I applied and blended my foundation with the RT Expert Face Brush. I applied my concealer under my eyes in a triangle, the center of the forehead, down the nose, the Cupid's bow, and the chin, and blended it all in with the RT Miracle Complexion Sponge. I set the concealer under my eyes with the shade Lyric from the Shade + Light palette and set the rest of my concealer with Lucid. I contoured my cheekbones, the chin, and jawline with the RT Contour Brush and the sides of my nose with the MAC 217 using the shade Sombre. I applied my blush to my cheeks with the ELF Bronzing Brush and my highlighter on the top of the cheekbones, down the nose, and the Cupid's bow with the RT Fan Brush.
I lightly filled in my brows with the pencil.
I applied my primer from lash line to brow with my finger. I applied my eyeshadow with the RT Base Shadow Brush all over the lid and slightly in the crease and blended out the edges with the ELF Blending Eye Brush. I filled in my tight line and waterline with the eyeliner and applied one coat of mascara on my bottom lashes and two coats on the top.
I applied the lipstick straight from the tube.
FIRST IMPRESSIONS:
Kat Von D Metal Crush Eyeshadow in Synergy: This eyeshadow is so pigmented and buttery soft! Even though it's so pigmented you can use the tiniest bit to get a little bit of color and build up from there so you can get the intensity of the shadow exactly how you like it. It also blends so easily and smoothly! I will definitely be picking up more of these shadows!
Urban Decay Matte Revolution Lipstick in Blackmail: PIGMENTED. This lipstick is so pigmented, one swipe gets the perfect color payoff! It also doesn't feel drying, which is great for my forever dry and chapped lips.

LOVE how that lipstick looks with your dark hair
Would you say the contour palette is worth it??
It's my birthday at the end of the month and I want to get something from sephora to get my free birthday gift

That lip color looks stunning on you! I've been wanting shade 1993 but now I want this shade too but I don't know if I would wear it. It's so dark but beautiful

Shreya and Tiia, I absolutely love the NYX HD Concealer, I use it and love it more than MAC Pro Longwear (:
Renay, I didn't realize until after I left the house that I forgot to curl my lashes lol

That looks great girl. Love everything. I actually just filmed a fall makeup look using this lippie but it was so hard to put on, like it was so dry!! I wonder if I got a bad batch or something

Thank you, Livi! My lipstick wasn't dry at all, it was a bit creamy and went on so easily! I would see about exchanging yours (:
