Purple/Green Tutorial
This was originally intended to be a tutorial on Vaseline (how to use it as a base), but i decided to go ahead and make the tutorial on one of my favorite looks to date! Purple and green eye! I hope you enjoy and can find this useful! (Excuse the stupid faces)
The tools:
Face:
Dove Moisturizer
Covergirl TruBlend Foundation
Covergirl liquid concealer
Covergirl TruBlend Pressed Powder
Covergirl Bronzer
Covergirl Blush
Eyes:
Old Covergirl Pressed Powder to put under my eyes (you could use loose powder for this)
Milani eyeliner in White
Vaseline
Milani eyeshadow in Garden Mist
Milani eyeshadow in Shock
Milani eyeshadow in Sheer Sand
Milani loose eyeshadow in Powderpuff
Maybeline Ultra Liner liquid eyeliner
Rimmel eyeliner in Lavender
Covergirl PerfectBlend eyeliner
L'oreal Telescopic Lash Mascara
Brushes:
Sponge applicator for moisturizer
Foundation Brush
Concealer Brush
Bronzer Brush
Blush Brush
Small eyeshadow Brush
Big eyeshadow Brush
eyelash curler
Step 1:
Apply moisturizer to your freshly cleaned face. (gross, I know)
Step 2:
Apply foundation and use your foundation brush to cover your face.
Step 3:
Dab concealer on the spots you want to conceal and with your foundation spots blend in the concealer.
Step 4:
Use your big powder brush to put powder on your face.
Step 5:
Using your bronzing brush, apply bronzer to the spots on your face where the sun would naturally hit.
Step 6:
Using your blush brush, apply blush to the apples of your cheeks and extend towards your hairline.
Step 7:
Apply a thick layer of powder under your eyes to catch and eyeshadow that may fall off of the brush.
Step 8:
Take your white liner and line the shape of your eyeshadow, a good trick is to have the eyeshadow follow the shape of your eyebrow.
Step 9:
Using your finger, apply a very thin layer all of the within your shadow outline, you can go over the white liner too if you want.
Step 10:
Using your small eyeshadow get a good amount of green eyeshadow and apply it to half of your lid.
Step 11:
Using your small eyeshadow brush (wipe off the green) apply a good amount of your purple and apply it to the other half of your lid. We'll blend in a second.
Step 12:
Blending! I'm not the best at blending but here it goes. Using your big, fluffy eye shadow brush blend the green and purple with eachother, you may have to grab more color as you're doing this.
Step 13:
Take your highlight (mine is my Milani loose powder) and apply it under your brow bone.
Step 14:
Take the Milani Sheer Sand and apply it between the shadow and your highlight, blend them together.
Step 15:
Take your liquid liner and apply a thin line in the outline you want. Go back and fill in the line.
Step 16:
Brush off the powder under your eye.
Step 17:
Apply the lavender eyeliner under your eye, this can be any color. It's just a base.
Step 18:
Dip your small eyeshadow brush into your purple shadow and line half of your lower lashline with it, following the line of the liner.
Do the same thing with the green.
Step 19:
Take your highlighter and dap some around your tear duct.
Step 20:
Take your black eyeliner and apply on your waterline.
Step 21:
Curl lashes and apply mascara!
Don't forget the bottom!!
Step 22:
Take your powder brush and go over your face to remove any shine.
Step 23:
Smile, you're done!! :-)
