To kick off our GLITTER WEEK we are proud to welcome Jill from Being Spiffy. Jill specializes in makeup and glitter is definitely on her list. Take it away Jill:
Hey, I'm Jill from BeingSpiffy and I'm super excited to be with A Couple of Craft Addicts
today to share my glitterlicious makeup!
A lot of people think that wearing glittery makeup will turn them
into an '80s disco diva but without the snazzy dance moves.
And below is how you actually look in gorgeous glitter
Glitter is completely wearable for women of almost any age. The
trick is using it in moderation.I used three "sizes" of
glitter for this look. Large on my eyes, medium on my lips, and fine on my
cheeks.
I lined my upper eyelid with Urban Decay heavy metal eye liner HeavyMetal Glitter Eyeliner
in Distortion.
It's an iridescent glitter in a clear base
that can be layered over any color of eyeshadow or eyeliner. What I love about
this liner is once it's dry, the glitter stays put. It won't slide into your
eyes which can be painful and dangerous.
My lip gloss is Dazzleglass in Money, Honey by MAC.
No one wants to use a chunky glitter on their lips, it's too uncomfortable!
Make sure the shimmer isn't coming from thick flakes, but micro glitter or
particle pearls.
The slight shimmer on my cheekbones is a sparkle powder. Sparklicity in Pure Nude is a versatile
powder that can be worn on the eyes, cheeks, or lips. It creates a
micro-sparkle effect that reflects light like nothing else. A little goes a
long way, so use a glitter like this to highlight your brow bones, cheekbones,
or the center of your lower lip to create a pout.
So there you have it! Leave the heavy-duty glitter for craft projects and pick up some refined shine for your face just in time for summer.
