Face of the Day: Summer Peach

I filmed a tutorial for a shimmery, summer-inspired look with lots of peach elements. This is a spin on your classic neutral, daytime smoky eye. Since my webcam doesn't represent colors too accurately, here are some photos of the finished look:

Products used to achieve this look:

(1) Urban Decay Primer Potion

(2) ELF Essentials All-Over Color Stick - Golden Peach

(3) ELF Studio Shimmer Palette

(4) BH Cosmetics 88 Shimmer Palette

(5) ELF Waterproof Eyeliner Pen - Black

(6) CoverGirl Lash Exact Waterproof Mascara - Black

(7) Revlon Fabulash Waterproof Mascara - Black

(9) ELF Studio Blush - Peachy Keen

(10) Revlon Matte Lipstick - Smoked Peach

(11) Rimmel London Royal Gloss - Peach Crush

PS: My face routine, for those wondering --

(1) Rimmel London Stay Matte Foundation in 200 - Soft Beige, applied with an ELF Studio Line Powder Brush.

(2) L'Oreal Visible Lift Under-Eye Concealer in Light-Medium, blended over dark circles with a fluffy shadow brush.

(3) For blemishes, I used the Coastal Scents Camo Quad in Medium, applied with a synthetic concealer brush and patted in with my fingers.

(4) In order to maintain the dewy finish, I opted not to use a setting powder.

(5) This is the foundation I apply when I'm about to film or photograph; it is very full-coverage. I would generally not wear this out, especially during the summer!
