Ok, bear in mind that this is made in photoshop, so all harsh lines are meant to be blended. I don’t mention specific brushes because I’m not going to presume that everyone has the same brushes I do, so, use what you’re comfortable with in each step, and blend. Blending is our friend. All the following pictures are thumbnailed, so you’ll need to click them to see the colors on each step, because sizing them down made it somewhat difficult to follow.

Start with your face. I put my foundation / concealer / any contouring I’m going to do on first. In case you missed it, here is a very detailed contouring tutorial that you may find useful.

Do your brow, and put Soft Ochre Paint Pot from lash to brow bone, with the concentration of the color being on the lid, and just kind of blending it upward to the brow. I actually use my finger for this because I’ve found it makes it spread better. You can use a synthetic brush as well.

Pick up some Rule eyeshadow and put it on your inner lid, about 2/3 of the way to the outside. The creamy texture of the paint pot product is just going to grab the devil out of this color, so be prepared to have to blend, but it’s not difficult, just use long strokes, and pack the product on. You’re also going to take and put Rule on your outside of your lower lashline, about 1/3 of the way across.

Get some Post Haste on a new brush, fluffier the better, and bring it across the outside corner of your lid. Keep the main color on the outside lid, and just blend it across the Rule to prevent any harsh lines

Bright Fuchsia is one of those colors that “a l’il dab’ll do ya”, because seriously, all you have to do is dot your brush into this pigment and you’ve got more than enough color to take across your crease. Blend this, and don’t put too much on at once, it’s easier to add this color than to take it away.

Pick up some Orange shadow (or Genuine Orange pigment) and put it just above the inner corner of your lid. You want the rule to still show, but you also want that depth between Rule and Bright Fuchsia. Yes, there is still going to be a bare triangle on what is essentially your inner V.

Pick up some Soba and fill in your little bare triangle there, and put it on your browbone as well, for the highlight. Use a much lighter hand on the browbone than on the inner triangle (or V), and blend it down into the Bright Fuchsia to soften any harsh lines. Make little circles here, because you could accidentally wind up smearing hot pink goodness all over your eye.

Engraved was my liner of choice…sharpen it, then line as close to your upper lashline as possible. When you’re done, take a q-tip and smudge it gently.

Along your inner lower lashline, you’re going to put some Seedling eyeshadow. Only a little but it’s just enough to make the orange and pink pop a little more, and it’s not over powering.

I use Tarte’s 4-in-1 Lights, Camera, Lashes! Mascara because honestly, I love it. You can use whatever you love, preferably in black, two coats, then comb them out. Don’t forget to curl your lashes if you’re not like me and actually have a lash curler. I still haven’t caved to buy a new one since stepping on mine. *sigh*

For blush, I used Fuchsia pigment, applied with a stippling brush. It’s a barely pink pink, but it’s sooooo pretty. Blend it in circles (I love circles, can you tell?) and then…

Break out your Pearl Blossom BP, and put it on the apples of your cheeks.

Lips for this look were done with a coat of Zandra lipstick, with Pink D’Lush over it from the outside fading inward, and then Petal Pusher on top.

And, there you have it. I hope you enjoyed this, and found it useful!! If you decide to recreate this look, I want to see pictures!
