Look of the Day - Berrylicious

Hellooo, it's been so sunny recently but still super cold. This is a colour I have been a tad bit obsessed with over autumn/winter, anything berry and burgundy toned I am loving! So this look is all about dark berry lips, a very popular trend these last two seasons.

For this look I started off with priming my eyes using my Urban Decay primer potion after my usual foundation routine. I then used this gorgeous bronze eye shadow by MUA in shade 30-Pearl all over my eye lid, which is highly pigmented for such a cheap eye shadow, 
I would definitely recommend MUA make up as I think they are really good for such a good price. Then from my H&M palette I applied the light purple shade (one at the bottom) on the crease of my eye lid above the bronze. Using a golden cream colour from this same palette I highlighted my brow bone and then lined my tight line and water line with my FX black eye pencil. I then coated my top and bottom lashes with my Falsies Volume Express mascara by Maybelline. For my cheeks I wanted to keep it simple and so I applied a golden bronzer which gave it a lovely shimmer but not too much colour, as the eyes and lips are very bold in this look, the cheeks needed to be subtle.
On my lips I first applied my BodyShop lip and cheek stain to give my lips a base then put Vaseline on. I find that this helps lip liners and lipsticks go on better. I lined my lips with this dark berry Kiko lip liner in shade 710 and also filled in my lips. Then went over it with my BodyShop lipstick in shade 62 which is a bit more of a burgundy shade, as a pose to the dark lip liner but they both compliment each other very well. As you all know I love dark lip colours! 
Happy Monday :)
Enjoy
