Warm Copper Eyes & Burgundy Lips : Fall Makeup

Hey guys! Here I am doing some catching up with my blog! LOL So if you dont know I have recently become obsessed with Colourpop! They make shadows, lipsticks & lip liners of all colors and all finishes and the best part? Everything is $5.00 each! I will have a future blog post on these babies so stay tuned ;). I created a look using one of their shadows in Game Face & Lippie Stix (as they call it) in Ellaire!

 

Look at this Coppery goodness.. I am in LOVE! BTW, Gameface is the color on my lid. Its so metallic and your perfect penny color. LOVE IT! 

 

This is the Lippie Stix color in Ellaire. Your perfect fall vampy lipstick, if your on the hunt for a great and affordable lipstick.. I think this one might be a winner ;)!

Birthday Haul!

No makeup look today :/ BUT.. I have a haul video up if you want to check it out ;)

Winter Wonderland

Hey guys! I want to keep my YouTube channel and blog in sync so i have a lot of catching up to do! I had to show you guys this look because i am in loveeee with it! I was inspired by the winter, so I kept this look very blue toned with some tonal glitter and white lids for that icy effect!

This is my first time trying a cut crease and it was such a success, I definitely  have more cut crease looks coming in the future now that I've found a new technique works for me. The trick is carving out your lid with a base, or a concealer.. it works like a charm ;)! 

Hey guys! I hope you like this, I loved creating this, had so much fun and it only took one shot I had no practice prior to creating this look YAYYY lol. Products & Links for everything regarding the collab will be listed down below. Enjoy :)

Hey Hey Hey!

Helllooo everybody!! So some of you may watch my videos on Youtube, I mainly focus on makeup tutorials & if you don't you totally should my Youtube channel name is Raiza Gonzalez, and some of you may follow my Instagram account which is "Raivegon."
