When it comes to makeup I have never been one to experiment with color. I tend to gravitate towards a neutral eye look and go wild with my signature red lip. On the less adventurous days I stick to a neutral lip gloss. 


I was challenged to recreate a makeup look inspired by the beautiful city of Shanghai, made up of rich autumn colors such as green, beige, and black. I wanted to create a look that I could wear on a daily bases and easily transition to night.
Get the look inspired by Shanghai, products listed below
Revlon Colorstay Shadow Links in Moss and Khaki
Revlon Colorstay Eyeliner in Jade
Revlon Colorstay Moisture lip Stain in Shanghai
Revlon Bold Lacquer Mascara in blackest black
Revlon Colorstay Gel Envy in Checkmate, Black Jack and Diamond top Coat

Don’t forget to start your look with a fresh face. Use a foundation of choice or try out Revlon Colorstay Makeup Foundation


First I primed both eye lids with an eyelid primer and applied their eye shadow color in Moss from the inner corner to center of the eye. On the outer edge, I applied the eye shadow Khaki and blended them together. 

For a more dramatic deep smoky eye look add a very dark shadow to the extreme corners of the eye.I did not do that for this look

Secondly, I used a black liquid liner (not pictured) to line the upper lashes from the inner to outer corner of both eyes. I then applied the eyeliner in jade to the outer corners of the lower lash line and finished with Revlon Bold Lacquer Mascara in blackest Black.

Next I applied a small dab of Shanghai Sizzle lip stain onto my lips.  Apply more for more intense color.

Lastly I went with their Gel Envy nail polish in the color Blackjack (black). One can also substitute for Checkmate (beige), but be sure to seal with the top coat.
