The bronzed, tawny shades of these products, as well as the placement of them, gives you that gorgeous just-spent-a-week-on-a-cruise-ship tan look. Little do they know that in reality, you're a shade seeking Goddess, protecting your skin at all costs. 

Let's Go

Beginning with Nutmeg Two In One Cream, multitasking makeup crayon on lips, cheeks, even swiped on your eyelid is perfect. 

Bonus Tip: Apply our organic lip balm on your cheeks prior to applying your crayon for a smooth, hydrating feel. 

Alternatively, you can wear Life of the Party or Optimist, both from the In The Buff Palette as your cheek color and/or bronzer.

Another option is Natural Glow Bronzer to help create your tan look. 

Dab Life of the Party or Optimist in the center or your pout for a glimmer on your lips to enhance your sun-kissed look.

Eyes For The Glow

Apply Charmer, from the Palette, as your transition color in the crease area, using  the Fluffy Angled Eyeshadow brush

Charmer is also going to give us a pop of brightness on the eye lid. 

Life of Party or Soft Touch (also from the Palette) in the crease and up onto the brow bone for definition, using the Crease Brush. Also an emphasis on the corner of the eye creating a 'V' shape. 

Using Charmer again, and using the Eye Shading brush to press onto the lid for brightness. Dampen your brush to get higher impact pigment and staying power. 

This is called Foiling. Learn more about Foiling here

Add a touch of Whisper (yup, in the Palette) just under the brow bone to open up your eye, using the Eye Shading Brush. Also dab a touch of it to the inner corner of your eye area to lighten up that area which tends to get dark.  

Using a designating blending brush, blend it all out to soften any edges. 

In The Buff Palette

Not Done Yet

To complete your eye look, take Black Coffee Mineral Eye Pencil and dot along the base of lashes both upper and lower. Using the Crease and Smudge Brush, smudge out the line for a soft natural look. Your could also use the edge of the Eye Shading Brush to smudge it out. 

Additionally, you could add depth to your look by smudging a layer of Soft Touch on top of the Black Coffee pencil. 

Brighten Up

Dab Bright Eyes Pink under your eyes, and above your cheek bones and brow to perk up.
