My Look using the September IPSY Glam Bag! (lots of pictures)

This is the look I came up with using the products I received in my September IPSY Glam Bag. I wanted to tailor my look as much to their theme of "Classic Beauty" as I could, so I created a simple smokey eye with red lips and sun kissed skin. I have to say that I absolutely LOVED everything I received in my bag! The eye shadow applied beautifully and gave a gorgeous soft look, the eyeliner was creamy and dark, the mascara made my lashes super long and gave a great curl, and the masks felt so luxurious and hydrating. The lip balm, by far, was my favorite thing in the entire bag. It is my new favorite red lip! It shouldn't even be called a lip balm, the color went on opaque and rich and lasted forever. I'm just so blown away by all these products and I know they will for sure be a part of my everyday routine.

How to achieve the eyes:

-Apply primer all over the eyelid, then apply the black liner right against the lashes.

-Using the lightest matte brown from the Em Michelle Phan sample page, apply all over the crease as your blending/transition color. Then blend the second darkest color into the crease, as well, staying right under the other color. Blend those two colors together so there are no harsh lines. You want this look to be very soft and blown out.

-Highlight the brow bone with a matte cream shade.

-Apply your charcoal shadow all over the lid.

-Apply the darkest matte brown into your socket line, blending the top part of the charcoal shadow and fading up.

-Touch up the charcoal shadow on the lid, then apply the kohl pencil along the upper lashes creating a soft winged out shape. Also rim the entire eye with the pencil, as well.

-On the lower lash line, run the medium brown from inner to outer corner. Pull this color as far down as you are comfortable doing, then blend it out. Take a small smudger brush and smudge the charcoal shadow all the way under the lower lashes.

-Highlight around the tear duct with a shimmery white shadow.

-Load lots of black mascara to the top and bottom lashes.

How To Get The Face:

-Buff a medium-full coverage foundation all over your face, you want to achieve a flawless face.

-Apply a long lasting concealer on any spots or imperfections. Then apply a highlighting concealer under the eyes and to the center of the face.

-Apply a translucent powder to the center of the face and under the eyes. Then with a powder that's a few shades darker than your natural skin tone, apply to the outer perimeter of your face in the same places you would normally bronze. This gives you a very natural bronzed look to your skin.

-Use a dark, matte brown powder to contour your face.
