So hello there guys,
I finally came around to do another blog post. Actually I already did this one, but my internet hates me and as I tried to upload the post, it broke down and deleted everything I did. So now let's try this again.
I wanted to do something fun, but easy to start of and so I decided on a tutorial for Disney Princess look, to be more precise a tutorial for Aurora, when she is wearing her princess dress.
So let's start with the tutorial. I began my makeup with some foundation. My skin tone is pretty light so I just used my normal foundation, but if you have a little bit more taned skin you might like to use a foundation, that's maybe one tone lighter than your actual skintone.
The foundation I used is my Astor skin match one, in the lightest tone. Be careful with this foundation, because there are two light tones, one for skin with a olive tone to it, which I use and one for a more pinkish skintone.
To put the foundation on my skin I used the fluffier side of my two-sided ebelin makeup brush.
Next I powdered my face with my Manhatten "soft compact powder" in No.1 (naturelle).
This gives your skin a kind of a porcelain complexion that you want to have for a Disney Princess look. To put this on I used the little sponge that comes with it, just because it doest make as much of a mess as a normal powder brush.
After that I used so blush for my cheeks. I used my "dark romance" cream blush from essence and my fingers to apply it, but any kind of pink blush will do. If you use the blush, apply it to the apples of your cheeks and use a bit more than you normally would, so you get sweet rosy cheeks.
I didn't use any contouring for this look, just because I have a slim face and it would put angles on my face where I wouldn't want them, but you can use some contouring down the sides of your nose, the hollow of your cheekbones and on the temples. Just make sure to blend it in properly, so you don't have any harsh lines.
Next up are your eyebrows. The good thing about Aurora is, that she has dark eyebrows so I didn't have to colour them in a different colour. I used my eyebrow pencil in dark brown from essence.
If you fill in your eyebrows, make sure that your pencil is sharp enough, so you can apply light strokes to fill in your eyebrows.
The thing if done next is use the light pink eyeshadow out of my Catrice "bright" pallette and apllied it under my eyebrows and down to the inner corner of my eye. I know a lot of people do it the other way around, but because this look is ought to be light I start with the light colours, so I can blend the others in properly.
Now I took a little bit darker pink eyeshadow, by essence called "summer breeze" (020), which I absolutly adore (I think it isn't sold anymore, so I am sorry but you can't buy it) and applied it on the rest of my lid. I apply my eyeshadow with one of these little aplicators it comes with, just because I don't really like my eyeshadow brushes. (I really have to get new once, but the once I want are quite expensive =( )
Than I took a bright pink eyeshadow from Manhatten "passion pink" and put it right next to my upper lashline.
The last thing I did eyeshadow wise, is I took a darkish purple eyeshadow and put it in my crease. Than I blended it out
After that I took my sharpie like waterproof black eyeliner from essence and applied it in a cat eye on my upper lid.
Next I took my "Miss Manga" mascara from Loreal, which I absolutly adore, and applied it to my upper and lower lash line.
I didn't use false lashes, because my lashes are quite long and you can't really tell the difference if I do, so I just don't do it. If you want though, you can put false lashes on your upper lid. Put the mascara on your lashes, cut the false once to the right size and put the glue on the lashes. Wait a bit until it's sticky and than press it onto your upper lashline, than wait a bit until it sticks there and apply another round of mascara just to blend in your lashes with the false once.
The last thing I did was, I took a light pink liptick from Douglas, out of their "Tangled - Disney Collection" (it is kind of old and they don't sell it anymore), but any other pinkish lipstick will do, and applied it to my lips.
Than i popped on my Aurora wig, just so you can see the finished look. But you can wear this look, probably every day because it's very light and soft and not only if your wear an Aurora costume.
So I hoped you enjoyed my tutorial! I will do a few other Disney Princess looks after this, some a little bit more artsy and some a classic as this one. The Disney Princesses I will use as an inspirartion will be, Rapunzel, Yasmin, Belle, Arielle, Mulan and Tinkerbell (I know she is not really a princess but well).
Bye guys!
Have a great day and put a bit of glitter in your life!
Love,
Lucy
