Today I am going to show you how I created this Valentine's day look that has a soft, pretty, romantic feel to it. I am going to first show step by step how I did my makeup. Then, explain how I achieved the loose french side braid in my hair. Last, I am going to explain what I put together to make up the outfit. Lets get started!
For the makeup I started by applying my Roc Daily moisturizer. (All products mentioned that are available will be linked at the bottom).
Then I put on the Neutrogena skin clearing liquid makeup in shade 60, Natural beige.
After that I used the Maybelline Fit Me concealer in the color 20, Sand under my eyes.
I used the Neutrogena shine control powder in color 10, Invisible to set all the makeup.
To warm up my face I applied my Milani illuminating face powder in the shade 02 Hermosa Rose.
Then I filled in my brows with the Maybelline brow pencil in the color deep brown.
Then, I put Maybelline's color tattoo, which is a cream eyeshadow in shade 70, Barely branded all over my eyelids.
For the powder eye shadow I started by putting the left color in the L'oreal Hip studio Secrets crystal eyeshadow duo in the color 819 Precious all over my lid and a little in the crease.
The next colors I used were from the Urban decay Naked 3 palette. First I used the color Strange to brighten the inner corners of my eyes.
Next I used the color Buzz in the crease of my eyes, (The color on the left). Afterwords I used the color Burnout (The color on the right), right under the crease and on the outer half of my eye and blended.
To finish up the eyes I applied the Covergirl clump crusher extensions mascara.
Here's what the eyes look like when they are finished.
We're not done yet for the makeup! For my lipstick I used the Maybelline color sensational lipstick in the color 705 Twinkle.
Then for a gloss I used the Maybelline color sensational lipgloss in the color 20 Glisten up.
Now the makeup is complete!
This makeup look is very feminine and sweet with the hints of pink and gold in the eye shadow, the soft pale pink lips, and long lashes. Perfect for a Valentine's day date.
For my hair I started off with a Macadamia oil and ran it through my hair to smooth it out.
Then I teased my hair a little bit at the crown with the Aussie you can shine hairspray for some volume.
For the hairstyle I started braiding like a regular french braid except going in the direction to one side of my head.
I then pulled the braid all the way over my shoulder and finished it off like a regular side braid.
To give the hairstyle a finishing touch I added a cream bow I got from Claire's in the back.
This hairstyle is a pretty, girly, twist on the traditional french braid, and the bow in the back completes the hairstyle perfectly.
Now onto the outfit! I absolutely love my pale pink peplum that I got from Charlotte Russe. It gives the outfit that Valentine's Day feel because of the pretty color. The knit cream colored sweater I put over the shirt to keep warm is from Hollister. It gives the outfit a sweet carefree feel because it is a bit oversized and flows so nicely. My light wash jeggings are from Hollister, lately I have been in love with light wash jeans!
This silver heart neckless is from Lia Sophia. It is perfect for Valentine's day with the whole hearts theme! Lastly, my gold flats are from payless. These shoes are much more comfortable then heels, and give the outfit the glittering touch it needs.
I hope that you enjoyed the Valentine's Day Hair, Makeup, and Outfit idea. I had so much fun creating this look! Comment below what you are going to wear/wore this Valentines day, and have a Happy Valentines day!
