My Beauty Favorites of 2015! | LIPS |

Hello Beautiful !

Finally the last part in My Beauty Favorites of 2015 post! Here I'll share all the lipsticks and lip liners that I have loved using through out 2015. Read on to find out why exactly I love each one of them.

1) Maybelline - Color Sensational Lipstick - Lady Red:
          It is such a beautiful  beautiful bright Red, it's somewhere between warm and cool tone. Also the Lipstick has a satin finish and has a very creamy formula that glides on so smoothly on the lips. I love how comfortable it is to wear and it doesn't feather or bleed. I'm wearing this here.

2) Maybelline - Color Sensational Stripped Nudes - Coffee Craze:
          Coffee Craze is a color of a creamy coffee with extra creme. It is neutral toned  and compliments my skin tone so much. It is my all time favorite nude lipstick. Read all about it in the review here.

3) Maybelline - Color Sensational Lipstick - Coral Tonic:
          This was my first lipstick from Maybelline and I'm in loveeeee with the color!! It is a beautiful citrus-y Coral color that is perfect for Spring and Summer and I wore it all through that. Again, the formula is creamy, pigmented and has a satin finish. 

4) Rimmel - Lasting Finish by Kate Moss - 106:
          I wish it had a name rather than a number. The color is a beautiful bright Pink with a creamy matte formula that glides on without tugging and is so incredibly pigmented. I wore it through Spring and Summer. 

5) Rimmel - Lasting Finish Lipstick - Heart Breaker:
          A beautiful Raspberry color with a satin finish -perfect for transitioning from Summer to Fall. I really love the creamy and highly pigmented formula which is comfortable on the lips. I love to just wear a sheer coat of it for casual days and the full blown color for events.

6) Luscious Cosmetics - Super Moisturizing Lipstick - Daisy Pink:
          This became my favorite very quickly! For everyday (I went out) use I was using Coffee Craze but ever since I started using Daisy Pink I loved how it was the perfect pink for me! Also the lipstick is so creamy and pigmented, glides on so smoothly! Now it's my favorite everyday pink!

7) Luscious Cosmetics - Ultra Smooth Lip Liner - Chai Latte:
          This has been my Go To lip liner to line and fill my lips with under all the nude colors. The color has a peach tone to it and compliments brown-y, peach-y and pink-y nude colors.
It glides on smoothly without any tug.

8) Luscious Cosmetics - Ultra Smooth Lip Liner - Ruby:
          This is such a beautiful color to even wear on its own! Ruby is a beautiful Red that compliments all the Red lipsticks I have. It is more of a neutral toned Red if not cool. I love how soft it is to just glide on the lips without any tugging.

It was hard narrowing down my picks more since I used and loved a lot of products in 2015!

A Quick Holiday'15 Look !

Hello Beautiful!

Here's a last minute quick Holiday Look with a little sparkle and a bright Red pout. Aren't Reds all the rage this Holiday season? I feel you can never go wrong with a Red Lipstick (given you choose the right one with the right undertone for you). A Red Lipstick makes one look put together and classy instantly and it doesn't really require a lot of eye makeup too!
I know I'm late for a Holiday look but not too late yeah? That's why this is a last - minute makeup look that you can totally rock this Holiday!
Now for me anyhting quick or last minute doesn't involve foundation and contouring, therefore I haven't used foundation or contour but you can totally use a BB Cream or even a foundation if you like, you do you boo! 

If you do recreate this look, don't forget to share it with me using the hashtag #gulezehrasblog

Tools Used:

• A pencil Brush
• An Angled Blending Brush
• e.l.f Angled Eye Liner Brush

Lips:

• Luscious Cosmetics Ultra Smooth Lip Liner - Ruby
• Maybelline Color Sensational Lipstick - Lady Red

Steps:

Eyes:

• After priming my eyes with the Creamy Beige concealer (up to my brows and near the lower lash-line), I set it with Stay Matte Powder so that rest of the eyeshadows can blend easily.
• With Caramelized, as a transition color, on the MB23 brush I blended it well in my crease and took it a little higher. Blended it well from the outer corner to the inner corners of my eyes.
• With Creme Brule on an Angled Blending Brush I patted it in the outer corners of my eyes and took it into my crease blending it well.
• Again with a little Caramelized on MB23 I blended the two colors together so there are no harsh lines.
• I highlighted my brow-bone and inner corners with Holly Wood Boulevard.
• After lining my upper lids with Colossal Kajal, I smudged it with an Angled Eyeliner Brush and created a soft wing.
• For the Holiday sparkle I lined my lower lash line with two coats of Glitter Eyeliner.
• At the end applied a coat of Rocket Mascara and topped it with Telescopic Mascara.

Face:

• After moisturizing my face I applied the concealer under my eyes and blended it in with my ring finger with a tapping motion.
• I set the concealer with Stay Matte Powder and dust it lightly all over my face.
• For blush I used Sugar and highlighted my cheek bones with Holly Wood Boulevard.

Lips:

• I lined and filled in my lips with the Lip Liner in Ruby.
• Finished the whole look with two swipes of Lady Red on my lips.

I have no idea why my neck looks so different in tone than my face although it matched fine. Maybe because of the lighting because I had nothing but a light dust of Stay Matte Pressed Powder on my face and neck. Well, that's the Holiday Look. The steps for eyes might seem long but they don't take long when you're actually doing the eye makeup. The smudged eyeliner can be skipped altogether and you can also use just one mascara that provides both length and volume. 

I hope you like this quick, last minute makeup look. Let me know how you plan to spend your Holidays and don't forget to share your makeup looks with me by using the hashtag #gulezehrasblog. I'll be doing Winter looks very soon too!

Until next time, Good Luck and Ciao!
