hey guys so i didn't post any videos last week because i felt like we all
needed to stop kind of reflect and do something to help the black lives
matter movement in the past week i have donated signed every petition i
have come across and i've been spending my time re-educating myself on racism
and the oppression that black people have been facing for decades i have
a couple videos that were ready to be posted they were filmed over two weeks
ago but i didn't want to come back to youtube and just post those like nothing
really happened i've been seeing so many threads and posts going around of black
owned companies including some beauty companies so i kind of took a look at
my own makeup collection and i found that i only own products from like
two black owned makeup companies one of them being juvia's place the other brand
i own products from is fenty but i feel like there's kind of mixed thoughts on
whether fenty is black owned because rihanna doesn't own a hundred percent
of her company part of her company is owned by lvmh's kendo which is owned
by a white guy so rihanna doesn't own 100 of her company but you guys know i
love fenty and their products so today i just wanted to place a spotlight on the
juvia's place brand and their palettes but then i also wanted to let you guys
know that i will be purchasing products from black owned beauty brands a few
that i want to purchase from is pat mcgrath surprisingly i don't own any pat
mcgrath palette so i gotta get on that horse and then there's uma beauty it's
uoma i'm not sure if that's how you say that i think i've heard their concealer
is amazing and then also beauty bakery and colored rain and ace beauty
i know that colored rain has some really gorgeous palettes so i'm really excited
to check out these companies and buy some new products and really diversify
my collection so i want to encourage you guys to do the same thing
and if you have any other favorite black owned beauty brands i would love to know
all right so let's get started and play with some eyeshadow so i have two
palettes from juvia's place the first one i bought a while ago is the saharan
palette and i have a couple videos with this palette on my channel i'm going to
link those down below for you but how beautiful is this and then the other
one i own is the masquerade mini and i like this palette because it's kind of
separated by like warm tones on the bottom like your neutral colors and
then some pops of colors up top i only have one video with this palette on my
channel where i use the neutral color so i think today i want to play with
some of these fun ones up here all right and let's see what we can do
i'm going to prime my eyes with some shape tape concealer
and then i'm going to set that with a little bit of powder i'm
going to start with zobo on a sigma e42 and i have a lot of
color on my brush and i'm just going to apply this in my crease
oh my god how beautiful is this color so freaking pigmented now
i'm going to take bori on the same brush and i'm going to place that
a little bit higher so kind of around the edges of that purple
even though this shades only a little bit lighter
now i'm going to clean off this brush on a veramona color switch
just to get all the extra shadow off of it so now i'm going to take the
same brush and kind of blend out this harshness right here
all right you can see that blend looks much smoother now now i'm
gonna go back to that zobo shade again on the same exact brush
and i'm going to pat that on my outer
corner and then i'm just blending it again into my outer crease
and then i'm also just going to bring whatever is left on
my brush down on my lower lash line
all right now i'm gonna clean up my blend a little bit because i
did blend just like super far out so i'm gonna take a foundation powder
and i'm gonna use a little e27 blending brush and i'm just gonna run along all
these edges to hopefully kind of lighten them up and just soften the whole look
now i'm going to take this shade zola on a sigma e58
and i did get my brush a little bit wet with some setting spray
so let's see how this applies and i'm going to go on the inner part of my
lid and i'm kind of applying the shade almost as if i did a half
cut crease so i'm making that like half moon shape right here
now i'm going to take a little bit of makeda on the same brush i think
i want this on like the entire outer part of my lid then for the
center right here i'm just going to overlap those two lid shades
until they look pretty blended together just kind of padding over it all right
so then i also picked up that purple on kind of the tip of my e58 i'm gonna add
that to the outer part of my lower lash line these shimmer shades do have a bit
of fallout so i would recommend doing your eyes first and then your foundation
yeah i got a lot of fallout down here and i'm just gonna
go back my e42 and just kind of blend over this purple down here
now i'm gonna take giza on a lo4 and i'm gonna go in my inner corner
this is kind of giving me like cotton candy vibes
i like it and then a little bit of that light shade right under my brow
and i think i want to do a wing with this look i haven't done a
wing in a long time but i'm going to use my fenty beauty fly liner
all right now i'm gonna go pop on some mascara and lashes all right
so i popped on some big lashes these are sophie bella lashes in the style
bali this is what the case looks like and i did try to pop
a little blue eyeliner in my waterline i used the wonder two
super stay liner in metallic turquoise it's not showing up as bright as
i wanted in my waterline but it's something and here is the final look
i am really digging these cotton candy vibes these shades are just gorgeous
and as you guys could clearly tell the juvia's places shadows are so stunning
they are pigmented blendable and an amazing quality so i hope you
guys enjoyed this video thank you so much for watching and
don't forget black lives matter
you
