--has somewhat luminous finish, very good nozzle mist
Milani Make it Dewy/Make it Last 2.03 fl oz (Walmart/HEB/Target)

-has glow from within look does not look luminous as in shiny or dewy whatsoever, has very matte finish smells like coconut and vanilla 
BECCA Ever-Matte Poreless Primer .40 fl oz $15/ 1.35 fl oz $36 (Sephora/Ulta)

Pixi Hydrating Milky Mist 2.70 fl oz $15 (Target)

Essence Lash Princess .40 fl oz $4.99 (Target/ Ulta)
-it is comparable to Tarte Lights Camera Lashes and only has .24 fluid oz used to be my holy grail mascara! Insanely costs $23 that's why I tried drugstore options and fell in love with this

Bite Beauty Lip Pencil shade 032 $18 (Sephora) -- Left Swatch
Jordana Lip Pencil shade Tawny $1.99 (Walgreens)-- Right Swatch

NYX Micro Brow Pencil in Ash Brown $9.99 (Ulta/Target)
-the ABH brow pencil is much creamier in my opinion but I think is what causes it to run out quicker as well, this is a bit stiffer so it lets you place it directly where you want it. I like this so much better! With ABH price at $21 NO THANKS!

Valentine's Day Makeup (Rose Gold Eyes, Berry Lips)

-

This makeup was inspired by a picture I found on pinterest which was a peach pink based makeup look with some sparkle on the lid.  I basically wanted a more wearable less smokey version of this look ( click here for inspo pic ). The look revolves around the rose gold color on my lids and berry lips.  I've had this L'oreal eyeshadow pigment for a while and just haven't had the chance to use it I've paired it with a light brown on the crease but I think the pinkish  peach brings out the pigments undertones in a not too dramatic way.  I wanted a soft valentine's look that wasn't too pink or too smokey more on the romantic side if you will. Below is the picture and product info details on what I've used along with some description and pictures of colors so you can see what colors it will be alike since not everyone owns the same makeup palettes, eye shadows and etc. I hope you find this helpful and have a wonderful Valentine's Day :) T...

In the picture, you can see that it gave it some length but it isn't a lengthening or volumizing mascara it is your typical mascara that really just coats your lashes.  For color pay off it took me about four coats letting each a bit dry before applying another to avoid just clumping everything.   You can tell that I am wearing a blue mascara as well, my sister even said they are obvious in natural lighting.  I wore it throughout the day and living in Texas it is humid and it did not smear or smudge like some of my mascaras! I would rate this 3 out of 5 stars . So the two stars off are because one, animal testing with Maybelline is still not clear they claim to be non-believers of animal testing yet state that when necessary they will? ...

PLEASE READ, IMPORTANT DETAILS HERE: If you are a new or smaller channel like mine let me know so I can subscribe to you as well :) Instagram: paulamiq Twitter: Paula Miquiabas Mario Badescu Spray Green Version **I also forgot to mention that in the end I decided to top off my makeup with Becca blurring powder in golden hour (swirling very little product in my fluffy brush then on my face), if you have enlarged pores or bumps don't use this on those areas as it will accentuate them, to me it just helps give a natural glow, you can do this by adding a luminous setting spray on top but it makes me oily so I opted for the powder** Primer: Becca Poreless (make sure it's spread out not patted because it will start pilling) Foundation: Becca Complexion Creme in Nude Good Alternatives: ABH Stick foundation (applied same way)/ Wet N Wild Photofocus (with fingers onto the face then damp sponge, and have to use powder foundation on top as this has some flashback...
