New Year, New Video! | Cut Crease GRWM

     Hello Cuties~  I hope you are enjoying your holidays.  It's officially the new year, 2019!  I know people are sick of the whole "new year, new me" line, but I'm ready to make some changes for myself this year.  I've made it my goal to live a more positive life.  I've also made it my mission to be more productive this year.  Do you have any new year resolutions?

     To kick my year off on the right foot, I decided to get off my butt and put out a video.  Since I didn't create a Christmas look, I thought a new year look would be fun to try.  And when I think of New Year celebrations, I think of glitter and glitz!  Here's my finished look 

Products Used
FACE
  • rimmel stay matte primer
  • estée lauder double wear foundation
  • la girl pro concealer - chestnut
  • black radiance blush - toasted almond
  • black opal powder - medium
  • colourpop brow boss - soft black


EYES
  • urban decay primer potion
  • anastasia beverly hills - modern renaissance
  • the crayon case - box of crayons
  • juvia's place - masquerade
  • nyx glitter - 06 crystal
  • some random ebay palette
  • nyx epic ink liner
  • decorative eyelashes - no. 13 / no. 16


LIPS
  • colourpop lux lipstick - on display
  • nyx intense butter gloss - apple crisp

     I tried my hand at another cut crease makeup look.  I feel as though I did better than my previous attempts.  Perhaps I could've cut my crease higher buuut I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.  Besides creating new content for the new year, my purpose with this makeup look was to try out new makeup items.  I picked up two foundation samples recently, and got a new eyeshadow palette and eyebrow pencil.
     As far as the products I tried out, I like Colourpop's brow boss pencil.  It takes a little work but I think once I get my eyebrows waxed the pencil will work out a lot smoother.  I don't have a full opinion on the foundation just yet.  I decided to try out Estée Lauder's double wear foundation.  I don't think I applied enough so that's why I want to retry the foundation.  I was afraid of looking too cakey so I went light-handed.  I'm loving the Juvia's Place Masquerade palette!  I used it a little for this look but you'll see more of it in the future.
I hope you enjoy the video!

New Years Sparkle! (new year same ol' late me)

Forever tardy to the party, here's my New Years look!
I decided to reign in the new year with a very glittery and golden
"halo eye" and "glitter tears" to match!  Can't forget about the star
of the show, my highlight~  I finally got to really use my bolt balm
from Elektra cosmetics
RUNDOWN  

* I ♥ Makeup - Naked Chocolate , Golden Bar palettes
* Too Faced - Chocolate Bon Bons
* Milani amore matte lip creme - Beautiful
* Cherry Blossom #805
Diamond Lash - sweet eye
--- Glitters ---
* Elektra Cosmetics - Bolt Balm in "Midas Touch"
* Nyx glitter - Red
* fine gold craft glitter - Michaels
I think it's safe to say this actually turned out how I envisioned it.
It was fun and pretty simple actually.  I love glitter y'all I want to
wear it everyday!  Maybe not the glitter lips though, I was so afraid
I'd ingest the glitter!
(* ´;艸;)゛

To create this New Years look I used my new brushes that I got
for Christmas!
Galaxy Unicorn Brushes
     The back of the packaging labels each brush.  The hairs have a cool pattern on the top and the handles are so cute! TT  I find it adorable the box says "no unicorns were hurt in the making of this product" lol.  Performance wise, I really like the blush brush.  I believe I used the flat brush to apply my foundation and it did a nice job.  The eyeshadow brush is a bit big for what I was trying to do, but I will try using it again.
I on Beauty Oval Brushes
     I feel like I can't even express how much I love these brushes!  They performed SO well, I was initially shocked at how my makeup turned out.  I've achieved the "airbrushed" look maybe once before but, my God, these brushes make it easy.  That's what I enjoyed about these brushes; application, blending and setting makeup becomes a dream~  Usually I spend so much time blending out my concealer but not anymore!  It's like my makeup melted away into seamless coverage.  Plus they're extremely soft!
 And to think I was about to switch foundations, but I think my
brushes may have made a big difference.
Speaking of Christmas gifts~ I've been spoiled~~~
Kieli is the sweetest and I don't deserve such whole-hearted kindness, I can't say thank you enough! Thank you thank you!!
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
It's been a while since I shared gets with y'all~
 Both are from Forever21 and I got them so cheap!  Both were $7!
The sweater is super duper soft and baby pink.  The blouse looks
odd in the picture above, but it's a dusty rose color.

     As I grow older, I'm noticing changes in my style.  Pieces I usually wouldn't go for are increasingly making my closet their home lol  I'm excited to see how I'll incorporate my changing style into Gyaru.  (I'm not letting Gyaru go!)  I'm also eager know in what other ways I'll change this year.  Is there anything you're excited for with the start of this brand new year?
Until next time,
~ Love you! x Amiman ~
