what we're going for...

100_8553.jpg


100_8552.jpg


I will show you how I got there, one step at a time
winks.gif


100_8383.jpg


start with no makeup on. just a clean, moisturized face, and add vaseline (or whatever else to moisturize your lips)

udppnprepnprime.jpg


add prep&prime and udpp

okay...let's get goin!

100_8386.jpg

100_8391.jpg


take bamboom paint and apply with brush or fingers. I used both. The second picture is the result.

100_8393.jpg


this is what we're working with...
wild and crazy's sea legend, ocean blue from nixie,and some random blue from nixie. I got this pallete from mzreyes so I have no clue what this color is! but i love it
yahoo.gif


100_8396.jpg

start with the sea legend. apply to inner corners. And so you know, I soppy am ridiculously sloppy!!! Clean up as you go or later...

100_8397.jpg


take your nixie color. It has a neat sifter so you won't spil all over if you're clumsy.
100_8397.jpg

go ahead and put some on your brush.
100_8400.jpg

100_8405.jpg

I pack it on and kind of brush it. We're aiming to cover from where we stopped with the wild &crazy to almost the end. maybe 3/4?
100_8410.jpg

you'll end up with something like this more or less

100_8422.jpg

grab the mystery color and pack it on . I used a mary kay signature brush. i have had these for such a long time and i love em!
Oh and don't forget to blend as you go guys!! and blend at the end for good measure =)

100_8423.jpg


100_8424.jpg

100_8432.jpg

end result

oh yeh and we're creating a shape that kind of follows the brow, and it doesn't go that high up. but feel free to alter this to your liking

100_8443.jpg

ok, now lets redo the inner color just for good measure

hightligh.jpg

highlight.jpg


i am now going to add a highlight. this is vue by lancome

100_8450.jpg

okay, so let's line the bottom with some of the nixie mystery color. I dipped my brush in a bit of water first. I pushed around the color because I didn't want to dip it in the actual eyeshadow


connect.jpg

apply to lower lid.


but i think it's...
time to clean up !!
recmove.jpg

i got these from the 99 cent store. they work pretty well actually!
leanup.jpg

start cleaning!! notice how i got the mystery blue ALL over my nose lol

okay, let's move on!

100_8481.jpg

100_8482.jpg

I then traced the waterline with a torquoise eyeliner from makeup forever.

applyingliquid.jpg

i wanted to use blue chrome from mark by avon on the upper lid
finaleyeliner.jpg

now we have this



100_8495.jpg


100_8497.jpg

okay, so now add the scandalash mascara in black from mark by avon

done with eyes, it's time for the face!

100_8507.jpg

take nixie foundation & smear all over with this mac foundation brush

100_8512.jpg





100_8513.jpg

take a smaller brush and use around eyes, mouth and on darker spots. I got this one at target
100_8513.jpg



100_8518.jpg


i left my other powder in my purse so i used Mary Kay's loose powder in bronze 1. I actually really love their face makeup and other stuff

100_8520.jpg

100_8521.jpg

start buffing it in , i used a mary kay powder brush


100_8522.jpg


BLUSHES!
orgasm at top (use this as a highlight), rimmel berry onleft and on the right is mac's fever
100_8524.jpg

start applying under your cheekbone. Now you might not want to add so much as I did. I am in poor lighting nad it didn't look like much but now seeing these, it is lol.

100_8525.jpg

see what i mean...


100_8535.jpg

take berry and apply to cheeks and whereever else

100_8539.jpg


take your highlight and add to nose higher on the cheekbones, etc. Like I said, this is a lot, but it's okay, because we're going to buff it .

100_8541.jpg

take sephora's blush brush and buff. I "moved" the product up.

1w00_8383.jpg

I do my brows last . I use a combo of benefit's brow zings and lancome's couture shadow. I use a mary kay brow brush

100_8544.jpg



we end up with this .

100_8546.jpg

now brush with the other side of the brush to blend more and make it less dark



LIPS time!
I chose this color from smashbox i got in a costco set

100_8548.jpg






100_8549.jpg

we're using the color on the left. It appears to be a nude color though in these pictures it's showing up as pinkish. I put a bit of the color on the right on as well. IRL it is whitegoldish.

100_8550.jpg


100_8551.jpg

it came with a brush but it's too big so use your fingers or another brush if you like


VOILA WE'RE DONE.

100_8552.jpg

SMILE AND LOOK ALIVE (incubus anyone???)

i would love to know too. I think imma take the pallete to the nixie shop and ask them. if you look on their website, you might be able to narrow it down
.

edit...i just looked . It looks like either electric blue or azure
