Valentine's Makeup Look + Tutorial

Pink Makeup Look
Hey dolls! How was you weekend? I still have 6 exams to go, 3 this week and 3 the next week :(. So as we all know this is the Valentine's week and I have a makeup look suggestion for you. Personally I don't have a Valentine and I'm perfectly fine with that, I don't know why some girls sit around at that day and feel bad about being single. Girl there is nothing wrong with being single!
I didn't want to do something dramatic so I kept it pretty simple and sweet. If you have a date for that day you better opt out for a lip stain rather than lipstick because you know... ;) Here is the products list:

Products
Face
Illamasqua Skin Base foundation in shade 6
Collection 2000 Lasting Perfection concealer in Fair

Cheeks
Smashbox Bronze Lights bronzer in Suntan Matte 
Too Faced Blush in Peach Sugar from Little black book of beauty

Lips

Urban Decay Lip Junkie lipgloss in Midnight Cowboy

Maybelline Color Tattoos in Inked in Pink, Barely Branded and Gold Rush
Warm Bronze Sparkle,Copper,Black Shimmer and Light Beige Shimmer from Too Faced Little Black Book of Beauty
Lancome Hypnose Drama mascara
Benefit BADgal lash mascara

Tutorial
For the eyes:
~First apply your eyeshadow primer to prevent your eyeshadows from creasing.
~Next with a synthetic brush apply the Color Tattoo in Inked in Pink to the inner 2/3 of the lid.
~With a dome shape brush like Sigma E45 apply a middle tone brown eyeshadow (Warm Bronze Sparkle) to the outer 1/3 lid, in the crease and gradually extend it to you eyebrow so at the end you will have something looking like a soft triangle. Also with the same brush add the Copper shade in the crease.
~With a fluffy brush like Sigma E35 blend out any harsh lines.
~Now apply some Color Tattoo in Barely Branded at the highest point of your eyebrow and at the center of the lid close to lash line.
~Mix the Color Tattoos in Inked and Pinked and in Gold Rush so you will have a kinda rose gold color and apply to the inner corner and 1/3 of the lower lid.
~With a pencil brush like Sigma E30 apply the same brown to the lower lid .
~Now line half of the upper lash line using black eyeshadow(Black Shimmer) and flat brush like MAC 212.
~To highlight under the brow use a matte beige or white shade (Light Beige Shimmer) on an angled brush like Sigma E70.
~Finally apply generous amount of mascara and if you want use some false lashes :)
For the rest of the face:
I used the Sigma F80 brush to apply my foundation and my fingers to blend the concealer. For contouring I used the Sigma F40 brush and a matte bronze and with same the brush I apply kinda peachy blush on my cheeks.
Last but not least after I apply my lipstick I added some shimmery lip gloss to the center of my lips to make them look fuller.
