This highly recommended makeup kit contains travel-size versions of popular products like the Lip Cheat lip liner in Pillow Talk, Penelope Pink K.I.S.S.I.N.G. lipstick, Charlotte’s Wonderglow Face Primer, Charlotte’s Magic Cream moisturizer and Full Fat Lashes mascara.
Create Drama
Plan to party all night long? Make your eye makeup last by using a reliable eyeshadow primer.
Try: Urban Decay’s Eyeshadow Primer Potion. It’s an inexpensive and lightweight formula that will keep shadow intact for hours.
Now add some shimmer!
- Define the corners of your eyes with a black kohl liner, add a tad of black eye shadow then smudge with a blending blush.
- Line your top lids with a pale brown or nude shade
- Use a brush or your finger to dab gold glitter shadow on the upper eyelids and inner eye corners and blend.
- Finish your look by drawing small black wings with your eyeliner and add mascara.
Try: Anastasia Beverly Hills’ Prism Eyeshadow Palette for an inexpensive array of 14 beautiful shades. With universally flattering neutrals and an assortment of metallic and sparkly shades, the collection is terrific for year-round use.
