FOTD: Gentle

Hello hunnies! Today I have quite a gentle makeup look for you (at least I think it's gentle). I got inspired to create this look by Tanya Burr when I saw her 'Fresh & Pretty Drugstore Makeup for School' tutorial. I've been actually wearing this look quite a lot lately. I really didn't expect I would love it that much because I tend to change my look every time I do my makeup (I at least do a different eye makeup/use a different shadow) but I just keep on recreating it. :)

I apologize for my hair... I was having a really bad hair day. :S I was also experimenting with my 'photography', because I wanted a different background than the usual 'curtains behind me background'. I mounted my camera on a tripod and snapped away... here's what I came up with. Please let me know what you think of the pictures. :)

What I used for this look:

Face:
♥ Illamasqua Skin Base foundation (in shade 3.5)
♥ Urban Decay De-Slick Mattifying powder
♥ Urband Decay b6 Vitamin-infused prep complexion spray
♥ Too Faced Chocolate Soleil bronzer (in Milk Chocolate)
♥ e.l.f. Blush & Bronzing cream
♥ Sleek Contour kit (I used the highlighter)

Eyes:
♥ theBalm Put a lid on it eyeshadow primer
♥ Sin eyeshadow (Urban Decay Naked palette)
♥ Virgin on the brow bone and inner eye corner (UD Naked palette)
♥ Maybelline One by One mascara
♥ e.l.f. Mechanical eyelash curler
♥ Catrice Eyebrow filler

Lips:
♥ Urban Decay Revolution lipstick (in Naked)

You could use a mineral foundation instead of a liquid one (that's what I do when I don't need a lot of coverage). I really love using Sin form my Naked palette as an all over lid color - I used to use it only as a highlighter but now I see it's really pretty as a stand alone shade as well. :) I used a bronzer for this look, but you could go with only a little blush and a bit of highlighter - that's totally up to you. 

Let me know what you think of the pictures and the look itself - would you or do you wear this kind of gentle looks or do you rather go for something a bit more dramatic? :D
