Merry Berry Makeup

I've already started receiving my invites to holiday parties! And I've been planning outfits, and of course, playing around with makeup looks. Today I'm sharing a Merry Berry look--think silver smokey eyes and shiny berry lips. Let me just show you:

 And I created this using products from Mary Kay®. Here's what you'll need:

• Mary Kay® Brushes
• Mary Kay® Mascara
• Mary Kay® Blush
• Mary Kay® Mineral Eye Color – Granite 
• Mary Kay® Mineral Eye Color – Moonstone
• Mary Kay® Mineral Eye Color – Coal 
• Mary Kay® Eyeliner - Black 
• Mary Kay® Lip Liner - Plum 
• Mary Kay® NouriShine Plus® Lip Gloss - Sparkle Berry 

Let's start with the eyes:

First of all, the shadows and blush fit right into the compact, making application easy, and great for travel, too.

I like applying my eye shadow before applying foundation or concealer. I applied Granite all over the lid with the Mary Kay® brush--this has a gorgeous shimmer that reminds me of tinsel!

I flipped the brush over and used Coal in the outer corner. I blended it in and ran it under my bottom lash line to smoke it out. Then I added Moonstone into my inner corners and under my brows for highlight. 

Liner was applied to my upper lash line and smudged under my bottom lashes. Next came foundation, concealer, and powder. Mascara really brought this look together. It always does when I'm doing a festive eye!

To finish, I added blush, lip liner in Plum and this gorgeous lip gloss in Sparkle Berry. Put on your favorite party dress and you're ready to go!

I love the quality and affordability of Mary Kay®--they've got something for every one. And I love how this look can be completely personalized! Add more Granite onto the lower lash line for more sparkle. Add more Coal to make the smokey eye pop even more. I'll be adding more Sparkle Berry gloss (my fave) of course.
