Last weekend I collaborated with Vain Salon and Mad Chicken Studio, some of my very favorite talented people in the business, on a creative photo shoot with Rachel as our astounding model.  I had the concept of doing a very summer feeling makeup look featuring nautical inspired details.  This is what I came up with and seeing as it has a prominent “red, white, and blue” color palette I thought no better day to post than the 4th of July, Independence Day.  Below you will find all the products  I used to achieve this nautical/patriotic makeup look.

A quick iPhone capture for you guys.

To achieve this bold cut-crease/red lip makeup look I used the following…

Eyes

• “Vanilla” Pigment [MAC]
• “Sea & Sky” Eyeshadow [MAC]
• “Blanc Type” [MAC]
• “Cosmic Blue” Eyeshadow [Ben Nye]
• “Perversion” Liquid Eyeliner [Urban Decay]

• “Well Dressed” Blush [MAC]
• “Brown Sugar” Urbanglow Cream Highlighter [Urban Decay]

I hope you all have a fantastic and safe 4th, happy holidays!
