Birthday Makeup Tutorial

Hello lovelies! :)

I finally filmed a video and a makeup tutorial today. I forgot how fun it is to film and make tutorials because it's been such a long time since I last made one.

Today's tutorial is a birthday makeup tutorial since tomorrow is my birthday (January 23)! ^o^

I thought it would be fun to try out a look (kind of like a practice) for my birthday tomorrow. I don't really have any extravagant plans but I am planning on going out to dinner with my friends tomorrow and possibly buying a drink (since I turn 21 tomorrow - legal drinking age in America. LOL).

The look I came up with is a smokey gold/bronze look that is slightly dramatic. I think it could be toned down or go heavier depending on personal preference. I love gold eyeshadows because they are somewhat neutral but flashy at the same time.

Here are some pictures I took:

    Ohh no no flawless skin. >.< It's all the power of makeup and the help of natural lighting. I've been suffering from major breakouts from new makeup products. :( but I am hoping to do a skincare routine video/post sometime. :)
