This is the photo I used for inspiration for the tutorial below. I love the look of big bright eyes, flushed cheeks and bronzed, dewey skin. Maybe we can’t all look like Victoria’s Secret models, but we can copy their makeup, right?? (Now I need someone to help me get that hair!) It’s easy to recreate this look using the Urban Decay palette and some of our favorite makeup products . . . all listed below.
Products Used:
(Clockwise from top left)
Tarte Amazonian Clay in Fearless
MAC Skinfinish in Soft and Gentle
Clinique CC Cream in Light Medium (gift with purchase for a limited time!)
Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer (Original)
Too Faced Better than Sex Mascara
Amazing Cosmetics Concealer in Medium Beige
Benefit Full-Finish Lipstick in Pinking of You
Clinique Long Last Glosswear in Clearly Pink
Remember how I said we can’t all look like Victoria’s Secret models?? Well . . . neither do they! Candice is obviously gorgeous in both of these photos, but I wanted to include a picture to show the power of some good photo editing. It’s easy to forget that we often try to live up to an impossible standard of beauty. Isn’t that crazy?
I hope you guys are enjoying warm weather somewhere . . . cause we woke up to a foot of snow. Boo. For more makeup tips and tricks like this one, check out our beauty section! Have a great weekend!
XOXO,

Awesome job, as always. You have inspired me to buy the Urban Decay eye shadow set 🙂 I know you did a smokey eye tutorial using MAC colors, any thoughts on using the Urban Decay palette shown here for a smokey eye? I always struggle when I buy a full palette like this with knowing what to do with all those colors! Thanks.
THANK YOU! That’s such nice feedback to hear! I actually would recommend the look I did with my friend Janine (found here: http://themomedit.com/2015/04/urban-decay-naked-palette-eyeshadow-tips/) and just go heavier with the darker colors. The Naked Palettes are my favorite because they’re versatile, highly pigmented, blend easily and come with an awesome brush . . . I use them for lots of different looks including a smokey eye! I would suggest putting each color on the inside of your arm, in the order that they’re in on the palette, and then taking a picture to refer back to . . . that way you can see what the colors look like on your skin. They so often look different in the palette vs on actual skin. Hope this helps! 🙂
Ooh, I loved this. Thank you! I am not great with makeup so I love the tutorial videos and I love the look you did here Scotti. I’ve been considering getting the Urban Decay Naked palette and this may have convinced me.
Try it! You won’t regret it! 🙂
