Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, so I figured it would be perfect to do a L-O-V-E inspired makeup look using the new Urban Decay Vice Limited Palette I just swatched. Please feel free to change this look up however you please, making it your own and tailoring it to your liking. I personally love pinks and purples for Valentine’s Day, so this look includes plenty of that. I’ve got the full tutorial inside as well as the finished look!

 

THE EYE MAKEUP:

 

For this look, I used the Urban Decay Vice Limited Palette. I placed numbers over the shades I used. Here’s exactly how to get the look: 

1. After applying eye primer, apply Shade 1 over your entire eyelid and lower lash-line. This shade won’t show up much and that is exactly what we want. Laying down an invisible base helps all the other eyeshadow shades to blend evenly.
2. Apply Shade 2 lightly into the crease of your eye and blend upward.
3. Using Shade 3 and Shade 4 mixed together, apply these to the socket of your eye and blend upward generously toward your brows. This will be your transition color and will give you a really soft, beautiful, ethereal violet look to your eyelids.
4. Apply Shade 5 into the crease of your eye only. Build this color up by going back a few times and apply it directly into the crease with a windshield wiper motion. Also apply this shade to your lower lash-line and use Shade 3 and Shade 4 to blend this out along your lower lashes and create a smokey look.
5. With a wet makeup brush, pat on Shade 6 to your eyelid area and the inner corners of your eyes. Go back and apply some more of Shade 5 into the crease of your eye only to blend everything out well and make sure you didn’t extend your eyelid shade too far up into your crease.
6. Apply black eyeliner to your water-line and tight-line your upper lashes. Create a thin cat-eye along your upper lash-line and wing that baby out!
7. Curl your lashes and apply mascara.

 

OTHER EYE PRODUCTS USED:

• Ardency Inn Modster Eyeliner in Black 
• Tarteist Clay Liner in Black (this stuff is the BEST eyeliner I have ever used)
• Dior Iconic Overcurl Mascara in Black

 

 

The look is romantic and includes purple and pink with a hint of sophistication from the eyeliner. I love the eyelid shade. It adds the perfect pop of playful shimmer to the look and really lights up your eyes. Also, it cannot be said enough how much I am in love with the new Tarteist Clay Liner. I have been using it non-stop and it is hands down the best eyeliner I’ve ever owned and used.

 

 

THE LIPS:

I used the brand new NYX Intense Butter Gloss in “Tres Leches.” 

 

 

THE FACE MAKEUP: 

For the face makeup, I kept it simple and clean. I applied the brand new NARS All-Day Luminous Weightless Foundation in Stromboli. It’s a really lightweight, airy foundation that only requires a few drops to look perfect. I used my Kat Von D Shade & Light Contour Palette to contour and highlight my cheekbones, nose, and forehead. I lightly applied LORAC Baked Matte Satin Blush in Flaunt to my cheeks. To highlight my cheekbones even more, I used my all-time favorite BECCA Cosmetics Shimmering Skin Perfector in Opal. I used Anastasia Brow Powder Duo in Auburn to fill in my eyebrows. Lastly, I set everything in place with the new Smashbox Primer Water.
