DEFINE:
I lined my upper lashline with Stila Stay All Day Liquid Eyeliner in Black.
I lined my lower waterline with L'Oreal HIP Cream Eyeliner in Black. Stila #28 Smudge Pot Brush
I used Too Faced Lash Injection Mascara for my lashes and added Beautee Senses Smashing False Eyelashes for effect.

Lips:

POLISH:
For my lips I used MAC Yash Lipstick (matte nude) topped with MAC Sheena Lip Laquer (shimmery golden bronze).

Face:
