00:00That's like one of my favorite things

00:02when I watch the games back.

00:04The blush be popping and it's this blush, y'all.

00:07Promise, pinky and I promise.

00:09Hi Allure, I'm Deejanae Carrington

00:11and this is my 10 minute beauty routine.

00:16So the look I'm going for today

00:18is my signature game day look.

00:20Keep it cute, keep it classy.

00:22Okay, so first I'm gonna start with my brows.

00:24I am forever stuck in 2016.

00:26I'm always gonna be using my Anastasia Beverly Hills.

00:29So I like to first start by outlining

00:33the natural shape of my brows.

00:36And then we'll go back and film them just a little bit.

00:40A little sparse on the end.

00:42So I gotta add a little extra.

00:44And I always put it in the cap,

00:46not directly from the container onto my face.

00:54I literally, since my freshman year of college,

00:56I've played in makeup every game,

00:59genuinely.

01:01And it just makes me feel like me, empowered.

01:04So next I use LA Girl Pro concealer

01:08and I just use any kind of angled brush.

01:12I line the top and the bottom and they pop.

01:18And I like to use a really light concealer for this

01:23to really make it pop.

01:25I swear by this.

01:27And it's literally like $3 from the beauty supply store.

01:31And it lasts so long.

01:33It's so pigmented.

01:35I also use this as my under eye concealer.

01:37I'm going to now blend out my concealer.

01:42This is literally just a eyeshadow brush that I use for this.

01:53I'm going to lock them in with, once again, Anastasia Beverly Hills.

01:58And this is the freeze gel.

02:01It's real gel, y'all.

02:02And I just, right here.

02:05This is really mostly when I play because I sweat, obviously.

02:10So this is something that can just help lock them in.

02:14I'm going to put primer on from ELF, hydrating face primer all over.

02:22It's super light.

02:23I don't like heaviness on my face, especially when I'm playing and sweating and all those things.

02:28Now we're going to go on with some foundation.

02:30I love this one is from Lancome.

02:32It's amazing.

02:33And it has sunscreen in it too.

02:35I'm going to just put this on my face and we're going to blend it with a beauty blender.

02:41I like the consistency of this.

02:43You see, it's not like just dripping straight down my face.

02:46If it did, I couldn't plan that because that means I'm just going to sweat it right off.

02:50And it just goes on like butter.

02:52If I'm playing a game and I'm like, oh, I want to wear foundation today.

02:55It's just about putting on a little bit.

02:59If I'm going out, then we can layer.

03:01Make sure you get that neck a little bit.

03:03Back to my LA Girl Pro Concealer.

03:05I'm going to put that underneath my eye.

03:10I like a lot.

03:11I like a really bright under eye.

03:13I'm going to pack this one.

03:15I'll let that sit.

03:16And while I do that, I'll usually do my hair or I'll put glue on my lashes.

03:21I usually get my lashes from Amazon.

03:24They come in like big packs.

03:26I am on my personal lash growth journey.

03:32So I stopped wearing extensions like probably halfway through the season and decided I wanted to grow my lashes back out.

03:39So I wore strips the rest of the season.

03:42And here we are.

03:43We're on our way.

03:44You see that?

03:45I really could have just put mascara on, but that's not how I play.

03:52And the lash glue is from Kiss, by the way.

03:55It's a white glue, not the black one.

03:58I have to wait till it gets clear.

04:00That's when I put them on.

04:01So we got a new beauty blender.

04:03Always damp.

04:04Always a damp beauty blender.

04:07And then I like to go up to give you a little bit of a, of a lift under that eye.

04:14If you hear pitter patters or some huffing and puffing, that's my child, AKA my dog, AKA Mr. Three.

04:24So don't be alarmed.

04:27Okay.

04:28We have our under eye really bright.

04:30Our lashes still are not dry.

04:32So now we're going to go in with my one size cheek clapper.

04:36You heard me right.

04:37Blush palette.

04:39This one is the pink, more pinkish one.

04:42Attention seeker is what this one, this palette is called.

04:45And I like to mix these two.

04:48This one's super pigmented in the middle.

04:50And then the bottom one has a little bit of shimmer to it.

04:53So I like to mix them and we just go up.

04:58We love blush over here.

05:00That's like one of my favorite things when I watch the games back.

05:06Is the blush be popping.

05:08It's, and it's this blush y'all.

05:11Promise pinky and I promise.

05:13See if our lashes are dry.

05:15Let's see.

05:19They are.

05:22They don't call me one take nay for nothing.

05:25Y'all seen it.

05:26Are we liking the lash look or the no lash look?

05:30I don't know.

05:33Honestly, the reason why I used to almost be late to the games is because my lashes.

05:41It was so hard for me to really figure out how to do strips.

05:47It's just hard for me, but now it's not.

05:49Okay.

05:49So we have our lashes on and we're going to put some under eye powder.

