Spring/Summer makeup look | A full face of Too Faced Makeup

Wednesday 31 May 2017


Spring/Summer is my favourite time of the year for sporting a natural makeup look with a pop of fruity freshness. A luminous base, natural eyes, bronzed and blushed cheeks with a bright poppin' lip - this is by far the best way to create the perfect summery makeup look that lasts all day long, doesn't look too bright and encapsulates the way we want to feel when the sun is shining brightly.



Too Faced is definitely my favourite makeup brand ever! I adore their ethics, packaging and the formulations that they use also. I have decided to a dedicated post on my top Too Faced products to create the most amazing face of makeup for Spring and Summer! Warm melon hued tones, a glow-y base, natural eyes and a sun-kissed complexion, this face of makeup is the perfect look for this time of the year, and I couldn't think of a better brand to achieve this look with. Keep reading to see how I created this gorgeous Spring Summer Makeup Look!


FACE

Born This Way Foundation: Pearl 

The Born This Way Foundation in Pearl is the second lightest foundation shade that Too Faced sell. I have quite a pale skin tone with natural yellow undertones, which makes Pearl is the best shade for me. I did once try Snow out in-store but it didn't suit me at all and had too many pink undertone pigments. If you have a similar skin tone to me (with mainly yellow hues) then Pearl will be a perfect match for you too. I absolutely adore this foundation to pieces - it's oil-free, which is a godsend for me and has an undetectable medium-to-full coverage. Infused with Coconut Water, Alpine Rose and Hyaluronic Acid, this foundation feeds your skin with nutrients as well as covering up any imperfections, blemishes or uneven skin areas. The formula isn't too thick, nor too thin and a little goes a long way. This product covers all blemishes, dark circles, blue toned veins or skin and looks seamless when applied. For this makeup look I... used two pumps of this super creamy foundation and buffed it in using my favourite Spectrum Collections foundation brush.

Born This Way Concealer: Very Fair

Although the Very Fair concealer has pink under tones, I really love this high-coverage concealer for beneath my eyes and for covering up any unruly blemishes and spots. I wanted the lightest possible concealer shade when I got this so that I could use this for highlighting as well as concealing. For this makeup look I... used the Born This Way Concealer in 'Very Fair' to highlight my cupids bow, neutralise the blue tone beneath my eyes and conceal any imperfections such as spots and blemishes.

Milk Chocolate Soleil Bronzer

Possibly the best bronzer I have ever used, this gorgeous Milk Chocolate Soleil Bronzer by Too Faced smells exactly like a milk chocolate bar - YUM! The formula of the powder is matte, which is perfect for the summer months and perfect for me too as I'm not too keen on bronzers with a shimmer to them. This bronzer blends really well, doesn't look orange and isn't at all patchy! For the pale gal that I am, this bronzer sees me through the cool spring and the hot summer months so well. For this makeup look I... buffed some of this bronzer into the contours of my cheeks, all the way along my jawline and around my hairline too. I used this sparingly and built it up gradually.

Love Flush Blush: Love Hangover

Around a year ago I started to get into wearing blush on a daily basis and since then, I haven't stopped. This Love Flush Blush is by far the best and most pigmented, long-lasting blush I own. When I got this blush, I didn't want to get a blush that was too pink, too brown or too bright, I soon settled with Love Hangover and ever since first using it, I've been utterly obsessed. Not only does the packaging look like a Polly Pocket (which I was obsessed with when I was much younger than I am now), but the pattern/motif that's stamped on the blush itself is breathtakingly pretty and super cute! Love Hangover is a pretty coral hued blush, which isn't too bright and blends seamlessly. Lasting for 16-hours without smudging, wearing off or fading, this beautiful blush is perfect for both spring and summer and I for one just cannot get enough of it. For this makeup look I... used the smallest amount of this super pigmented blush and buffed it onto the apples of my cheeks before getting clean brush and buffing it into the foundation and bronzer for a seamless natural look.


