I recently published this instagram photo and some of you lovely ladies asked me to film a tutorial for the makeup look I was wearing, which is what I have for you today. My eye makeup look is slightly different, because I don't remember all the shades that I used the first time around, and I also toned down the intensity. On purpose. When I film a video knowing I won't be going outside that day, I always put on a few extra layers. My studio lights tend to 'absorb' makeup, meaning it always turns out less intense on camera than it actually is in real life, which is why I allow myself to be heavy-handed sometimes. But when I know I'll be walking around in public afterwards, I tone it down a notch to avoid the noticable cakyess and potential weird looks. Hence why this makeup tutorial turned out a bit meh. It's annoying, but let's roll with it, haha. When I was trying to come up with a new, appropriate title for the look, I asked my sister for suggestions, and she described it as the 'I'm going out with friends but I'm going home before they hit the club, because I'm way underdressed' look. While the title didn't make the cut, being a wee bit too long, I think she was spot on. Where would you wear this look?

Valentine's Day is less than a week away now, so I thought it would be more than appropriate to publish the soft, pink toned romantic make-up look I've been wearing a lot a few weeks ago. This video is actually a part of the Valentine's Day collab that we did with Madeline from Cappuccino and Fashion, so definitely go check out her video as well. She also filmed a make-up tutorial, but unlike me, she went for a bolder red lip look. Let us know how you like the videos and which look you would prefer wearing!

P.S. I'm planning to do more youtube and maybe even blog collabs starting March, so if you want to collaborate with me, drop me an e-mail (sandra.thepuzzleofmylife@gmail.com) and we can figure something out! :)
