Red Lips and Neutral Eyes
What I Used:
FACE:
Studio Tech
Blot Powder
Sun Twist Beauty Powder
Mellow Rave Highlight Powder
Afterdusk Blush
EYES:
Porcelaine/Browning Brow Shader
UDPP
Wedge e/s
Bamboo e/s
Soba e/s
Ricepaper e/s
Dipdown f/l
Shiseido Mascara Base
Shiseido Lifting Mascara
LIPS:
Pucker Tendertone
Brick-O-La Lipstick

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Start out with a freshly cleaned and moisturized face
Apply your foundation (I'm using MAC Studio Tech)
Tada! Haha, your skintone should be evened out.
Set your foundation with your choice of powder (using MAC Blot Powder)
If you're like me and your foundation is a bit lighter than your hairline, apply your choice of powder to the hairline to even out the tone (using MAC Sun Twist Beauty Powder). Thanks Russianfortunecookie for the tip!
Fill in your brows using a stiff, angled brush. I prefer using powder (MAC Brow Shader).
Brows are looking okay, eh?
Apply UDPP or preferred base from lash line to brow.
Apply a matte brown shadow to the crease (using MAC Wedge e/s)
How it should look (I know it's kind of hard to see, sorry for the bad lighting!).
Apply a medium brown shadow to the lid (using MAC Soba e/s)
How it should look...
Apply highlight to the brow bone (using MAC Ricepaper e/s)
How it should look...
Apply a beige shadow in between the highlight and crease color to blend (using MAC Bamboo e/s)
Line your upper lashline, lower lashline, and waterline with a brown liner using an angled liner brush (using MAC Dipdown Fluidliner). Make it as thick or as thin as you like, I prefer a thicker line.
Curl those lashes!!!! (using my Tarte lash curler)
The curled lashes without mascara..
Apply your mascara base and mascara (Shiseido Base and Lifting Mascara). I like to apply the base and put the mascara on immediately before the base dried... it works well for me.
The eyes are finished!
Contour cheeks (or attempt to in my case) using a bronzer of your choice (MAC Mellow Rave Highlight Powder). Then apply a pink blush to the apples of your cheeks and cheek bones (using MAC Afterdusk Blush). Don't forget the fishy face!
Does it look sort of like this?
Apply lip balm to lips (using MAC Pucker Tendertone)
Apply red lipstick to lips (using MAC Brick-O-La)
Lips up close... the flash really washed it out.
Eyes up close...
The finished product. I hope y'all enjoyed!
Sorry got a little snap happy  lol hehehe

Re: Red Lips and Neutral Eyes
I love this classic look, but I don't know when to stop with the eye makeup. I tend to put too much eye makeup on and I have red lips fighting with it. You did it absolutely perfect! Thank you so much. Just perfect!
