Retro Inspired Neutral Holiday Makeup Tutorial 

Neutral Cat Eye with dark Lip.

My personal choices with {}

I purchase my favorite makeup here:

1. Start off my cleansing your face and applying a nice moisterizer. I did a nice honey and yogurt facial, showered and moisturized with whipped coconut oil and honey. Apply plain lip balm.

2. Apply foundation or concealer as desired. I actually don't wear foundation, I prefer to cleanse  and freshen my skin really well  before doing a nice makeup look. (see step 1 for my choices) and apply a dab of shadow or concealer for problem spots.

3. Apply warm pink blush {Earth Glow blush by Willow Tree Minerals}to apples of cheeks, and sweep upwards towards temple in a C motion to create a natural flush

4. Apply a pale shimmery gold shadow{Praline Shadow by Willow Tree Minerals} to lids (wet brush for lids for a more dramatic look),  3.5 highlight with this color or a lighter one under brows, inner corners of eyes, and on top of cheek bones.

5. Apply a darker copper or gold shade{Treasured Bronze shadow by Willow Tree Minerals} to crease in and bring in to a side V shape onto lid. (Wet brush for a more dramatic look)

6. While lids dry (if using a wet brush) apply a tinted balm in a plum shade {Red Dahlia by Burt's Bees}
7. Apply black or dark brown mascara to upper lashes, and focus on the outer corners for that vintage look {Cocoa Canyon by Willow Tree Minerals}

8. lightly line lower lashes in brown, {Roasted Coffee by Willow Tree Minerals} extend line a little up onto top to aid the cat eye look. Lining the lower lashes in brown rather than black softens the look.

9. Darkly and fairly heavily apply black liner{Purely Onyx by Willow Tree Minerals}to upper lids and flick out at outer edges for a vintage cat eye look. To get a nice flicked eye, I smudge the pencil along my lashes to give them a fuller appearence then a I pull a smooth thin line and match up with the flick I created with the lower liner. After I've gotten the line right I go over it more thickly. I like a super thick line most of the time, but do whatever you like!
Also, for a flicked look I prefer liquid, but since I'm almost out, I did pencil and went over the line with a bit of liquid black {Nightfall by Willow Tree Minerals} to set look.

8. Apply a plummy red lipstick or balm {I like to mix Cherry and Plum by Burt's Bees}
to lips in your natural lip line. This is a more matte lip, but definitely go over the top with a nice dark shimmer gloss if you prefer.

This before lip color was added,
so refer  to previous picture for a more accurate lip look. 

 If you wear glass you will want to apply eye makeup much heavier than you normally would
