Here's my very festive 4th of July makeup! I've never done white eyeliner before but I love how it looked and the way it turned out! I may have to buy a white liquid liner so I can do it more often, lol. Constructive criticism always appreciated!

-Estée Lauder Double Wear In 2W1 Dawn
-NYX HD Concealer in Light
-Laura Mercier Translucent Loose Powder
-Kevyn Aucoin The Sculpting Powder in Medium
-Too Faced Love Flush Blush Palette (Baby Love)

I applied my primer all over my face, focusing on my cheeks, with the fingers. I dotted on my foundation and blended with the Sigma F80. I applied my concealer under my eyes in a triangle, down the nose, and the Cupid's bow and blended with the Beauty Blender Micro Mini. I set under my eyes with the RT Setting Brush and the rest of my face with the Danielle Powder Brush. I contoured my cheekbones with the Morphe E8, applied my blush with the Danielle Blush Brush, and highlighted the tops of my cheekbones, down the nose, and the Cupid's bow with the RT Fan Brush.

I lightly filled in my brows with the pencil and set them with the gel

I applied my eye primer from lash line to brow with my finger. I applied Latte in and above the crease with the ELF Blending Brush. I applied Burgundy on the lid with the RT Base Shadow Brush and on the lower lash line with the blending brush. I drew a line of liner on my lash line and smoothed it out with the Danielle Angled Brush. I put a little of the jumbo eye pencil on the brush and used that to create the wing. Using the same brush I set the liner with the shade Linen. Using the same shade I put that under my brow and the inner corner with the ELF Defining Eye Brush to highlight. I also put the liner in my waterline. I applied one coat of mascara to the bottom lashes and two to the top.

I applied my lipstick straight from the tube.
