Last week I swung into the Glossybox offices to get dolled up by the very talented makeup artist, Tomy Rivero. He created a soft, natural look for me with products by Aerin Lauder, which is right up my alley because it felt very manageable and something I could recreate again easily enough. I always love chatting with makeup artists and picking their brains on their methods, tips, tricks and all that jazz, because anything to make me look glowing and fresh faced, I love.

Below, Tomy opens up about his process and how he created this pretty and natural makeup look!                  

What were the steps you did to create this eye?

In order of use, I applied the Aerin eye brightener all over the eyelid to prime as this helps reduce redness and preps the eyelid to show the shadows true pigment and help with longevity.

Next, I applied the warm peach shade in the Aerin Kaleidolight Palette with a crease brush and shaped the eyelid to create a soft contour for definition and warmth.

Last, using a large eye shadow brush, I gently stroked the brush to create a color wash for a subtle pop of color.

What brushes did you use?

Big Shadow brush for a color wash. Small crease brush for definition

What kind of primer did you use?

Aerin Eyelight Concealer in Light.

Where do you put the pink powder on your cheek?

Everyone’s face shape is different, therefore depending on your face shape, there are certain places where you should apply the blusher. As a rule of thumb, look in the mirror, smile and on the highest planes of your cheeks pop a bit of color for a fresh look.

What is the best brush to apply cheek powder with? Do you use bronzers and powders?

I like to use a big fluffy brush when I do rouge and apply a splash of color for a natural look instead of a placed cheek color and contour look.

What is the best way to create a rosy cheek?

Take a nude lipstick, as long as its not frosted and dap two dots high on your cheekbones and blend for a natural rosy glow.

What are your tips for creating a cheek contour?

Mix your blush with a darker bronzer without shimmer and brush right under your cheekbones for an extra pop of color after your makeup is done; this way you can tell how much you need.

How did you create this this pink sheer lip?

Aerin Rose Lip Balm – my new obsession. If you layer lightly, it looks great on guys too!

Do you have any additional tips for creating a natural spring look?

Stains! They are fantastic for Spring and you can play with really beautiful bright colors that just pop your natural undertones. For fresh look and translucent finish.

Thanks so much, Tomy! And a big thank you to AERIN and Glossybox for letting me be a model for an afternoon and to Camilo for taking amazing photos! xoxo

Giveaway with Glossybox!

20140708-031422-11662700.jpg

Happy Tuesday everyone! I haven’t done a giveaway on My Style Pill in quite some time, so when Glossybox contacted me about running this fun offer for you guys, I felt the timing was perfect. In case you aren’t familiar with Glossybox, they are a beauty subscription service that offer luxury beauty sampling packaged in high-end gift boxes each month. (You can learn more and subscribe here!)

The fun part is, each month you will receive something different so you’ll never know what will show up, but seeing the brands they work with, it’s guaranteed to be good. In this particular box the following treats consisted of:

StrangeBeautiful Nail Polish: I have yet to use this because I have a gel manicure at the moment, but can’t wait to play around with this red and blue duo soon.

Rusk Texture Dry Finishing Spray: I love dry shampoo but the various ones that I own are in larger bottles that live in my bathroom. This was the perfect size to throw in my purse this past weekend, especially since I was outside a lot and having to deal with beach and pool hair.

Ayres Patagonia Body Butter and Camille Beckman Platinume Gold Imperial Repair Hand Therapy: Both of these moisturizers were so great for this past weekend since they fit in my bag and kept my skin and hands soft and smooth especially after being in the elements all day.

Sumita Beauty Champagne Eye Shadow Pencil: I tried this product Saturday night before heading to dinner with friends. Since it was so hot out and I didn’t feel like putting a ton of makeup since it would slide right off due to the humidity, this eye shadow pencil was the perfect solution. It’s lightweight but still has a pretty shimmer, great for day or nighttime use.

Now for the GIVEAWAY part! Here’s all you need to do to enter:

1. Like GlossyBox and My Style Pill on Facebook.

2. Leave a comment below with your email address.

The winner will be chosen at random, one week from today and notified via email
