Hello makeup junkies, hope everyone had a great weekend. Today's look is a super quick and natural, yet still gorgeous look using the products I received in my May IPSY Glam Bag. I was very inspired by the Summery products I received, so I created a look that I would wear any day of the week during the hot Summer months. I kept the eyes super neutral, only using a few shadows and some bronzer in the crease. I didn't use any heavy liner or false lashes, just some light brown liner on the waterline and a few coats of a volumizing mascara. I used a medium coverage foundation with a luminous finish all over my face. Then I added bronzer around the outer edges of my face and a natural pink blush on the apples of my cheeks. Some glowy highlight powder and a shimmery peach lip gloss and the look is finished. All together this entire look took about 10-15 minutes, which is amazing considered it usually takes 3 times as long. I'm really happy with how this look came out and I seriously may have found my new go-to everyday makeup. I'm really loving all the products I received in my IPSY bag, I used almost all of them (except the hair mask) in this look and they all performed exceptionally well. I'll link my unboxing/review post down below, so you can see what I think of the products if you haven't read it yet. If you want to know the steps I took to create this look, just keep reading!!
How To: EYES
-Apply your favorite primer/base all over your eyelids and lower lash line to keep your eyeshadow from creasing.
-Apply a creamy, light colored shadow under your brow to highlight and lift your eyes. I used "Opal" from the Pacifica mineral eyeshadow duo I received in my IPSY bag.
-Apply your bronzer lightly into your crease. This is my favorite trick to get a quick, but still pulled together makeup look; I use whatever bronzer I used on my face in my crease. It just ties everything in together and looks nice. Run the bronzer under the lower lash line, as well. I used the Too Faced Chocolate Soleil bronzer.
-Blend a slightly deeper matte brown shadow into the crease, blending it into the bronzer. You don't have to use another brown shadow if you don't want to, you can just stop at the bronzer to cut down on even more time.
-Apply a light shimmery shadow all over the lid and around the tear duct. I used "Celestial" from the Pacifica duo.
-Blend a matte dark brown shadow lightly into your socket and outer corner. Blend it out with your bronzer to soften the line.
-Line your waterlines with a brown eyeliner. I used one with a warm, reddish undertone to bring out the warmth in my eye color.
-Curl your eyelashes and apply a couple coats of black mascara to the top and bottom lashes.

How To: FACE, BROWS, LIPS
-Apply your favorite primer all over your face. I used the Hang Ten sunscreen I received in my IPSY bag and I was actually really happy with how it applied and wore, and it didn't break my face out!
-Buff a light-medium coverage foundation or tinted moisturizer all over your face, blending down to your neck so there are no lines.
-Apply concealer under your eyes and on any blemishes or redness that's still peeking through.
-Set your foundation and concealer with a light layer of powder. I always use at least a little bit of powder, just so my blush and bronzer don't look muddy or skip when I apply it.
-Blend a matte bronzing powder around the outer edges of your face, to help sculpt your face and warm up the complexion. I applied it around my temples, under my cheek bones, the side of my nose, and a little on my jaw line.
-Blend a matte pink blush onto the apples of your cheeks, blending it back into your bronzer.
-Apply a shimmery highlighter to the tops of the cheek bones, down the bridge of your nose, and a little on the cupid's bow.
-Add a little tinted brow gel to your eyebrows. This will define the brows and keep them in place, but still look natural.
-Set your face with a hydrating mist, then apply a shimmery peach or pink lip gloss to complete the look.