Eyes

Natural Eyes Eyeshadow Palette

Eyeshadows by Too Faced are by far my favourites. They're always so pigmented, pretty and achieve the most amazing eye looks imaginable. This super natural palette is incredibly chic and a Too Faced bestseller. Comprising of 4 matte shades and 5 metallic and shimmer shades, this gorgeous palette can create an array of eye looks from dark and sultry to light and shimmery - this palette is definitely my staple palette and a holy grail makeup product that I don't know how I'd live without it! Let me talk you through the different shades: DAY: Heaven, a silky matte cream hue; Cashmere Bunny, a silky matte mushroom shade; and Expresso, a dark and sultry matte brown (perfect for the crease and outer V). CLASSIC: Silk Teddy, the most gorgeous rose gold shimmer shade (probably my most used shade from the whole palette); Push-Up, a shade deeper than Silk Teddy, a pretty rose gold shade which is perfect for the outer V and lower lash line; and Erotica, a deep brown metallic, perfect for the crease. FASHION: Nudie, a beautiful matte light beige/mushroom shade; Honey Pot, the prettiest most shimmery honey hued shade that highlights the eye beautifully; and Chocolate Martini, a silky matte shade with flecks of brown metallic micro glitter. For this makeup look I... followed the steps from the handy booklet that comes included to achieve a 'Classic' eye look. I used Silk Teddy all over my lid and blended it up to my brow bone, I then used Erotica on my outer-V and blended it into my crease, before packing Push-Up onto the middle section of my lid and then blending together.

Better Than Sex Waterproof Mascara

The original Better Than Sex mascara used to be my ultimate favourite ever mascara - it made my lashes big, bold, long and volumous - I just couldn't get enough, but after a while I tired of it due to it transferring beneath my eye throughout the day and making my eyes look dark and smudgy. If you found the above happened to you also, but loved how the mascara made your lashes look, then the Waterproof Better Than Sex mascara will be music to your ears. For this makeup look I... used two coats on the top lashes and one coat on the bottom.

Brows

Bulletproof Brows: Universal Brunette

Brow pomades spiralled into the world of beauty predominantly when ABH released her Dip-Brow Pomade. From then onwards, pomades were splashed across all social media and the world went crazy for them. Bulletproof Brows by Too Faced is a combination of a powder, gel, pencil and setting wax all in one. I use the shade Universal Brunette and this is so perfect for my skin, hair and brow tone, but they also have Universal Taupe. The product locks down to your brows after 60 seconds to create bullet-proof brows that won't budge, smudge or wear off - it also makes them waterproof too, which is perfect for the warmer months, especially if your skin is prone to becoming oily when hot, this means you can also go swimming without the fear of losing your brows in the sea. For this makeup look I... took a tiny, amount of product on the hard-angled brush and gently applied it to my brows. I followed the natural shape of my brows with the product and then blended with the spoolie.

Lips

Melted Lipstick in Melted Melon

I have adored Too Faced's Melted Liquid Lipsticks for YEARS! I love the formulation, the pigmentation, the colour longevity and the beautiful shiny finish that they achieve. I own 5 of these, including Melted Melon and they're honestly absolutely gorgeous. My favourite shades would have to be Melted Fuchsia and of course, Melted Melon. The Melted Lipsticks are so easy to apply due to the silky, velvety applicator which means you don't need a brush for application. The shade Melted Melon is perfect for the sunny months due to the tropical vibe that the lipstick gives off. For this makeup look I... used the tip of the lipstick for seamless and natural application. i started in the centre of my lips and worked my way out being as gentle as I could be.


What are your thoughts on this beautiful makeup look? I adore creating this look day in and day out - it's easy, takes barely any time and looks amazing once applied. Not only does it look great after application, but even up to 10 hours later, every component of this makeup look is still in tact, still looking perfect and still looking glow-y, pretty and as spring-like as can be!
