hey guys so for today's video i created this gorgeous green look with the micaela and glam
light part 2 palette my audio is a little off right now just for this first clip but don't worry
i did also test out the new hourglass foundation in this video so if you want to see how i did this
full face of makeup and my thoughts on the new foundation go ahead and keep on watching
all right so today i want to dig into the green shade so i'll probably be sticking to like these
two rows right here so let's get started so i already primed my eyes with the rear
beauty eyeshadow primer and i set that with a translucent powder i'm going to start with
the shade 13 on a sigma e25 and this shade is going to go throughout my entire crease
and i am dipping back into the shade a few times to really build up this shade
now i'm going to take the shade cody james on
the same brush and i'm going to use that to deepen up the crease
these shades are almost making like a seafoam green color but it's really pretty
now i'm going to take more of that cody james shade on a sigma e54
and i'm going to pack that on the outer part of my lid
and i am connecting it into the crease
and then i'm going back to my e25 with a little more of that shade
13 on it and i'm just blending that out
and blending with 13. so i know for sure i'm gonna use some of the shimmers and i think i
want to make this like pretty intense so i'm gonna add some black to this look but before
i add any black i wanna make sure this is nice and blended so i'm gonna take a skin
tone color powder on a sigma e27 and i'm just gonna soften these edges right below my brow
so i'm going to take blackest black on a sigma e30 and i'm just going to add that to the very
outer corner just kind of doing like a little blob at first and then i will blend it out
and this is going to look kind of sloppy at first honestly all my looks look kind of sloppy at first
and now on my e27 i'm going to take a little bit of this shade
the commons i'm gonna tap that right over the black and use this shade to kind of blend it out
and you can see that i'm keeping these darker shades nice and low on my lid
i'm not bringing them super high up in my crease so when i'm looking straight ahead
you just see that little bit of darkness right there and i'm using the shade the commons because
it's kind of like a mixture of the black and the green shades so it's like exactly in between those
colors which makes it a really good kind of like a blending transition shade for this step
hope that makes sense and this e27 brush is perfect for this kind of stuff you see how
easily i can just like press the brush into my lid and just gently move it back and forth
and then i did pick up a little bit more of the black on this brush i'm just kind of
fluffing it on right here just to make sure it's like as deep and intense as it can be
black is definitely a shade you have to build up you can't just go in with a bunch of black and
hope for the best you really have to go layer by layer blend it out add more and just go back and
forth with it all right i feel pretty good about that darkness so far i might add more later but
we'll see how it goes now i'm going to add some shimmer which is like my favorite part because
the shimmers in this palette are freaking stunning okay i just like swatched a few oh i don't even
know this green is such a cool green i think i'm gonna do that one so i'm gonna take the shade
dreams on my finger look at how pretty this is and this is gonna go on the inner part of my lid
oh my goodness honestly i would buy this palette just for the shimmers are you kidding me and then
i'm very gently bringing it into that black but not going all the way to the outer corner
i don't think i've ever used a green that's like this color before
it's so pretty i can't get over this so i'm gonna take my sigma switch
and i'm gonna take my e25 and just get all this pigment off of this brush because
there's a lot of green on here and then i'm just gonna gently blend around that shimmer
and now i'm going to do the same thing with my e27 get all that pigment off
and i'm just going to gently tap where the black is meeting that shimmery green
if you need help blending for this step you could go back to the shade
the commons and just add a little bit right here now i'm just going to take a makeup
wipe i really don't have much fallout but i'm just going to clean up this line right here
so i'm happy with how that looks so far and now let's go do some face makeup together because i
have a new foundation i want to try on camera all right i got my hair slicked back today let's do
some face makeup so i bought the new hourglass ambient soft glow foundation because this just
sounded amazing to me let me pull it up on sephora alright so this is a 58 foundation it's vegan
natural finish liquid formula long wearing medium coverage and cruelty free and it says it's a
weightless liquid foundation that delivers buildable medium coverage with a light diffusing
effect for up to 16 hours so long wearing medium coverage natural finish sounds perfect to me my
shades gonna be a little dark though i got the shade 6.5 and i'm on like the last day of my fake
tan like i really should have scrubbed it off today but i really wanted to try this today for
the first time so if it's too dark for me we're just going to ignore that i'm going to start by
applying the say glowy super gel in star glow i've been wearing this under like all of my foundations
and it just looks so freaking good i kind of like it better than like the charlotte tilbury
because it's more hydrating and kind of easier to apply than like the whole wand thing so i like
that this isn't a pump and it just feels really good on the skin because it has like a nice like
gel texture to it all right you can see i have some blemishes on my face i may have picked at it
anxiety so let's try this okay i'm gonna start with like two pumps maybe one and a half
this is gonna be so dark oh boy and i'm just gonna dot some of that on my face
okay and let's start on this side just using my real techniques sponge
and i will bring it down my neck don't worry
i almost feel like it's a little tricky to blend like i feel like it dries down pretty
fast also the thing with short hair now is that like i have to bring my foundation on my ears
or else you can just like really see the color difference okay so i definitely feel like it looks
good but i feel like i had to use a lot of product but it doesn't look like cakey or thick on my skin
and i definitely would agree with the medium coverage because it definitely didn't cover
everything on my face but it looks pretty good but i'm not like blown away by it right now i also
would agree that it has a natural finish like it's not dewy it's not matte i'm glad i put the say
super glow underneath it i mean it's not bad so far but i guess we'll see how other products layer
on top of it so now to spot conceal even more i'm going to take the nars soft matte concealer
and then while that's sitting i'm going to take the sigma under eye brightening duo just
going to mix those two shades together and apply that under here with my eyes
whoa what what did i just say okay so i mix those two shades together and i'm
applying that with my finger under my eyes now i'm gonna blend in that nars concealer
and then for my under eyes i'm going to take the anastasia magic touch concealer
and while the concealer is kind of sitting i'm going to take the rare beauty always an
optimist mist and just spray all over my face is feeling a little dry and
that's not from the foundation because honestly i was kind of feeling dry before
i started filming so i'm not going to blame hourglass on that okay let's blend this in
and then i'm gonna set my under eyes with the rcma no color powder
this is the best under eye powder in the
world so sigma just came out with these two new setting brushes and i have been loving these
i use the bigger one for all over my face and i use the smaller one for blush and bronzer but they
work beautifully so i'm going to take the f 24 all over powder it's the bigger one and the coast
cloud set powder i'm just going to lightly set my face and i do this with all my foundations so i
know i'm testing out a new foundation today but i still want to do like my regular base routine
and now i'm going to take the sigma matte bronzer in light
i'm going to see if light works because i don't want to use medium because i don't want to be
too bronzed since my foundation is already pretty dark so we're going to try the light
one today and i am using that other new brush it's the f12 setting powder brush
but i honestly really like this shape for blush and bronzer i feel like i'm always
switching up my blush and bronzer brushes i just love trying new brushes for this step
and now for blush i've still been using the bare minerals blonders
like crazy i have all three shades and i just kind of like hold them up to my face
and see which one i'm feeling i mean with this green eyeshadow i kind of want to go a little
coppery i feel like so i think i'm gonna do a kiss of copper and again i'm using that same f12
and now i'm going to highlight my face with the sigma sizzle and i'm using a sigma f03 brush
this is such a pretty highlighter i literally use it like every day all right let's finish
up the lower lash line i'm going to clean off that e30 i used on my sigma switch and
i'm going to take more cody james and i'm going to apply that along my entire lower lash line
and then i'm going to take more of that shade 13 and i'm just
going to use that to soften up the lower lash line
now i'm going to take a clean blending brush and just kind of blend over everything
this is a sigma e33 all my blending brushes are pretty dirty right now with all these pigments
now i'm going to take the shade glaze on a sigma lo4 pop that in my inner corner
and then i am going to add a little bit of the black to the outer part of my lower lash line
i'm gonna go pop on some mascara and lashes and then i'll show you the full face
okay so for some reason my audio is gone on this last clip i don't know what happened
but i did pop on my bright lashes and i'm wearing my half lash and flare you almost can't really see
it with the black eyeshadow but i really wanted you to be able to see the green eyeshadow so i
thought the little half lash would be cute and then on my lips i'm wearing the patrick todd lip
cream and she's secure in the sigma lip gloss in brilliance and that is the full face i love
how this look turned out these green shades are freaking stunning let me know what other color
combos you want to see with this palette because i want to do so many more videos with it so i hope
