Summer Makeup using MAC Sweet and Punchy

Last night, I put up a sneak preview on today’s tutorial on my Instagram account! I was super pumped to do this tutorial since I can show you guys how you can use the previous tutorial technique and incorporate other color into the look. Don’t you just love that bright green-yellow eyeshadow?! It’s actually MAC Sweet and Punchy eyeshadow, which was from the old MAC collection. If you can’t find this eyeshadow, you can substitute it for MAC Rated R which is exactly the same color.

Anyways, I also want to mention that I’ll start doing “repost” or “regram” on my Instagram account if you follow me and tag your beautiful makeup works with #kireimakeup. I’d love to see your works, especially if you re-create one of my looks! So, please do follow and tag me on Instagram!

As always, scroll all the way down if you want to skip the how-to, and get on the list of products used for this look.

How-to:

1. My eyelids were prepped using Urban Decay Primer Potion in Sin. Next, I applied Smashbox Full Exposure eyeshadow in M1 using a blending brush on my crease.

2. Using a Sephora bullet crease brush, I applied Smashbox Full Exposure eyeshadow in M7 on the outer V.

3. Using a clean blending brush, I blended out my crease so there’s no harsh line.

4. I applied MAC Sweet and Punchy using a flat eyeshadow brush on my eyelid area.

5. Using a small shader brush, I applied MAC Sweet and Punchy on the inner part of my lower lid, and then I applied Smashbox Full Exposure M7 eyeshadow on the outer corner.

6. I created a thick winged eyeliner using a small angled eyeliner brush and L’oreal Infallible Gel Lacquer Liner 24H in Blackest Black.

7. Using whatever was left on the brush on step 6, I applied the gel liner on my waterline as well as the outer half of my lower lid.

8. I curled my lashes, applied Cover Girl Lash Blast mascara, and then I added Gwiyomi “Putri” false eyelashes.

9. I filled my brows using Anastasia Brow Wiz in Ash Blonde and Brunette (I filled my brows slightly differently this time, might do a tutorial on how I filled it in next time).mac sweet and punchy tutorial

10. On my face, I applied CoverFX cream foundation in G40 using a Sigma Tapered Kabuki brush.

11. I added a little bit of CoverFX N110 cream foundation along my jawline, underneath my cheeks and sides of my nose using a damped sponge.

12. I set my face using CoverFX translucent powder.

13. On my cheeks, I applied Benefit Hervana. I also added Benefit Coralista just on the apples of my cheeks.

14. On my lips, I applied L’oreal Color Riche lip liner in Beyond Pink.

Simple Makeup using Smashbox Full Exposure Palette

Today I wanted to share this oh-so simple makeup look. This is the look that I wore last night for a friend’s birthday dinner (check my instagram), and seemed to be wearing it almost quite often lately. The makeup itself is very easy, perfect for beginners if you want to do something different with your look. I think the only tricky part of this look is the eyeliner, but you can skip the winged eyeliner if you prefer. This is a very basic eyeshadow application technique, and you can obviously change the colors of the eyeshadow to whatever you like.

I’ve done something very similar to this look in my other Smashbox Full Exposure tutorial, but that one is more dramatic (with falsies and more liner, and slightly more smoky). If you prefer a smokier look, I’ve done 2 tutorials using this palette right here and here. I’ve also done swatches and a Smashbox Full Exposure palette review.

How-to:

1. I prepped my lid using Urban Decay Primer Potion in Sin.

2. Using a Sephora bullet crease brush, I applied M1 on the outer V of my eyelid, blending the color to my crease.

3. Using a clean bullet crease brush, I applied M7 on just the outer part of the eye.

4. Using a clean Smashbox fluffy blending brush (from the palette itself), I applied a mixture of M2 and M3 on the crease (the picture doesn’t seem to catch those colors since it’s very close to my skin color).

5. Using the flat-end of the Smashbox brush, I applied S3 on my eyelid.

6. Using a small shader brush, I applied M7 on the outer half of my lower lid.

7. I created a winged eyeliner using Kanebo Kate Super Sharp eyeliner.

8. I curled my lashes and applied Cover Girl Lash Blast mascara.

9. I filled my brows using Anastasia Duo Brow Powder in Brunette.makeup for brown eyes
