Now that the holidays are here, it is amazing how busy everyone is! Between holiday shopping, preparing for celebrations and recovering from those celebrations, there are are just not enough hours in the day. In my final post with the Burt’s Bee Lip Crayons, I’m showing how just changing out your lippie can make a big difference in your overall look! I fully admit that I’ve become obsessed with these lip crayons, they have a creamy matte finish and last for hours. While there are 6 shades currently, I’m hoping that more shades are released soon!
I started with just a very basic eye look. I primed my eye and then put a matte vanilla shadow all over the lid, up to the brow bone. I have a light brown in my crease and dark brown liner on just my upper lash line.
I paired this basic look with Sedona Sands, which is a fantastic nude shade on my lips! I love that it has just a little bit of pink in the nude tone, it keeps the color from washing me out. This is look is perfect for every day, whether I’m home with my newborn or we’re out running errands together!
By trading out Sedona Sands for Hawaiian Smolder, I’ve added some fun color to the look. I would probably wear this look for the same things, I love a bright lippie just for every day, but it would also be great for going out to dinner. I’ve layered a little bit of Burt’s Bees Lip Gloss in Spring Splendor over the Hawaiian Smolder, just to add a bit of shine and dimension to my look. Over in the Burt’s Bees Lip Tip Library you’ll find a lot of great color combinations!
For the last look, I wanted something more dramatic that you could easily wear to a party. I started with the same eye look as earlier, but added a bit of a shimmery nude shadow over my lid. It was just enough to pick up the light, but the look is still very light. I then used an angled brush to apply a dark brown shadow along both the upper and lower lash lines, really adding more emphasis to my eyes. It only took about 2 or 3 minutes to do this, making this a quick and easy day to night look!
I wore my new favorite red lippie, the Lip Crayon in Napa Vineyard, with the more dramatic eye look. There’s a little of the same Spring Splendor in the center of my lip for a little extra shine as well.
