Yesterday, I did an outfit post “All in The Pleat” and promised to post a mini how-to on how to get my beauty look. There are a few main hair & makeup essentials I used to achieve the look. Below is a break down of the products and how I used them. I promise, when I get the hang of this video thing, I’ll start recording these.
Ok so I’m super excited that I FINALLY can pull my natural hair into a top knot. The main products I use to achieve this look are:
1) Spray bottle (with a mix of water, drop of coconut oil, and cheapie conditioner)
2) Jane Carter Leave-In Conditioner (gifted to me by the wonderful folks at True Indian Hair after I got my sew-in done. Now I’m hooked!)
3) Curls Unleashed Curl Boosting Jelly
4) Goodie hair bands
5) Hair pins
6) Homemade sock bun
It’s the perfect matte red and it works on so many different skin tones. For my face, I used Makeup Forever HD Invisible Cover foundation mixed with MAC Oil Control Lotion for my very own tinted moisturizer. I then brush my cheeks with Stila Cosmetics One Step Primecolor in Capri Coral for a nice bronzy finish. On the eyes, I’m wearing Urban Decay Eyeshadow in YDK.
Such an accomplishment to pull your natural hair into a bun. You styling and I LOVES!
