Bluish Green Tutorial (very pic heavy and very long)
This is my first tutorial ever, so I hope it's helpful =)

What I used:

FACE:
Moisturizer
Studio Fix Fluid
Studio Fix
Blot Powder

LIPS:
Chapstick

EYES:

Bare Canvas Paint
Blacktrack Fluidline
Black Eyeshadow
Chrome Yellow e/s
Overgrown e/s
Aquadistic e/s
Pompous blue e/s
Teal Pigment
Mascara

MISC:
A giant poofy brush
An eyeliner brush
Eyeshadow brushes
A babywipe
Two q-tips

Alright, so here come the pictures.

Start with a clean, terrifying, moisturized face. Preferably with your hair tied up.


Apply your favorite lipbalm.

I use:


Take a tiny amount of Bare Canvas Paint. Like this much for both lids:

I squeeze that amount onto one finger and take the index finger of my other hand. Then I tap the two fingers together until they hold equal amounts of the paint. This way, I know both of my eyes are equal.
Apply all over from lash to brow.

It really shouldn't look any different.


Take an eyeliner brush, I used MAC's 209 brush, and dip it liberally into Blacktrack Fluidline. Apply a thick line to your lid, getting as close to the lashes as possible. It doesn't have to be perfect.



Then make a wing at the end of the line, like so.


Starting from the inner corner of the eye, draw a rounded line (I follow my eye...bone... thing) and connect with the tip of the wing. This is the step where if there were suddenly a fire and you had to run outside, you'd want to hide your face from helping neighbors.
You will look stupid.



Put some more fluidline on your 209 and apply a thick line to your lower lashline. Clean it up with a q-tip if necessary.



Dip an eyeshadow brush into some black powder. Make sure it really shows up. I use a black eyeshadow from NYX that broke during shipping, so I use it as a loose powder. ^_^

Fill in the area between the line you just drew and your lashline. I typically go a little bit above. Do not blend it upward (or at all for that matter.) Also, go over the lower line with black shadow to darken it.

Here's what it should look like when you're through.



Use the babywipe to clean up any fallout.

Use a q-tip dipped in lotion to straighten up the bottom line.



You will be left with something that looks like this.


Time for Colooorr!! Huzzah!

Dip an eyeshadow brush in some Chrome Yellow E/S.

Apply the Chrome Yellow above the black, at the inner corner. Blend it so it fades about a third of the way.


Next dip an eyeshadow brush in some Overgrown E/S.

Apply it next to the Chrome Yellow, blending it into the yellow and fading it to the end of the black.



Dip an eyeshadow brush in some Aquadistic E/S.

Apply the Aquadistic from where the Overgrown starts, fading toward the end of the black. Blend the Aquadistic into the Chrome Yellow.



Next take Pompous Blue E/S (my favorite!).

This time start at the outer corner of the eye, at the end of the black.

Place the Pompous Blue like such:

Blend toward the Overgrown/Aquadistic blend.

Drag some down to the lower line.


And you get this:


Reapply some black to redarken it.



Take some Teal Pigment. Apply a small amount over the Pompous Blue on the "side." It won't make a HUGE difference, but adds a bit of shimmer.



Then take a dry, clean brush and go over the colors a couple of times to blend them throughout.


Now for the face.

Start with Studio Fix Fluid. I use it in NC25.

Dab it wherever you need it (I need it all over). I do use my fingers, but I make sure to wash my hands thoroughly before doing so.

Use a brush to even it all out.

I use a smaller brush for my forehead so I don't mess with my eyemakeup.


Dip a giant poofy brush in some Studio Fix. I use it in C30.

I use this amount for each of four sections I separate my face: One cheek, the other cheek, my forehead, and my nose/between my eyebrows.



Then you get:


Next, take some Blot Powder. I use it in Medium.

I use the same amount for each of four sections (like with the studio fix)


I use the babywipe from earlier to gently wipe off my eyebrows. Any foundation that has settled in them will give them a greyish appearance.



Reapply chapstick.

Then I put on mascara.


Here are a few completed eyeshots.


Before:

After:



I really hope this was helpful and didn't bore anybody. If anyone tries this look, I'd love to see their results. Thanks for reading!

Thanks everybody for all of your kind comments =)

And for those of you saying you're too old, I'm sure you're not ^_^ I wear this as an everyday look, which some might think is too extreme, but whenever I have something "professional" to attend like a job interview I tone it down a lot.

Thanks again =D

I like this, I think I'm going to try it but substitute different colors for the blue, green, and yellow. (I have green eyes, so I'm not very well suited for blue)

Aah! I really love this Tut! loved all the million pics, too. lol Some tut's are a little vague with the pics.

it's a fun look, I probably never would have tried...UNTIL TONIGHT!

I'm going to post my "ATTEMPT" (put that in caps, cuz that is merely all it was, an attempt lol.) in the FOTD'S section, right now.

Thanks Again. Buh-bye.
