Red Floral Hijab Makeup

Hola Amigos!

So I've been busy setting up a small business selling general muslim apparel (such as hijabs, dresses, abayas etc).

I've recently created a facebook page for it, but there is still a lot of work to be done.
I would love for anyone to support me and like my page (even though it's new and has basically nothing on it right now :P).

I decided it would be fun to incorporate hijab patterns and my love for makeup.

Hope you guys enjoy these photos.

love, Maria

Ocean Eyes

FYI, I post pictures of the eye shadows used in my tutorials, not to tempt you to buy them, but to make it easier for you to find eye shadow duplicates that you may already have, or are easily available where you live. Please don't feel like you have to have all the same products to get the look. You can definitely buy these same colors elsewhere, maybe even for a better price :).

Smokey Eye

So last week I had a "skincare class". It's basically a class you do with a number of women (usually three or more), where you give them all facials and introduce them to Mary Kay products.

After the facials were done and the girls got to relax upstairs, my sister's friend Fatima asked me to do a look on her for fun. I wanted something a little dramatic so I opted for a smokey eye.

Enjoy!

And big thanks to beautiful Fatima for giving me her beautiful eyes to play with!

Priyanka Chopra Makeup Look

I think Priyanka Chopra is exceptionally beautiful. Most of her makeup looks are rather neutral with a very earth-tone lip colors. Her eye makeup is usually just down to a dark liner and some shadow to smudge it out. 

This is one look from the cover of Vogue (India) that really stood out to me.  It’s absolutely beautiful. It has the general simplicity of her daily makeup routine, but incorporates more pink hues, instead of her usual brown. Plus, you can’t leave out that smoked out brown shadow that she sports really well

I tried to recreate this look to the best of my ability as it was hard to distinguish the texture of the lipstick and if the blush was matte or shimmery.

Here’s the look:

** The rest of my face is described below.**

EYES:

1.Take shade number 2 and pack on outter lid.

2. Take shade number 3 and pack on inner lid and blend towards outer lid

3. Use color number 4 to bridge color 2 and 3 together by blending the colors together

4. Pack color number 1, and pack on outer V and inner lid.

5. Lightly blend eye shadows up towards your outer crease using a shade number 4

6. Take shade number 5 and use as highlight underneath your brow. Take some more and lightly blend down into the outer crease.

7. Take black eye pencil, I used Milani eye pencil, and line the lash line

8. Take Shadow number 1 again, and use it to smudge out your liner

9. Curl lashes, I used a Revlon curler

10. Apply generous amount of black mascara to lashes

**Tip: Although you may love your makeup in person, take a test photo to see how it looks on camera. A lot of times “perfect” makeup in person, becomes very washed out on camera.

LIPS:

1.fill lips with L.A girl auto lip pencil in mauve

2. layer Mac lipstick  Honeylove over lips

3. layer Mac lipstick Kindasexy over lips

**L.A girl lip pencils do not contain any carmine in ANY of their lip pencils/lipsticks.

**Mac shades Honeylove and Kindasexy do not contain carmine.

FACE:

1.Foundation: Revlon Photo-Ready

2.Mac studio fix powder in C4

3. Use NYX Expresso blush to contour cheeks, then blend blush up to the apples of the cheek and out to the temples.

4. Use NARS Albatross as a highlight on the cheeks.

Voila! Hope you enjoyed the look!

Toodles!
