Flawless skin & glowing sexy eyes!

So today I am having my 2 top wisdom teeth removed. I am not looking forward to it. My husband took the baby to the sitter so that I could have a relaxing day before I have to head to the dentist. So I have the whole house to myself & I need to do something to keep my mind off my appointment. So i figured what better time to make a tutorial?! I have been promising to do one forever & now I finally have the time & don't have to worry about being interrupted by my 2 y/o. So here goes.........

Everything is by MAC unless otherwise stated...

Brushes that I used:
#213
#239
#224
#217
#263
#190
#129
#109
#187

For the eyes:
Spiked brow pencil
UDPP
Ricepaper e/s
Soft Brown e/s
Antiqued e/s
Handwritten e/s
Carbon e/s
Blacktrack Fluidline
Cargo The Reverse Lipliner
L'Oreal HIP mascara
Ardell Demi Wispies lashes

For the face:
MAC Matte
Studio Fix Fluid foundation NC42
Studio Finish concealer NW30
Select Moisturecover concealer NW30
Medium Dark loose blot powder
Shadester sculpting powder
Refined Golden bronzer
Coppertone blush

Lips:
Hover l/l
Cherish l/s
Love Nectar l/g

Start out with a clean moisturized face. I already did my eyebrows, because seeing me without them is not cute. Trust me!

Apply UDPP to lids, I just use my fingertips to do this...

Apply Ricepaper e/s to your browbone using the #213 brush...

Next blend Soft Brown e/s into the crease using the #224 brush...

Then apply Antiqued e/s to the lids using a #213 brush...

Go back into your crease with the #224 brush to blend any harsh lines. Then apply Handwritten e/s to the outer crease with the #217 brush...

Now take Carbon e/s on the #217 brush & just add it to the outer corners staying below the crease...

Take a wipe & clean up any fall out & use to to "sharpen" your outer corners...

Apply some Fast Response eyecream under the eyes, this will create a smooth canvas for your concealer so that it glides on & you don't have to worry about tugging on your eyes...
DSC02144.jpg


Now apply your Studio Finish concealer. I prefer to use my fingertips for this particular concealer because it goes on better & blends easier with the warmth of your hand...

DSC02146.jpg


I'm using MAC Matte as my foundation primer, so just apply a thin layer all over the face...
DSC02147.jpg


Now time for foundation, take your Studio Fix Fluid & dot it around in each area of your face...
DSC02148.jpg


Then take your #190 brush & blend, blend!

To make sure my under eye area is as flawless as possible, I am going to add some Select Moisturecover concealer under my eyes & buff it in with the #224 brush to give it an airbrushed look...
DSC02152.jpg


Finish it all over by buffing some loose blot powder all over the face with a #129 brush...
DSC02153.jpg

DSC02154.jpg

And now you all know my secret that I really don't have flawless skin, I just really know how to fake it LOL!

Now suck in those cheeks & contour them using a #109 brush & Shadester contour powder...
DSC02155.jpg


I also bring it up into my temples & hair line...
DSC02156.jpg


Highlight the face using Refined Golden bronzer & a #187 brush...
DSC02157.jpg


Stick out those apples & apply Coppertone blush to them using a #129 brush...
DSC02158.jpg

DSC02159.jpg


Now back to finish off the eyes: Apply Blacktrack Fluidline along top lashline using a #263 brush...
DSC02160.jpg


Now because I have really small eyes, I want to open them up & make them as bright as possible. So I am going to add Cargo The Reverse Lipliner to the lower waterline. I love this pencil, because it's a light flesh color & it gives you the same effect as using a white pencil without being as harsh...
DSC02161.jpg

DSC02162.jpg


Now apply a few coats of mascara to the top & bottom lashes...
DSC02163.jpg


Grab your false lashes & apply a thin line of glue to the band & let it dry for about 35 to 45 seconds, then apply as close to the lashes as possible...

After they dry, take just a bit of liquid liner to cover the strip.

Now for the finishing touch, adding some juicy lips to this look! I lined my lips using Hover l/l...
DSC02166.jpg


Then added Cherish l/s on top...
DSC02168.jpg


I topped it off with a coat of Love Nectar l/g...

And there you have it! Our finished look..........

Thank you! I'll try to do a brow tutorial one of these days. But, honestly I just kind of fumble around with them until they look right. Some days they look good, others they look horrible. I don't consider myself an expert at doing them at all. Even today, I am really not pleased with how they look. Once I get them down to a science I'll def do a tutorial though!

Don't worry! I had my wisdom teeth taken out too! It surprised me how little pain it was. I went under anesthetic and then was on some sort of pain drug for a week and it went by really quick. And it heals quickly too! Don't worry! Lovely eotd!
