00:00hey guys what's up it's Shalom Black here I am collaborating with essence to bring
00:14you guys this nice spring makeup transformation so if you do want to see
00:19how I got this look then stay tuned so we are gonna go ahead and get right into
00:24the makeup I have already went ahead and moisturized my face so I'm just going to
00:28wipe off my eyebrows just because I don't really have a lot of eyebrow hair so I
00:34have to clean it all so that the pencil that I'm about to use is not slippery so
00:40for my eyebrows I do love to use pencil because I feel like that's what works
00:45best for me you guys know there's different kind of eyebrow products out
00:49there so I just apply some brush it a little and I go back again so I've
00:57gotten micro blade a while ago but it's kind of fading out but I still kind of
01:03use that to guide me with my eyebrow shaping so it's perfect
01:12so I know you guys probably cannot tell that I'm doing anything to my eyebrows
01:16but I am so I'm just taking my concealer and putting it on the back of my arms to
01:21just kind of warm it up and flatten it on my brush so that I don't have too much on
01:27the brush and then I'm going right underneath that brows I'm gonna start
01:32cleaning it off and shaping it the way that I want it to look and then I'm also
01:40bringing that concealer down and blending it out I'm gonna go ahead and do the same
01:53thing for the top of my eyebrows just following that shape and I know people
02:00use different kind of concealer shade for the top and bottom but I just go ahead
02:06and use the same thing because honestly when I go in with my foundation
02:10everything is going to be blended out so I don't mind
02:18you have to go back in with your eyebrow pencil go ahead and go back in I like to
02:24go back and forward so now I'm just gonna kind of shape the top because I feel
02:30like I lost some shape of it and we just do the same thing for the other side this
02:42is my most complicated eye to do for some reason I could never get it to look like
02:48the first eyebrows but it's okay though because your eyebrows are supposed to look
02:53like sisters not twins okay so I think I can settle for this brows I'm gonna go
03:04ahead and set the brows now and I do like setting my eyebrows with a lighter
03:10shade that is lighter than my eyebrow pencil because then it kind of lightens up my brows
03:15just because I don't like it to be looking a little too dark especially if I'm using a lighter hair color
03:22I just like to use this to make the brows a bit lighter and also it makes my
03:30eyebrows look like I have a lot of eyebrow hair so I'm taking the same concealer
03:41that I used to clean my eyebrows and I'm just gonna apply it on my eyelid and this
03:46is basically going to be the base for my eyeshadow and also a primer for the eyeshadow
03:52and I just like to tap that until it's completely blended so I'm just blending the concealer out until
04:09it's completely flat and then I'm gonna go ahead and take a powder and set it
04:14before I start applying my eyeshadow
04:16I know I look crazy but we're gonna get right into the
04:46eyeshadow and I'm taking this coral shade and I'm using that as my transition color so
04:58this is gonna go kind of up to my brow bone making sure that it's really well
05:05blend it so I'm gonna go ahead and get into this nice greenish shade color it's
05:25kind of remind me of the army green I'm going to stop popping that on my crease I'm
05:32working that and I will pat it in first just to make it a bit pigmented
05:38so I'm also putting that color in the inner part of my eyes basically I'm making a half moon on my
05:51eyelid and then I'm going to blend that
05:57I'm going to be winging that eyeshadow a bit out just because I want it to create a
06:10smokey effect so I'm gonna do that and also blend that very well because we're
06:16gonna go back in and apply a darker shade of green I'm going to be taking this
06:28shade now and I'm going to be really focusing that on the crease
06:58so now we're going to go ahead and take this shimmery green eyeshadow shade
07:12now we're going to go ahead and do our bottom waterline I usually kind of skip doing eyeliner on
07:35the top of my eyelid just because I feel like it takes away from all the work of the eyeshadow so
07:41I just like to pop on lashes on top instead but I'm going to use the black
07:48coal liner on the bottom lash line this is going to give me a nice smoky sexy eye
07:54effect so and I like to pack that a lot
07:58I'm going to go back into the green shade and I'm going to use that to smoke that black eyeliner out
08:17I'm going back with the eyeliner and I'm just going to apply that over again just because
08:33I want it to be darker and usually when you smoke it out tons of fade away so you could just go back
08:39and forward and make it as dark as you need it to be I see the difference from this eye with this eye and
08:51so I'm just going to go ahead and do the same thing with the other eye just smoke it out
08:55okay so I'm going to go ahead and take my favorite lashes I love using kind of wispy looking lashes just
09:09because it does not over power the eyeshadow you can still see my eyeshadow through the lashes so
09:15I'm going to go ahead and put some glue on this the trick to putting on lashes is kind of looking down
09:20but not like looking down but looking down and then you could pop it on and I know usually people apply
09:27mascara before they apply their lashes but because my lashes are super curly I have to apply the falsies
09:34before mascara if not the lashes would be sitting right on my actual lashes and it would not look neat
09:50I'm gonna go ahead and take my primer this is my favorite primer because I feel like it does
10:05moisturize my skin but it really works well with the foundation that I use and also it lasts all day
10:14for me but I'm just going to apply that all over my face make sure I blend it out and no I do not
10:23apply moisturizer I mean primer all over my head too but I do apply makeup all over my head and the
10:32reason why I do that is because it's just really weird if I don't have my wig to stop the makeup right
10:38here so I just go ahead and apply it on the whole hair I do like to use a brush to blend out my
10:45foundation because I feel like sponges honestly just soak up the foundation and it doesn't apply as
10:52flawless and I do know that people really do like applying their foundation with the sponge but
10:57personally for me I feel like the brush works best for my skin
11:02so I do like to go in with a darker shade
11:27on my head and that's also going to work as the contour shade and just blend it out because we
11:36don't want I had to look like a cast dead person oh my head I don't know what I mean meant by our
11:44head but I'm gonna go ahead and blend that out and I'm going to be making my way to the back of my head
11:52okay so I'm going to be taking my highlighting concealer and I'm applying that right underneath my
12:09eyes to brighten the eye but I do like to kind of keep it settle on the eye highlighting concealer just
12:16because I don't like it to be too bright but I still want to get that you know conceal effect I
12:23just apply that this is super creamy and it's not drying for the underneath the eyes and a bit on my nose
12:35on my upper lip and my chin okay so after applying that concealer I'm gonna go ahead and just start
12:45blending now I did like to blend my concealer with a beauty blender and I usually just tap well yeah dab it
12:56until it until it's blended and take it up to the eye I'm gonna go back in my foundation brush and I'm
13:11just going to blend out the edges so we're sure we don't have any demarcation of concealer or foundation
13:21contour okay now that everything looks like it's completely blended I'm gonna go ahead and get into
13:27my setting powder and I like to use a loose powder to set underneath my eyes and I'm using the same
13:35beauty blender to do so so I just take that underneath my eyes and I know it looks crazy right now but what
13:43you want to do for a very long-lasting makeup and a nice bright underneath the eyes you just want to
13:49keep pressing that powder until it's completely disappeared underneath your eyes and I just feel
13:56like this gives me a really nice filtered look underneath my eyes I see how that looks versus this side we're
14:14gonna go ahead and do the same thing other side of the face so I'm basically putting the powder and
14:26setting everywhere that I put that concealer this is where basically light hits on your face so that's
14:35where you want to highlight and set and I'm going to do the same thing for the nose
14:41I'm gonna go ahead and take a press powder and I'm using that to set the rest of my face I like using the
15:02set and powder because I also create like a filter look to my face you know taking it till you make it
15:09like we got really smooth skin and I just use that all over my face and my head so I'm just gonna use a
15:19big puff brush to set that so next step is brownsing up and yes they do have shade for us to browns now
15:32so I'm going to be taking this bronzer and I'm going to just slightly bronze the perimeter of my face
15:40now I'm going to be taking a dark shade of powder and I'm using that to contour my face
15:53and I'm using the same brush and I'm just gonna focus that on the hollow of my cheek
15:59so now I'm just contouring my nose I'm using the same powder
16:08I'm just going to contour this nose and the trick is for me is to bring in the contour towards the
16:16eyebrows because you need it to fade into something and I like doing this because we
16:22have the harsh line from the concealer that we use to clean off our brows right on the outer part so I
16:29like to bring in the contour and really blend up those two together because then the harsh line fades away
16:37so looking at this um eyebrow in this eyebrow you can see that you can see that demarcation of line
16:46in the front versus this that I did not contour so we're basically going to do the same thing for this
16:53size okay so now it's time for blush I'm going to be taking this coral pink shade or rosy pink shade
17:05actually on my brush make sure you tap that I'm gonna go in I like to smile slightly and then I like
17:17to blend it into my contour blush just basically honestly I feel like it gives you a nice glow with
17:27your makeup overall and it brings some color to the face that's why I like using blush now because before
17:35I used to avoid using blush just because I thought it was clownish but if you do it the right way you
17:43should be fine okay so now I'm just taking my mascara and I'm applying it on the top and bottom lashes but
17:49I'm making sure I'm not really touching the falsies I'm just making sure that I blend in my real lashes with the falsies
17:59so here is the fun part I am going to go ahead and apply my highlighter and I am using the
18:13highlighter brush and just blending that out usually sometimes I would spray my brush but this highlighter
18:24is already really like blinking so I like to put a bit on my forehead because that makes it look like
18:35I'm really glowing all around I'm going to take the same highlighter and I'm going to put it on the tip
18:40of my nose and sometimes I put it on the bridge so we're gonna go ahead and put it on the bridge just
18:47slightly
18:51So for my lips I'm going to be taking this brown lip liner and I'm going to be lining up my lips and defining it
18:58then I'm gonna go in with a brown lipstick
19:00so the final thing that we're going to do is set our face so I'm going to be using a setting spray
19:17and just drench my face
19:19and that is going to eliminate the powdery look and just makes our face look dewy and blend it all
