FOTD: Evening Bronze Look

So today happened to be Valentine's Day, and my wonderful boyfriend and I decided to keep it casual this year. We are going on a trip to Las Vegas in less than a month which will soon be followed by our anniversary, therefore we swapped the candy hearts, calorie packed chocolate, and dust collecting teddy bears for some Five Guys burgers (and FRIES yum) and the movie "Just Go With It" featuring Adam Sandler & Jennifer Aniston =). It was the PERFECT way for us to spend Valentine's Day, relaxed and truly enjoying each other's company (even though I love a good excuse to get glammed up and dressy!!!). Just because we were keeping it a jeans and cute top kind of night didn't mean I was going to skimp on my makeup though..oh no, not I. I decided against the overtly expected pink or purple eyeshadow and went for a brown/bronze smoky eye instead. Neutral enough to fit with my jeans and flip-flops but still glam enough for an occasion such as V-Day. Here are a few Face of the Day (FOTD) pictures and a list of products used to create my look:
