I based my eye in a eye primer (Revlon photo ready pen).
I then applied a black pencil liner(MAC) on my eye lid then blended the kohl out with a eye shadow blending brush.
.Apply a light shimmer colour in the inner corner of your eye. sweep a medium silver shadow over the rest of the lid of the eye.
Using a flat eye shadow brush press a dark grey shimmery shadow just after the pupil level. Using a fluffy blending brush blend the silver and grey together making sure the darker colour is near the end of the eye and the silver in the middle.
Using a flat brush again apply a matte black shadow at the outer corner of the eye do not blend quite yet.
Using a fluffy blending brush apply a matte honey shade of shadow on your socket line. Not only does this warm up the eye look but it also makes the eyes pop. It also looks great on hooded eyes as it gives the illusion of lifted eyes.
Using a matte highlight colour so a very matte light shadow apply this under the brow .This will lift the eyes.
Using that black liner line your bottom and top water line for that sultry look.
.Under the eyes using a fine sturdy brush push black matte shadow as close to the lash line as possible and lightly push the shadow along to make the look a lot softer. Apply that dark grey metallic shade on top and repeat.
Once you get to the outer corner of the eye create a flick going diagonal upwards towards the end of the brow. But do not I repeat do not take it that far you want it to lie just below your socket bone.
Now you can blend shadow up to where the honey taupe shade is. Blend the flick upwards towards the brow till the shadow looks soft and seamless. Keep blending until they eye looks soft, so you cannot see any lines.
I always reapply the inner corner highlight and the under brow highlight to really make the eyes stand out. Go around the eye using a concealer brush and a light concealer you're going to want the concealer to be a few shades lighter than your skin tone to highlight the eye area. Clean up random splodges.
Finally curl the lashes and apply a few layers of mascara starting at the inner corner of your eyes. As these little lashes are the lashes that are going to open your eyes up.
Brows.
- Spooly.
- MUA pencil for blondes.
- MAC brow pencil in Spiked.
- Alight hand.
For the brows I wanted a defined yet subtle look. Before the pencil touches skin I always make sure my brows are starting where they are meant to start and end You can measure this by using a pencil from the outer nostril where it lays is where ideally your brow should start. I will do a blog post on this as brows are ridiculously important.
I brushed through the brows using a spooly.
Using a eye pencil that was a shade lighter than my brows I began to fill them using light feathery movements DO NOT PRESS HARD! We are trying to imitate hairs we do not want to create a crayon texture.
I then take another shade which is the right shade for my brows and from the brow arch lightly pencil them in brushing through the pencil for a soft look. Once I get to the end of my brows I like to make sure the brows come to a fine point for a more precise look.
