10 Days of Fenty Beauty: A Storm in the Stars

Day 3:

A storm in the stars

You know what they say- one, two, three, eyes on me! For day three I decided to go dark, stormy, and and bold. Let me tell you, the Fenty Beauty Galaxy Palette came through with plenty of opportunity to do all three. I did a livestream of this look via Instagram, did any of you guys watch it? 

To start off, I applied elf primer all over my face and eyelids. For my eye look, i applied the shade Space Owt from the Galaxy Palette on the outer corners and about a dime diameter into the crease and then blended it into the middle of the lid. It took about four applications of the product to get a significant amount of the base purple color to show to my liking.  I added a bit of a simple dark grey in the outer corners to add some dimension.

I always like to add a lighter, white shade to the inner corners of my eyes, and since this is a 10 Days of Fenty Beauty post, I used Milky Way from the Galaxy palette. Just below the waterline, I shaded from the inner corner with Milky Way to the center and then added Space Owt from the center to the outer corner. I have been using this technique a lot recently and am loving how it simultaneously brightens and adds to the smokiness of the look. 

I once saw Kim Kardashian do her contour in the shape of a 3 on her face, so I decided to try it this time, with the Match Stix in 'Mocha'. I had never done contour along my jawline so I was a bit nervous, but I am very satisfied with the result! I blended with an oval brush from the My Makeup Brushes set that I bought for $25. If you have read my other posts on Fenty Beauty, you know which ones I am talking about. 

For concealer, I used the shade 'Bamboo' , also from the Match Stix Trio in Medium 200. I am fairly consistent with my placement of concealer- just under the eyes. For blush, I actually used the Match Stix highlighter 'Trippin' which has an orangey- pink glow. In place of that highlighter I used the shade Milky Way from the Galaxy Palette with my Morphe fan highlighter brush. I was hesitant with my application at first because of how glittery these eyeshadows are, but ultimately I fell in love. So, I layered that EVERYWHERE! And, by everywhere, I mean along my nose ridge, the tip of my nose, above my cheek bones, and the v of my lips. 

To finish, I added my Bee-Q-Box F*ckboy Repellent setting spray in the shade 'Petty' and NYX Cosmetics Mega Shine Lip Gloss in 'Baby Rose'. 

That is all my babes! Thanks for reading. What do you want to see next?
