As you may remember, it’s Lipstick Week!  That means that today’s makeup tutorial will focus on the lips.  There’ll still be eye makeup, but it’ll be subdued.

We want the attention on our lips!

I’m calling this makeup tutorial Daily Lipstick Look.  Because, frankly, I couldn’t think of anything better.

And it is replacing the daily look for today.

In today’s look, you’ll also learn a bit of a cat eye using liquid eyeliner.

Let’s get started!

Pink is my favorite color.  Can you tell?

So, of course, I need to do a look with some great pink colors.  Heck, the vast majority of my clothes are pink.  I might as well match.

Today, I’m going to show you a super cute pink look that sort of reminds me of geranium flowers.  That’s why I’ve called it Geranium. Creative, no?

You may notice that the pictures in this tutorial are better than previous ones.  Yeah, I’m getting the hang of this.

So read on for the Geranium makeup tutorial.

Purple is so in right now.  I went to a clothing store the other day and almost everything on the racks had purple in it.  (It’s a shame.  I wish pink was in right now, but I guess purple is the new pink.)

In the makeup world, smoky eyes is in right now as well.  I decided to put these two trends together, so I created Plum Smoke.

Did you know that you can do a smoky eyes look without using any grey or black eye shadow?  It’s true.  The smoke in this tutorial is subtle, but still so totally adorable, without any of those colors.

This look also has a vintage feel based on how I did the eyeliner and mascara.  If you like vintage makeup techniques, then you’ll like this look.

Read on for the Plum Smoke eye shadow tutorial.

Soft Rust? Is that even possible?  Well, yes, when it’s on your eyes.

Today, I’ll be teaching you how to get a beautiful rusty colored makeup look on your eyes, as well as a soft rust color on your lips.  This look is going to be a bit more subtle than what you are expecting, I’m sure.

Where you wear this look depends on how comfortable you are with makeup on.  I could wear this anywhere, including work and on a date.  Those who aren’t used to a lot of makeup may want to limit this look only for special occasions.

So, get ready for the Soft Rust makeup tutorial.

Some of the looks I teach you guys are so out there, like the Rainbow Eyes tutorial, that you can’t wear them in most situations. To remedy that, I’m teaching you a look today that can be worn pretty much anywhere:

• To work.
• To school.
• On a date.
• To a family gathering.
• For a hike in the woods.
• During the day.
• At night.
• Even to a night club.

I call this look Simple and Clean because it has a freshness about it. You’ll look amazing while not having that much makeup on. At least it will seem that way anyway.

I actually got some of the idea for this look from the steps in the Vintage Pinup Girl Video, although I changed some things around.

Get ready, because we’re about to learn the Simple and Clean makeup tutorial.

Sometimes it’s really hard to think up a good name for one of these tutorials.

I chose ‘blueberry’ this time because of the colors of that fruit. On the outside, it is a purple blue color, and on the inside, it’s a lighter pink and red.

This makeup tutorial, Blueberry Eyes, keeps that color scheme. You’ll learn what products you can use, and how to apply the makeup in such a way as to replicate the end product. Fancy, right?

This tutorial is also a good example of how you can get great looks with inexpensive makeup.

Read on to learn how to do the Blueberry Eyes look through this makeup tutorial.
