monochromatic makeup: warm peach (feat. drugstore and high end)

The pandemic drags on and on....and my makeup routine has changed significantly as a result. Before the pandemic, I had a handful of quick and easy looks ready to go that were suitable for work. (I would let my creativity take over when it came time for blog posts, videos, or nights out.) Now that I am working from home? It gives me a bit more freedom to experiment and have fun. I like to take a bit of time out of each day to dig through my makeup collection and reach for products that need a little love. Maybe something I haven't reached for in ages or something in particular that calls to me. Honestly? It has been a lot of fun to use and enjoy even more of my makeup collection. 

Fairly recently, I reached for the Anastasia Beverly Hills Subculture Eyeshadow Palette. This is one of the least used palettes in my collection due to the inconsistency. (Read more about that in my full review here.) I wanted to intentionally put it to use on a semi-regular basis to really make the most of the less-than-stellar palette. Then...ta da! The shade Roxy in the Subculture Palette is actually what inspired the idea to create a monochromatic makeup look. That warm peach colour was so beautiful. And it was exciting to create a look around one singular eyeshadow shade. 

I started to reach for other warm peach coloured items from my makeup collection to round out the look. In the end, the some of the products used included the following: 

• Anastasia Beverly Hills Subculture Eyeshadow Palette (Shades Used: Dawn, Roxy, and Fudge)
• Kylie Cosmetics Pressed Blush Powder in We're Going Shopping
• Hard Candy Just Glow! Baked Highlighting Trio in Cruisin' the Coast 
• Hard Candy Fierce Effects Lipstick in Alley Cat

The monochromatic makeup look was pretty simple. I used Dawn (a neutral matte beige) all over the eyelid as a base. Then added Roxy (that warm peach shade) all over the eyes to achieve that stunning colour, and a bit of Fudge (warm brown) through the crease for a little bit of depth. A bit of eyeliner and mascara finished off the eyes. Then it was some of the Kylie Cosmetics blush on the cheeks and a bit of the warm peach coloured highlight shade from the Baked Highlighting Trio. To finish it all off, I added that warm peach lipstick on the lips. Take a peek at the end result:
