red and white makeup look (canada day inspired #FOTD)

To look and feel my best this Canada Day, I decided to create a red and white makeup look using some of my tried and true favourites. 

There were two eyeshadow palettes used to create the eye look: the Tarte Tarteist Pro Remix Eyeshadow Palette and the Alyssa Edwards Eyeshadow Palette. Both are ones that I reach for often. The Tarte palette is one that I often take away on vacation or reach for when I want something colourful but easy to create. The shadows are ultra pigmented and look beautiful. I knew right away that I wanted to use the shimmery warm red. It was applied all over the lid and then blended out with the soft brown. To incorporate the white in this red and white makeup look, the Alyssa Edwards Eyeshadow Palette was the obvious choice. The white in that particular palette is incredible. It is so richly pigmented. As you can see from the end result, the white really pops! I loved the contrast between the bold white matte and the warm red shimmer. Eyeliner and mascara finished off the eyes. A warm red lipstick from NYX was applied to the lips to finish off the Canada Day inspired makeup look.
