hey guys so for today's video i created this bright blue eyeshadow look with the new elf
cookies and dreams eyeshadow palette and some of the collection as well so if you want to see how
i got this eyeshadow look and my thoughts on the collection go ahead and keep on watching so i got
the whole cookies and dreams collection from elf and it came in this super cute glass jar it has a
little lid on it too but i can't fill it up right and it came with these cookies in it and they
were like freaking delicious but anyways look how cute this little pr is so there's a lot of stuff
in this collection i'm definitely going to focus on the eye shadow today as usual here is what the
palette looks like it's kind of neutral with some pops of blue in there we have the
cookies and dreams brush set i love like the black swirls there is a face sponge this overnight face
mask and then there's four eyeshadow sticks there's a brown a blue a black and a white
there's a little lip exfoliator and then there's three lip glosses and one of these is like
black i'm so confused by this so maybe i'll try that so whenever i get a full collection from
a brand i don't open and use everything if i know i'm only going to use it once for a video
because i'd rather donate the unused products to someone who will use them you know multiple
times so i'm not going to be using like the brush set or the face sponge because i have
products that i like better that i want to use but of course i'll use the eyeshadow palette today
maybe one or two of the eyeshadow sticks and probably one of the lip glosses so let's
zoom in and try out this eyeshadow palette here's what the palette looks like close up
based off my first impression i'm really drawn to like just this rich brown and this blue right here
i do like that the two brown shades are matte you got like a highlight shimmery blue another shimmer
blue and i think this is a shimmery black i'm gonna try my best to incorporate some blue today
into this look so let's get started i'm gonna pop open the blue no budge eyeshadow stick here
and i might just apply this all over my lid so it's kind of like a baby blue color oh and then
can i blend it out kind of okay trying something kind of different than what i normally do but i'm
gonna apply this all over my lid up into my crease and just like really quickly buff it out let's see
if this works because i want this to be a good base for like one of the blue shimmer eyeshadows
just like drawing this on and then i'm just gonna use my finger and kind of blend out any edges
it is called the no budge eyeshadow stick so i'm assuming once it's dried down it's
not going to move so i'm working pretty quickly here i'm taking a flat brush
trying to get these edges and then i'm going to take this brush i'm using a
sigma e58 in this darker blue and i'm just going straight on top of that little base
you can see i'm like really getting this brush right into like my eye socket
just stamping it around getting a nice round shape here hopefully you can see the sparkle
of that shadow it's very pretty but not like too overwhelming can we do that the other eye
you could probably use the white base for this too if you wanted
i really like how they kind of took this like cookies and cream idea
and added blue to it like that's just so pretty all right we got a sloppy blue mess
let's make this look prettier i'm gonna take a sigma e27 with
this light brown all right and i'm going to use that to softly blend around the edges of the blue
all right that's getting better now i'm going to add this blue and just using that to blend again
so you can see how much softer this now looks compared to this side
okay now i'm gonna go back with my blue shimmer and just touch that up on my lid
so this time i'm not gonna bring it super high into my crease because my crease is blended now
i don't know if you can tell but i do have a decent amount of blue fallout on my under
eyes which is fine that's why i did my eyes first and now i'm gonna do my foundation
i'm gonna go do my base makeup off camera and then we'll finish up the eyes together
all right i did my base makeup and i'm not super happy with it but let's keep going
i want to add like a smudgy smokey black eyeliner because that will kind of help with the craziness
of the blue if that makes sense so i'm gonna start by taking my favorite black eyeliner pencil which
is the house labs gel kohl liner in punk i'm actually gonna start this just in my waterline
and then what i'm gonna do is take that same blue shade on a little e21 smudge brush and
kind of smudge out that black and hopefully not make too big of a mess with the blue
so i'm applying the blue on my lower lash line
and the black kind of helps darken it a little bit now it looks like a really pretty blue black
down there i will blend it out more don't worry let's do the other eye
all right so i got that down now i'm going to take a little pencil brush with the
baby blue shade and i'm going to use that to kind of soften the lower lash line
so you can kind of see this size softer than this one but i still want it to look
pretty dramatic you know
and now i'm going to take a little bit of the deepest shadow and i'm going to
add that to the lower lash line just to make it a little blacker
then i'm going to take more of that black shadow and just kind of smudge it along my top lash line
just like that i'm just going to pop any highlighter you like in the inner corner
and some of that under the brow all right now i'm going to pop on some mascara and lashes all right
my lashes are on and i'm wearing my brand the bright lashes and i'm wearing the style lush okay
like i said earlier i'm not loving my base makeup i should have used my new nars foundation but i
didn't but i wanted to give just a little tip on blush especially for such a bright blue look like
this so for my blush i went with something with more of a pinky peach undertone so it'll contrast
nicely with the blue but here's what i did i first went in with the rare beauty liquid blush in bliss
i hate this formula but i really wanted this color so i did a layer with that wasn't super happy with
it so i went on top with the new color pop little what's the valentine's day blushes and the let's
dance color so you can see like it's a pretty intense color but you really want to be able to
see the blush on your cheeks especially since your blue is so bright does that make sense
anyways let's try out one of these lip glosses i just lined my lips with mac whirl nothing crazy i
have to open this black lip gloss i'm scared but i need to know i just need to know okay
smells just like cookies and cream oh my gosh all right
oh okay it's black what if i just put it on i just i just want to know what's going to happen
you know
oh my gosh this smells delicious kind of looks like i got a bruised lip don't like it but
that's what that looks like on my lips all right with this look i'm
just gonna use one of my go-to's which is huda beauty buttercup
i'm gonna pop this gloss on top it's white but i'm going to assume it's clear that's all good
i'm not a fan of this applicator alright and this is my final look with the elf
cookies and dreams collection i did really like this eyeshadow palette today like all
the shades worked perfectly fine especially that deep blue shimmer that i pretty much put all over
my eye it's a super pretty bright blue and i think it's gonna stay pretty well especially with that
blue cream base i put on underneath it let me know your thoughts on this collection
and whether or not you're going to pick anything up i would love to know and i hope
