue makeup, hair & nails

I wore this make-up at a housewarming party last Saturday! :)

I had 3 hours to shower, put on make-up, fix my hair and outfit, have dinner AND do a skeletal Halloween make-up on my sister before I would run to the bus, so you could say I was a little stressful haha.

Multitask-Helena also painted her nails and let them dry while I took the finished pictures of the make-up, so the hair that I had sprayed in a silver-blue tone did not come out as nicely as it really was when I could not pull my fingers through the hair and puff up what I wanted.

But with all the circumstances, it was a good thing that I took pictures step by step and pictures in general so I hope you appreciate the pictures of this look anyway :)

I felt great anyway! Had a black jumpsuit with silver glitter and a big black mystery sweater with silver glitter over, so I was cozy but all-glittery :) And then silver blue nails, silver blue shifts in my hair and silver blue in my make-up. Very well thought out yep, yep!

The lipstick is a new color in the Suede Matte Crayon series from gloMinerals, which is our best-selling lip product at the salon! Matt and incredibly durable, I got comments about it at the party actually, that it sat so well even though I did not improve, and one of the girls who came there with red lips but who barely had anything left after an hour got to try and loved it! :)

The new shade is called Rumor and is a super nice dark pink, completely matte color, I fell in love the first time I saw it, so heavenly nice!

Surely it was nice with the brown tone that draws a little and burgundy along with the cold blue? It did not get any eyeliner due to saved seconds but I think it turned out very nice but also :)

The blue hair is done with the novelty L'Oréal Paris Colorista Spray (adlink) in the shade Pastel Blue which I received in a press release last week. I have actually booked time to bleach my hair to be able to play more with these types of temporary colors, so fun! There will be a review of these soon but in short I am happy with the result :)

Hope you like the look!

Halloween makeup - Skeleton / Skull / Skull

Here comes a favorite halloween makeup - Skeleton / Skull / Skull.

Last Saturday I was in a great hurry to make up my sister who was going to a Halloween party, it turned out to be a skull and wig! Effective and can be achieved relatively quickly.

I also got a picture :)

She had a nice eye makeup when she closes her eyes, which I have no picture of, it goes from white to silvery white, silver, gray and black on the outer edges. Very nice!

Halloween makeup - Skeleton / Skull / Skull

What do you think? :) I think I did it in about 30 minutes, although then she would have done the base herself.

Halloween Makeup - Skeleton / Skull / Skull:

The only thing I used was white and black eyeshadow + a palette with silver tones, black cream eyeliner and Kryolan Cake Liner Sealer (like a mixing liquid) to make the white eyeshadow comprehensive and durable around the mouth. This kind of make-up you always use for regular make-up as well :)

Black eye shadow - Paese cashmere eyeshadow (602)
White eye shadow - Paese cashmere eyeshadow (601)
Silver tones - Paese opal eyeshadow trio (Ice queen)
Black cream eyeliner - Kryolan HD Cream Liner (ebony)
Liquid that makes eye shadows waterproof - Kryolan Cake Liner Sealer

Miska followed her out as well and the next day she was told by an acquaintance on Facebook "Were you there? I did not see you, I only saw your sister and her boyfriend" Lol. What do you say, did she look like me in skeletal makeup and gray hair? :)
