Everybody loves the color red on Valentines Day, so I thought for this FOTD, go red. This looks emphasis is on the lips. Red lips can be overpowering, but if you keep the rest of the face simple, it can be pulled off.
For the eyes I used a neutral tones, like in my Physicians Formula Shimmer Strips eyeshadow in Brown Eyes. I used the lightest champagne color for all over the lid, and a mid-tone brown in the crease and slightly on the outer V. To make the eyes interesting, I used a felt tip liquid liner (Loreal Lineur Intense in Carbon Black) to make a thick cat-eye on the top lash line and halfway on the bottom lash line. I finished the eyes off with mascara.
For the cheeks, I contoured under the cheek bones using a darker colored powder and highlighted the cheek bones and above the cupids bow with a shimmer highlighter like Wet n Wild 832D.
For the lips I outlined the lip with a red lip liner (Wet n Wild 717) and shaded it in for even wear. I applied NYX Snow White lipstick on my lips, blotted and applied a bit more.
Tomorrow is Valentines Day! I will choose a look, or combination of looks, or a completely new look and post it before I go out on my date.
