Drugstore: Bronzy Eyes

Hi guys! Yvette here with an affordable makeup look. All the products I used I bought at CVS, but they are available almost everywhere, Ulta, Rite Aid, Walgreens, online and so on..
When I filmed my "What's in my Prom Bag" I also filmed this look but I messed up during editing and had to re-film this look. You probably can't even tell, but I just thought I'd let you know. The only thing I did different was I applied a liquid liner instead of a pencil.
For this tutorial I wanted to do something that you could wear during the day and at night. The colors definitely say day time but the lashes say night!
The colors of this look will definitely complement any skin tone and you can definitely change stuff and make it your own ;-)

Quick Tip: Correcting Imperfections

Hi guys! Yvette here with another quick tip. Here are all the steps. It may seem like a lot but I think its important to take your time and do them, especially if you're going to be photographed for a special event, or if this imperfection really bothers you. This will only take an extra 5 minutes, if that ;-)

STEP 1: Apply foundation
STEP 2: Apply the correcting concealer = that is equal to the imperfection {pack it on instead of smudging}
     A. GREEN helps correct REDNESS
     B. PINK helps correct BROWN spots and GREY spots
     C. YELLOW helps correct PURPLE based under eye circles
     D. PEACH/ ORANGE / SOFT ORANGE is for BLUE
STEP 3: Set it with a translucent powder (pack it on so it sets in place)
     * you could also use a correcting correcting powder like PEACH by MAC or dark RICE powder by Youngblood
STEP 4: Apply your regular concealer (pack it on do not smudge)
STEP 5: Apply your face powder (lightly dust it on)

THE KEY IS PACKING AND LAYERING ;-)

Full list of products:
Revlon Photo Ready Foundation (not in video)
Graftobian Correcting palette 30277 (purchased at IMATS)
http://www.graftobianmakeup.com/commerce/product.jsp?prodId=1917&catId=1021
MAC Prep + Prime Transparent powder
Revlon Photo Ready concealer
MAC Skinfinish Natural

If you have brown/grey spots...
...you're a candidate for the PINK concealer

If you have...
...try the GREEN concealer

If you have purple circles...
... try the YELLOW concealer with (optional) yellow powder

If you have blue bags...
... try a SOFT ORANGE./ PEACH concealer, and set it with a peach powder
