Autumn Forest Nymph

With the obvious inspiration of fall (my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE season) I wanted to do something on the prettier side of things to show off the beautiful colors of the ever changing outdoors!
Start with a clean face
EYES FIRST!
Apply a white shadow base to the entire lid (I recommend the NYX Eyeshadow Base in white)
On your mobile lid pat a bright yellow shadow in the center, a bright red shadow at the outer V, and a bright orange shadow to the inner corner. Overlap over the yellow slightly with the red and the orange.
 Blend a medium brown shadow into the crease and slightly upward. Over top of the brown blend a gold shadow (This adds a very unique color that I really loved! It looked very Autumny to me!)
Apply a pale yellow to the brow bone.
Now easily clean up your edges with a makeup wipe! 
Apply a full coverage foundation and concealer and blend with your fingers. (You can also use my flawless base tutorial.)



(For some reason the shadow looks pink but I promise it is red)
Apply a red shadow to the straightest part of your brow and then extend outwards with a red lip pencil.
Line the lower part of your brow with a brown shadow to add depth and then conceal underneath the brow along with any brow hairs.

Brush on n orange shadow on your lower lash line and then go over it with the gold shadow.


Apply a burgundy shadow to the sides of the nose and extend the red shadow used on the brows in thin lines down the nose and blend.
 Make a line using the red lip liner, parallel to your brow. Place a red shadow over the line.
 CONTOUR!! I used a NYX Jumbo Eyeshadow Pencil in rust and went over it with a burgundy shadow. Then add some red blush to the back of the cheeks. (Don't go too close to the nose)

 Plot out where you want your branches to be with a brown liner. Go over with a black gold liquid liner to add depth. (Jane liquid liner in black gold)
Using an orange lipstick add little dots for flowers and pat over them with a brown shadow.
 Add some jewels above the brow or anywhere you like and a pinky brown lip color. (Do you like seeing up my nose? I bet you do!)
Line your upper lash line very slightly and add a burgundy mascara.
I added some lashes too but that is optional. And yes this face is necessary for mascara application!
I feel like this product really makes the look SHINE. (haha get it?) But really this adds a dewy finish that well, looks like dew on the grass in the morning!
Add Lorac 3D Liquid Luster or a shimmery white eyeshadow to the high points of your face. Cheek bones, bridge of the nose, chin, middle of the forehead and above the lip.
And DONE!!






 Thank you for reading! I hope you like this one just as much as the others. Feel free to leave feedback if you feel inclined.
