My latest video was a tutorial of a very burgandy/berry-toned look. The eyes, lips and blush are in in sync and even though it's not something I usually do, I really like it! I ended up using a fair amount of products but you can easily cut down on the number of shadows you use and you probably don't really need to wear 2 highlighters and 2 blushes. You know me, I like to go overboard and apply ALL the makeup!
Here's the video if you'd like to watch. If not, read on for a full product list and more photos of the look.

This was a fairly easy look but I had a lot of fun creating it. I don't do monochrome looks very often; I'm normally busy slathering on as many colours as I possibly can!
See another of my monochrome looks here: purple galore
I was hoping to start a monochrome series and to be honest, I completely forgot about it. Hopefully I will no remember to carry on with it! I will also have a lot more from Aromaleigh on here soon, possibly a swatch post, definitely some more looks and maybe a tips post on using loose shadows.
I'd love to know your opinion of this look, and of my video style. I am still learning so any helpful criticism is welcome.
