Hello, blog fam! I am so glad to see you back again this week (or welcome — if this is your first time hanging out with me)!! In case you were not aware based on the title of this blog post — IT IS MY BIRTHDAY WEEK. What’s a birthday week, you ask? It is an entire week all about me. Because it’s my birthday. I believe everyone should have birthday weeks. Anyways — this week my birthday is on Thursday so I am celebrating in FULL FORCE. I turn 22 in 3 days. Who said I was allowed to grow up, huh? To kick on Birthday Week with a bang, I’m showing you one of my FAVORITE looks using the Tarteist Pro Palette (what’s new lol). It’s full glam because — it’s my birthday and I can. Let’s jump right into this.
Birthday Glam Makeup Look
I have been really loving the full-glam “instagram” makeup looks lately. It can be a little over-the-top for the average girl but considering I’m a little over-the-top anyways, it works for me. That is 90% of the reason I chose this particular look to ring in my 22nd year on earth. #I’mextra
**Side note: I really wanted to film this as a tutorial for you guys but due to my lack of proper lighting in our new apartment, my attempt at a tutorial was a disaster to say the least. As soon as I get all set up with lighting and my camera, I will film this as a tutorial!!**
Products used:
Here are a list of products I used to create this look. I have been looooooving the Tarteist Pro palette lately (see my review of that HERE). Honestly, Tarte has seriously stepped up their game this past year and I’m not mad about it (lookin’ at you Shape Tape Concealer). Feel free to scroll through and fill that ULTA + Sephora shopping cart. I’m not judging. It’s birthday week.
What is your favorite look right now?? Full insta glam like me or more natural? Let me know in the comments below!!
Now that birthday week has begun, you can expect my “outfit of the BIRTHday” post Wednesday + 22 Lessons I’ve Learned in 22 Year” on Friday (+ a GIVEAWAY). So STAY TUNED!
Peace out, ladies!
Happy early birthday, beautiful! Love your eyeshadow – I never try other colors (like the one you’re wearing) and stick with browns and golds. Maybe I should test out some other fun shades, right?
You absolutely should! They’d look great on you!
yay for birthday week. You’re so young. I feel so old now lol I just purchased this palette by the way because of you.
LOL! I am SO glad!!!
Happy almost birthday! This makeup look is stunning. I love how you added the glitter under the liner and at the tear duct so so pretty.
Thank you Ashley!!!!
Love your look! So flawless!! Birthday wishes! 🙂
Thanks so much!

Absolutely girl!!! As soon as I have my lights set up! I am SO glad we met too! We should catch up soon!
Happy Birthday Week!! I do that too! We should right!? Lol your makeup looks amazing! Thanks for sharing! I have been looking st sephora for a new palette but didn’t know what to try… I’m totally going to get this one now. Happy birthday ????
I hope you love it!
You go girl! I hope you have the best birthday! P.S. Love your eye makeup!
Thank you so much!
Happy Birthday week!! I love my birthday and so I tend to do a few celebrations as well!! This glam is so popular and looks AMAZING on you. Its brilliant!!! .
Thank you so much!!! 🙂
Birthday weeks are awesome! I’m actually going to be doing one for my husband this year (which he doesn’t know about… shh). So happy early birthday! Totally feel old now considering that I’m only 11 years older. Lol. Hope it is a blast.
I don’t know what I prefer. I stink at doing makeup so the idea of Insta Glam is exciting and yet very scary. Trust – there was a weird time where I almost glued an eyelash to NOT my eyelid. Sigh.
But, I can’t do all natural…. so… both? In the middle? Having tea with one another?!
That palette looks wonderful by the way.
Hope this week is ultra super duper fantastic for you birthday girl! Cheers
You are so cute Chel!!! I think you should absolutely GO for the instaglam. There was a time in my life where I was TERRIBLE at applying makeup. It just takes practice and a little guts. Even now I sometimes try new looks and hate them!!! It’s totally ok as long as you try. 🙂
Happy birthday week! This look is really pretty and I’m also one of those who is all about the full glam look! Hope your week is great! 🙂
Thanks Cara!!!
Happy birthday Week! your makeup is absolutely stunning! Love the look!
