GRWM: October Game Day (hair, makeup, game day pics)

October calls for lots of football, the overwhelming feeling of home and tons of pictures. There’s nothing I love more than a Friday night in my small town which is why today I wanted to do another Get Ready With Me for game days! My routine change quite a bit once October rolls around because I like to break out the pink and we switch up our bows! Anyways, without further ado, let’s get on into it

Hair: I haven’t been poofing my hair much lately because braids are much less time-consuming! Today I dutch braided my hair and pulled it back into a high pony. I teased the pony part of my hair with my teasing comb and the best hairspray for long-wearing hold- Got 2 Be Glued Hairspray. This month we wear silver bows that have a pink breast cancer symbol on them as well!

Makeup: For my makeup I started off with my Nivea Mens Shave Balm to prime my face and ensure that my makeup stays on all day. For foundation, I mix the Loreal Infallible Foundation and the Maybelline Matte Fit Me Foundation so that I can get  a nice even color and a super matte finish. Afterward, I am setting my face with the NYX HD Powder which is perfect when taking pictures. For contouring and highlighting I use the Anastasia Beverly Hills Contour Kit. In October I break out the blush, today I’m using the ELF Blush Quad. For my eyes I’m starting off the Urban Decay Primer Potion to keep my eyeshadow from creasing. I am the taking the Maybelline Color Tattoo in ‘Barely Branded’ and applying this all over my lids. October means I can break out all my pink shades! Naked 3’s shade ‘Dust’ over top of the Wet N Wild Glitter in ‘White’ looks absolutely stunning on the lids. I am then taking ‘limit’ and ‘nooner’ and working these into my crease for a beautiful eyeshadow look. I am then using ‘black heart’ in my outter v. Afterwards I am taking my Anastasia Dip Brow and filling and shaping my brows and highlighting my brow bone with my NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in ‘Milk’. I’m then piling on all the mascara, Maybelline Great Lash, Covergirl Flamed Up, and Too Faced Better than Sex. For my lips I either take a pink lipstick or a pinkish nude liquid lippie from NYX.

A peak into my Friday nights:
