Chocolate Covered Strawberries

I tried out this look using a look by Leesha called Chocolate Covered Strawberries. It's a matte look using pink and browns and pretty easy, if you ask me. Mine doesn't look quite as pink as hers because she used the Coastal Scents palette and I tried to create a nice pink like hers using two colors. Mine looks decent but I really like hers better. (Mine Coastal Scents palette will, hopefully, be here next week at which time I will try this look again.)

Enjoy the V-day inspired, yummy look!

The Results













I'm not thrilled with the eyeliner. The L'Oreal eyeliner was crappy. I've only used it a handful of times. When I first bought it application was easy because the product with smooth and creamy. Now it's dried out. I won't be buying it again and next time I do an actual liner versus using a shadow wet I will stick to my 24/7 pencils by Urban Decay. They have never let me down.