05:56So this is from Morphe.

05:58This one actually is in the color brightening pink because I'm going for a little pink look today.

06:05You guys understand he literally people don't think he's real because he doesn't move.

06:09He's wilding.

06:17He's having a good time y'all.

06:18He's having a good time.

06:20I get it brother.

06:21I get it brother.

06:23Okay.

06:23So we're going to go in with this under eye powder.

06:25Now I got another damp beauty blender and I'm going to go over exactly where I put that

06:37under eye concealer.

06:38And we're going to go up.

06:43I'm going to put a little bit more blush on my brush and I'm going to go on top of this powder.

06:50This is like a bronzer, but it's more of like, for me, it's the contour that I use from lawless

07:00right underneath basically where you're like jawline.

07:04And then I like to go up like that.

07:07And then I get a little bit and I put it outside of my nose.

07:14Come underneath, maybe a little right there for fun.

07:18This doesn't have anything on it.

07:19This is just a brush from House Labs.

07:22And we are going to just wipe off some of this powder.

07:28Just kind of pat it in there.

07:30Then I'm going to take a little bit of it on the tip of this brush and go underneath

07:39where I did that contour or whatever.

07:46I'm going to go up again.

07:48So the next thing I'm going to do is my eyes.

07:50I just put a little bit of mascara from one size on my bottom lashes.

07:56It's like very black.

07:57It makes them curly.

07:59There's a mini one that I can just throw in my purse.

08:02So I'll do one layer right now.

08:08We're going to let that dry a little bit.

08:09And then we're going to put some bottom eyeliner on.

08:13And this is Dior Show on Stage Crayon.

08:18It's waterproof also.

08:19And we're just going to do our waterline.

08:23Keep my mouth closed.

08:24I know how this can get.

08:30Our next step is our highlighter.

08:33This is from Rare Beauty.

08:35It's the color Flaunt.

08:37I'm going to just put a little bit.

08:41And go over like that.

08:46Y'all know what we're about to do.

08:47A little bit more blush because nothing is going to overpower the blush.

08:51So my nose is sweating a little bit right now.

08:53So that's like one of my problem areas.

08:56So I'm going to set my face real quick before I put the highlighter on my nose.

09:00Because sometimes when you put highlighter on like kind of sweatier zones.

09:07It makes it look like splotchy.

09:10And it doesn't blend.

09:11So I'm going to set my face real fast.

09:13With of course none other than my One Size on Till Dawn.

09:25When it smells like alcohol.

09:27Like rubbing alcohol.

09:28You know you did it right.

09:29So now I'm going to line my lips with this Morphe pencil.

09:33I don't know it's brown.

09:34Okay so I don't like to line the corners.

09:37I just line them kind of like here in.

09:51I'm going to use this is the one I use.

09:53The brush I use to do my eyebrows.

09:55I'm just going to do the same thing to clean out my lip liner.

10:00You see what I mean.

10:01I feel like it gives that like pouty like you know as opposed to like a Kool-Aid smile.

10:08Now I'm going to use my MAC lipstick.

10:11And the color is Snob.

10:14I'm not even a lipstick girl.

10:16But this pink is perfect.

10:20And I'm going to go like over obsessed.

10:25And I like it because you can like pack it.

10:26It's not as soon as you put it on.

10:28It's like pink.

10:29It's like pink.

10:31And then you can put a little more and make a pink.

10:33And then you can go pink you know.

10:35So like right now I think we're at like pink.

10:38Perfect.

10:39I'm definitely a gloss finish girl.

10:40It just makes me feel like a baddie.

10:44I feel like a matte lip is an event.

10:48If I'm going to the games though I'm just going to do my normal gloss.

10:52So the first gloss I'm going to put on is from House Labs.

10:56It's just a clear gloss.

10:58But I love their lip glosses.

11:00And they have so many different colors.

11:03And I just love how soft they are.

11:07And shiny.

11:11And we're just going to.

11:13Then I'm going to put a little Too Faced lip injection like that.

11:20Maximum clump.

11:23Okay.

11:24So now we finally have stopped sweating on our nose.

11:29So I can go in and highlight it.

11:31So I'm going to take the same Rare Beauty the color Flaunt.

11:34I think it is.

11:35Yeah.

11:36And I'm going over my nose.

11:39Give it a little glow.

11:41Right here.

11:42I'm going right here.

11:43Right there.

11:44This is where you just look and you're like hmm.

11:47What do I not have?

11:49I feel like I have everything though.

11:51And once again, we're going to set our face again.

11:56Our one size.

12:03Hold it down at least five to seven seconds.

12:05And let it dry.

12:08And here we are.

12:11We have our finished look.

12:12Our game day glam.

12:13Thanks Allure for watching.

12:21I'll see you next time.

12:25We'll see you next time.

12:26We'll see you next time.

12:28Bye.
