Valentine's Day with Younique Cosmetics!

I am sure most of you have heard of Younique whether you know it or not. The 3D Fiber Lash mascara is their thing...and let me tell you, it is a good thing!! My friend, Kael, over at LashesbyK.com is letting me tell you all about her mascara plus her other fabulous products!

So whether you are wanting to look hot for your significant other, a night out with the girls, or just to treat yourself at home, here are my favorite Younique products so far (I need to try more!) and how I created this make-up look in under 15 minutes! Pardon my messy braid! After-all, this wasn't a hair tutorial ;) haha!

Here is my before shot. This is ZERO make-up. None. I have blemishes and fine-line wrinkles (seriously, am I in high school or an old woman?) under-eye circles...you get it.  Don't worry, Younique fixes it all!

The products I used:

• Mineral Touch Cream Foundation in Taffeta
• Moodstruck Mineral Pigments in Curious,  Sexy,  Irresistible, and Glamorous
• Moodstruck Precision Pencil Eye Liner in Perfect
• Moodstruck 3D Fiber Lash Mascara (LOVE THIS STUFF!)
• Moodstruck Precision Pencil Lip Liner in Pouty
• Lucrative Lip Gloss in Luscious
• I didn't use it this time, but I also love the gloss in Luxe

First, I used the Mineral Touch Cream foundation. That is all! It totally smoothes out any blemishes. One step! Yea! Kael also raves about their BB Cream. It is on my list to try!

Now, let's talk about these GORGEOUS eye pigments!

You can use them dry or wet. Wet makes them a little more intense which is what I did today. I just dipped my brush into my adorable Anthropologie bowl of water (on sale here!) I shook off the excess water and then dipped it into my pigment of choice.


To achieve today's look, cover your whole lid with "Sexy". A sweet, subtle pink with some shimmer. Then I added "Curious" to my brow bone and the inner corners of my eyes. It is a nice shimmer highlighter. Don't be nervous by the word "shimmer". It looks beautiful, not cheesy! Then I took "Irresistible", a nice matte, neutral brown and put it from the middle of my lid to the outer corner creating that "V" shape and a nice shadow. I followed by using the deep plum "Glamorous" to line my eyes.

After applying these colors the key is to blend, blend, blend!!! That is what makes it look beautiful and soft and not hard.

After applying the pigments, use the precision eye liner to line the upper and lower lash line. I like to stay very close to the lash-line and create a soft line rather than drawing a dark line. However, if you are going out for a date night when you know the lights will be low, add a little extra liner...just don't go crazy!

Next is the BEST PART! The mascara! Y'all, I can't imagine wearing anything else. The photo on the left is regular mascara and the photo on the right is with the 3D Fiber Lash. It makes me feel and look like I am wearing falsies without the glue in my eyes and dramatic flashbacks from my dance team days.

The finishing touch: I used the Lip Liner in Pouty all over my lip. I finished it off by coating my lips in the beautiful red tinted gloss in Luscious!  Valentines Day is the perfect time to take red lips out
for a spin.

Ladies, these are all perfect products to treat yourself OR send your significant other this blog post as a hint!
