Hey everyone! Haven't posted any FOTDs in a while, but I have TONS of makeup pictures! But those will come in a later post. Right now, a tutorial!!
bizzeh asked for a tutorial for this look back in APRIL! Oops!! I've been meaning to do it, but life gets crazy.
Sorry guyz, I don't do video tutorials. :(
Here's what I used! :)
Primer (Depotted UDPP!)
Black gel liner (liquid works, too)
Highlight shadow (I'm using Fyrinnae's French Vanilla Shake)
Whitish/Gray/Black shadow (or whatever!! I'm using MAC's Gorgeous, Ambiance and Carbon)
Loose pigment/shadow (I'm using Fyrinnae's Visage)
Black pencil liner (I'm using a Prestige liner)
A colored pencil liner (I'm using NYC 924A..blue!)
Same colored shadow as pencil (I used the blue from Covergirl's...tropical whatever palette)
Mascara
Clean face..blah blah! I don't usually apply foundation before I put my eyeshadow on. :)
1. Primer! Apply to the top and bottom!
2. Apply lightest shadow across your lid, just to the crease. If you want these colors to pop a little more, you can ALWAYS add a base! :)
3. Next, apply your middle color a little past halfway and blend it into the white. Better than I did plz!!
4. Next apply your darkest color to the outer corner, up into the crease. Blend! Oooo...bad blending today!...or maybe all the time! lol
5. Add a little bit of your highlight...forgot to take a picture!
6. Pat your color into the crease, go thinner and with a lighter hand as you get closer to your inner corner.
7. Blend that color! BUT, only blend a little bit into the colors below and blend up into the highlight. OH! And add more highlight!
8. Don't forget to pick up more color as you go along. I picked up ALL the colors again at least once. Blend, blend, blend! Again, better than me! But just remember, you don't want to go TOO far down into your colors, or you might end up with a mess! So just right at the edge. :)
9. Get some makeup remover and clean up that fallout.
10. Also, if you're like me, you'll want to clean up the outer AND inner edges!
11. Eyeliner! I always go over my eyeliner with eyeshadow. Well..ok not ALWAY but usually. ....Gosh I need new liner! Yikes. OH! And I put foundation on after I cleaned up the fallout. :)
12. Line your top and bottom waterline with eyeliner! Personal preference. :)
13. With your colored liner, line your lower lid. It's a lil' thick! You don't have to make yours that thick. :)
14. With the eyeshadow that matches the liner, go over the line. Make sure to get it on your lashline to fill in any gaps!
15. You can skip this step, but personally, I like to make the liner on my lower lid a little more blendy. So with translucent powder..or your face powder, put a line under your eyeliner and blend it using an up and down motion.
16. Look to the side!
17. Mascara, eyebrows, blush!
18. Lipz!
All done!! I hope that helped?
