Tutorial Contest Winner February 2009: Bright and smokey look with MUFE #92!
Hi everyone!
Here’s the look that I’m going for today:
I tried to be as thorough as possible, but if you’re unclear about anything, just ask away!
I’ve already done my foundation and brows before making this tutorial. On my face I used (All MAC unless noted):
Studio sculpt foundation in NC40 with a 109 brush
Select cover up concealer in NW20 for under eyes with a 188 skunk brush
Select cover up concealer in NC35 with the 195 brush
MSF natural in medium dark
For my brows I used:
Clear brow wax
Maybelline define-a-brow n dark brown
Mystery eyeshadow to set it
Ok, so let’s get started!
Here’s a picture of my half-done face lol
Apply UDPP all over the lid and blend out with your finger.
Take your Sea me shadestick and apply it on your eyelid, staying below the crease.
Blend out the harsh edges with your finger.
Take your Cool heat e/s and your 239 brush, and pack it on the inner corner of your eye, but not the tearduct.
Take your MUFE #92 and your 217 brush and apply it on the rest of your eyelid, blending it with Cool heat.
Use your 224 brush and blend it some more by using a circular motion.
It should look somewhat like this now..
Take your Bright sunshine e/s (PRO) and a 228 brush and apply it on your tearduct.
Blend it with a 224.
Touch up Cool heat if you feel like it.
Take Shroom e/s and your 227 brush, then apply it just below your browbone while blending out any harsh lines.
Take Graphology e/s and a 222 and apply it in circular motion, focusing on the outer corner.
Blend again if you’re not happy with it lol..
Now, moisten a q-tip with some makeup remover to make a sharp line. Clean up the area underneath it as well.
Take your Blacktrack fluidline and a 266 brush and do your top liner however you prefer.
With Feline kohl power, line your lower lashline and waterline.
Smudge it with 219 brush.
Then take Carbon e/s and your 219 brush again and apply it on top of Feline so that it’ll stay longer.
Curl your lashes and apply your mascara. Today I’m using my Maybelline Define-a-lash.
I fixed my liner and this is what it looks like so far.
I love false lashes so I’m gonna put one on today. I’m using MAC #33 lashes.
Put a dot of Duo lash glue on the neck of a q-tip, then apply it on the lash strip. Wait like 30 seconds or more until the glue gets tacky, and then put it on, starting from the outer edge inwards.
(haha you can see that I haven't done my nails on the other hand
)
Add liquid liner to cover the lash band. I use my UD Perversion as always.
This is what it looks like so far.
I contour using a Studio stick concealer in NW45, which is a couple shades darker than my skintone. Watch petrilude’s video on youtube
I just make a line and blend it with my 188 brush.
This is what it looks like so far. The contour is clearer in real life though.
Ok, so now take your blush of choice. I’m using Gentle mineralize blush and a 181 kabuki brush. Swirl it on your cheeks.
To highlight, I’m using my Peach shimmer waves from The Body Shop. I guess this is like a dupe for Bobbi Brown shimmer bricks. I’m using my 165 brush to highlight.
For the lips, I start by using Sublime culture cremestick liner to line and fill my lips.
On top of that, I’m using Jubilee lipstick.
I was gonna put on a boring nude lipgloss, but then, I decided to add something a little more fun! So I’m gonna use Nice kitty lipgloss
Alright, last but not least, spray your Fix+ on a fluffy brush and tap it all over your face to give that extra glow!
Finally, the results!!!
I hope you guys enjoy this tutorial and I hope it helps some of you!
