Metallic Makeup Beauty Trend: How To Wear Metallic Makeup

September 27, 2016

One of the hottest 2016 makeup trends has definitely been metallics.  Metallic makeup is one of my favorite trends for fall.  (Pssst!  This is the perfect New Year’s Eve glam look too!)

How To Wear Metallic Makeup

Can anyone wear metallic makeup?

Yes!  Metallic makeup can look stunning on any skin tone.  And don’t think you have to be young to pull it off either!  Metallic makeup gives a little bit of shimmer and brightness to your look, but you can do so in a subtle way.  Or go bold!

Metallic makeup takes your makeup routine and gives it a little, subtle edge.

How to wear metallic makeup

Metallic Nail Polish

Sometimes I see a trend I like, but still not sure if it’s for me.  Heck, 90% of the time I do the same makeup routine and do my hair in the same way.  That’s ok!  Makeup is supposed to be fun and help you feel beautiful.  Because when you are confident and feel beautiful – that’s true beauty!

So if you aren’t sure yet start with a nail polish.  Give yourself some luxurious sparkle!  My favorite color is this pretty Gold Dust Nail Enamel.  This polish doesn’t just look good, but it will strengthen your nails by 80%, resist dings and scratches, give you amazing color and will remove easily with nail polish remover.  (That last one is important!  Have you ever had a nail color that stains your nails or is hard to remove?  NOT fun!)  It should also last about 12 days!

Metallic Eye Makeup

You may think that metallic eye makeup means fiercely bold looks, but it doesn’t!   The runway was full of metallic colors on the eyes and it is an easy at home look to replicate.

You will want to start with an eye base.  If you don’t have this product yet, you totally should!  An eye base will keep your eye makeup not only lasting longer, but also from creasing.  It’s also a great product to use for concealing under eye circles.

Next, pick your eyeshadow color.  There is a perfect metallic color for everyone!

For fair or light ccomplexion

For fair or light complexion look for bronze and dark charcoal metallics.  These will look fabulous on you!

For medium to dark complexion

For medium or dark complexion, light silvers and golds will compliment your skin and look stunning!

When you think of metallic makeup you might just think about gold and silver, but there are also jeweled colored metallics!  These are so pretty and a nice way to add a little glam to colors that you wear everyday.  It’s the perfect way to subtly try out the new metallic makeup trend!

You will want to look for a product with a creamy base.  This will keep the look subtle.  The texture of the product contrasting with the color gives it a more natural look…with an edge!  That’s why I love the Mega metals Cream Eye Shadow.  It’s waterproof, comes in super flattering colors and will last all day!

You can stop here or complete the metallic eye with a metallic eye liner.  Line close to your lash line and follow up with mascara.  For a bolder look, draw a thicker line of.

The final look

I recommend using a nude or natural shade lip color when doing metallic eyes.  It helps to balance out the look.

Now that you know how to wear metallic makeup, is this a trend you will be trying this fall?

I Sell Avon

September 26, 2016

I have been interested in having my own business ever since I was little.  I started several ‘businesses’ growing up.  Everything from writing a neighborhood newsletter and selling it to our neighbors when I was in elementary school to babysitting in middle school.  (Seriously though, the Babysitters Club defined #SquadGoals for me back in the day.)  I got my first real job when I was 15 and while I liked working (and really liked payday) I knew early on that I wanted to work for myself.  So it’s not a big surprise to anyone that I grew up and did just that!

I blog full time, but I believe that every should have a side hustle.

Have 3 hobbies: Something you love, something to keep you creative & something to make you… Click To Tweet

I’ve been looking for a new side hustle for a while.  Something that I could tie into my existing websites and then it dawned on me.  I didn’t need a new hustle.  I needed to go back to a hustle I first had when I was 18 years old! I can finally say again, “I sell Avon!”

I Sell Avon

I first started my Avon journey when I was 18.  (We won’t talk about how long ago that actually was!) I sold it for a few months, but not really to make money, but rather just get my make-up for free!  When I was about 21 I started back up again.  I actually tried and what do you know?  I did pretty well!  I had a small team of wonderful ladies under me, earned a few bonus checks and had some great loyal customers.  I honestly regret stopping, but life happens right?

Now, I’m signed back up again.  You know something is great when you come back for a third time!

Why did you choose to sign up to sell Avon?  I sell Avon because…

  • It’s inexpensive.  If you want to start selling Avon you can sign up online and your starter kit is in the mail to you!  They have three kits to choose from with the most inexpensive costing only $25.  Honestly, even if you never take a single sale from anyone it’s still worth signing up to become an Avon representative!  For $25 you receive not only your books and sales tools, but you also receive 4 products!
  • I have been a fan of Avon cosmetics since I was a teenager.  Then, I fell in love with their skincare line.  (The under eye cream is a lifesaver for me!)  But Avon has so much more than makeup and skincare products!  They also sell clothes and accessories.  I still have a dress and several handbags that I ordered over 10 years ago!  And yes, I still wear them often!  They also have some really adorable items for your house and gifts for everyone in your family!   Even though I loved Avon products from when I signed up when I was 18, they have also brought in so many new great products and departments.  And they have kept some of their classic favorites still around!  So wonderful!
  • Avon has been around for over 100 years.  Companies don’t stay around for that long unless they are doing something correct.  There have been direct sales companies that have come and go but Avon is still here – thriving.  In fact, they have over 16 million Facebook fans – more than any other direct sales company!  Avon isn’t a fad and it will be around for the years to come.

I’m so excited about this journey.  I’m literally just begging to go screaming from the rooftops “I sell Avon!” I can’t wait to share with you some of my favorite products, fashion items and if you are interested how to start and grow your own Avon business!

Please join our private Facebook Group!  I will be sharing beauty tips, fun ideas and some awesome deals you won’t find anywhere else!

If you are interested in starting your own Avon business (or side hustle!) so you can say “I sell Avon!” as well, I would love to answer any and all of your questions!  You can sign up here or email me at itsafabulouslife@yahoo.com  I can’t wait to work with you!
