Matte Series PT. 2: Classic dark brown!

¡Hola Guapas y Guapos!

For part two of the matte series, I recreated for the classic dark brown matte look. This look is absolutely one of my fav looks to do, because it’s super easy and versatile! Daytime, nighttime, winter or summer, for this look it doesn’t matter. For the lips I opted for a orangey/brownish matte lipstick that completely finishes the look! But because this look is so versatile, you can also finish it off with a dark brown or nude lip (glossy or matte).

For my face make-up I’ve used a new application technique and so far I’m loving the results! I’m going to perfect it and let you all know. Stay tuned.

If you have any questions about application of products or anything else, please let me know and I will respond as soos as possible!

Besos, Sarai Isabel.

Matte Series Pt. 1: Yellow, Orange & Purple!

¡Hola Guapas y Guapos!

Lateley I’ve been super in to matte eyeshadow, so I started a matte series! For part one I used yellow, bright orange and purple. I saw this beautiful look on @sydneylilian and I had to recreate it! It’s an easy look to do, as long as you blend, blend and blend. Don’t be afraid to take the purple a little up in the crease.

Beauty inspo of January ’20!

¡Hola Guapas y Guapos!

After 237 days, we’ve finally come to the last day of January! My inspo of the month series are back in 2020. Lately I’ve been seeing the ‘soft glam’ trend on the Gram, which I absolutely love! But, I still love a good pop of colour here and there. So, here are my favourite make up looks I’ve come across on IG in the last month. I hope you love it as much as I do!

Barbie Pink!

Hola Guapas y Guapos!

In my last post I talked about stepping out of my comfort zone. And because life starts when the comfort zone ends, I kept pushing myself out of my comfort zone and used PURPLE. Yep, that’s right purple (keep in mind I never use purple and don’t even have any purple clothes). But I must say, I’m quite happy with the outcome. I don’t like a heavy eyelook with a bold lip colour, so I opted for a nude pinky lip to complete the look.

About the application: start with a soft pink or peachy shade as the transition colour. Use lights blending motions to apply all the crease colours, so that you can gently ‘build up’ the colours, instead of heaving too much pink on your crease at once.

If you have any questions about application of products or anything else, please let me know and I will respond as soos as possible!
