It has been a while between posts for me and I am very sorry! The beginning of this year has been filled with lots of busy bits and pieces!
I will get right to it!
I have come up with a wonderful idea that takes the most glamorous looks off the catwalk and takes them to the street. This is my very first one and I hope you like it.
See the model on the left. This lovely lady has very pale foundation and also powder foundation over the top I would say, yellow and black eyeshadow with a touch of green on top on the black. She also has some eyeliner on the outer and inner rim and of course blush. I call this look Day and Night!
Now I have just done the eyes in this post. Already applied are some concealer and a touch of bronzer all over the face.
What you will need:
Eyeshadow brush, short haired slanted eyeshadow brush, Black kohl eyeliner, I have used the colours from MAC C.R.E.A.M eyeshadow palate (I have put a small red cross on the colours used)
Step Two - Apply you're concealer and foundation as you normally would. If you like to use a primer please also apply this and blend it well and then we begin with a blank canvas!
Step Three- Apply black kohl eyeliner along the top lash line to define you're eyes. It doesn't matter if this is a little wobbly as we will be going over the top of this with black eyeshadow.
Step Four- Apply black eyeshadow to the outer corner of the eye. Stay away from the inner corner as we will be putting another colour there, if you slip up simply wipe it away with a tissue.Try and keep the black colour to just over the eye socket bone as the picture shows, also try and keep this slightly curved and not a sharp line.
Do the other eye exactly the same, if you have any eyeshadow fall out under you're eye don't worry because we will fix this later.
Step Five- Get your yellow eyeshadow and apply it to the upper eye lid and apply to just cover the black colour and try and blend slightly so change of colour is not as drastic as the model's picture.Fade the yellow into the inner rim, don't concentrate the colour to much there though as we are going to put another colour there.
Step Six- Apply the bronze colour quite heavily to the inner corner of the eye and fade it out to the black. Also grab you're slanted eye shadow brush and lightly line the bottom lashes in a smudgy line underneath the lashes and not on top.This picture also helps to show the yellow on top of the black.
See the other picture to the side as well.
Once you are happy with the
eyeshadow on both eyes, apply a few coats of black mascara to your top lashes and bottom lashes.
Step Seven- Time for the false lashes!I have used individual short haired lashes. These are SO easy to apply. For this look I have just applied them to the outer lash area to give the natural lashes a bit of fullness.
Simply apply some glue to the end of the lash and apply evenly spaced to the outer area of the lash. I have used 4 on each eye. Once this has dried apply some more black mascara to them if you like. Also make sure they are curling with you're
normal lashes. The key is to make them look natural.
Step Eight- Dip your eyeshadow brush in the white glittery colour and highlight just under your eyebrow and dab a little on top of the bronze colour in you're inner eye.Then you are DONE!
I hope you like it, send me a picture if you have tried this look!
Yours eternally grateful of you actually reading and look at my blog :-)
