Garden fun make-up

Hi everyone,

Lets face it summer is coming and we are going to be getting our BBQs out. Which will probably involve family coming to visit. So obviously your make-up has to look tip top for when they all come. For todays post I am doing my second part to the first part of mine and Amy's summer series. So if you haven't seen my first post that was my sizzling summer make-up, you can check that out here. Also if you want to check out Amy's first post you will find that here. So lets take a look at what I would wear for a garden party. 

Base:

 For a garden party I would tend to go for a bit more of a higher coverage than if I was away on holiday. This is because as I live in the UK, I know that my make-up will last. I would start by priming my skin with the Rimmel stay matte primer. I like this one as it is easy to apply and makes your skin feel so smooth. Next is concealer and foundation. For these I go for Bareminerals correcting concealer and the Rimmel match perfection foundation. Both of these are perfect as they both have a fairly high coverage. Of course I am also going to powder everything in place. For this my go to would be Maybelline super stay 24hr waterproof powder. No garden party make-up would be complete  without a bit of bronzer. I like the Maybelline dream sun bronzing powder, there is nothing better than a summer glow.

Brows:

 My go to the brows would have to be my Morphe brow palette. As you can see this contains so many different colours for the brows. It also includes a wax and a highlight. I use the first powder on the bottom row, I just find this one works for me.

Eyes:

 For eyes I am using my trusty Morphe palette in 35W. This palette is just stunning, I cant even express how much I love it. You have anything from neutrals to pinks and purples to greys and blacks. Shimmers to mattes. It really is the palette of dreams. I would then finish off these beautiful colours with my Benefit they're real tinted primer with my Soap and glory thick and fast mascara. These two put together are a powerful combination. They leave my lashes looking long and well separated. 
  
Lips:

As always finish of this perfect garden party makeup with doing your lips. I love the Soap and glory sexy mother pucker in charm offensive and the Maybelline color drama in Light it up. Charm offensive is a pinkie nude and looks incredible on the lips if you are looking for more toned down lips. But if you are feeling bold and want all them summer vibes I would go for Light it up. This is the perfect red and as it is a lip crayon it is so easy to apply.

So that is my make-up look for a garden party. How would you do your make-up? Let me know in the comments. I hope that you have enjoyed these first two posts from mine and Amy's series. I look forward to posting the rest of the posts. Till then have a fabulous weekend. See you soon.
