Rushmetal Tutorial - PIC HEAVY (42)

Well-known member
This is very mediocre- and i have just a few warnings for you.
My camera slowly dies throughout the process, you can see it happening. Its like watching a horror flick. Hehe.
Somewhere in the multitude of pictures- you can see a dark pigment line on my browbone. I had no idea it was there, the entire time.
You will also notice my extreme need to wax my eyebrows.
I mess it up, a number of times. And my camera is bad, so you can't really see the different colors. It kind of looks like a blank slate.
I have FAR to many pictures, you will also notice that. You may also notice my sarcastic commentary. The sarcastic ness comes from that i closed out of specktra half way through posting this the first time. Here we go.

Products:
I changed my mind part of the way through these, and some products are not in the picture.
l_824a36f210038189a34682509fb63b86.jpg

Get out you 242 brush, and cover it with Indianwood Paint Pot.
l_6d8dfdd66f8d3e27ffe7febf2933d7f2.jpg

Now apply it all over your eyelid, this can be messy- we'll clean it up later.
l_1ff32e0497a074bc20e8a91d8359ca66.jpg

Dig around and find your Gold Mode pigment.
l_199604f8cac5b31e0e27e699ee68ce50.jpg

Pack up your brush with it.
l_7be80e2020d389dafffa0ab67bca0c52.jpg

Then apply it all on top of Indianwood. Should look like this.
l_5925db79c7a06621471d1b7218d2e7e2.jpg

Success! Now fish around and find your Rushmetal pigment.
l_d9471645fb9e68be7d04a94c28a139bf.jpg

Now pack up your pencil brush with it.
l_35f37e8072bcd4652d2d3b38f647b306.jpg

And then apply it to the first 1/3 of your eyelid. This will not stick properly- but we just want a subtle color.
l_f5352cfd40a2ddca2dfb818ce8d3d78c.jpg

Then dip your 224 into Rushmetal pigment.
l_76ab9b82a30f86dc9793f379e022f815.jpg

Then blend out the line made by Rushmetal. There probably won't be much of a noticable difference.
l_aa2a9f06dd78b0339f7dbc580c356bcd.jpg

Pull Cocomotion pigment out of its hiding spot.
l_1c74416d2339650b0c742f05795a7679.jpg

Dip a rectangular shaped brush into Cocomotion. This is where the downfall of my camera begins.
l_30d73142796a8c69ad21d709ed239c0b.jpg

Apply to your crease, starting at the end of you eye and blending inwards.
l_9ba4c8e304b8d4229af455e4dafcb43e.jpg

This is what it should look like. Here is where i cleaned up the edges- and you can now see the arival of the mysterious dark line.
l_e5a9528a742a4d0258243bb864997238.jpg

And then i cleaned up the fallout.
l_7baa9a64036a23060e6cc290b3f35890.jpg

Now take out your fabulous and amazing Shimmersand Shadestick.
l_a3f860b021226b1ad15347741be5cb7b.jpg

Run this along your lower lashline- but don't put it away when your finished, i end up bringing it out later.
l_9e33702b8a3447cebb87d7d683bdb49b.jpg

Then pull out your eyemake remover and a q-tip.
l_4366b0cd09206ccba1e7db63a23e6067.jpg

Cover the q-tip in the remover.
l_17dfd8b090f1923cb9852625fb8f9fac.jpg

Now clean up the messy edges left by the shadestick.
l_e4e3c9a2157dfc75802affe8f68146fb.jpg

Pull back out Indianwood, and dip your 266 into it.
l_3ef5694b5c4b24425c815f11b302790a.jpg

Then dip that into Rushmetal pigment.
l_0afab646c02c08c9c0686df7af12de10.jpg

Drag this along Shimmersand- making for a fabulous "sandy" texture. Hehe- like my pun? I know, lame.
l_719f8bf1e5e45a242bd8a4bfe958e9b0.jpg

Ok, pull out your 209....
l_97dbb3f6ec85aa1b7b0a0059d3c93abc.jpg

Swipe it a couple times into dipdown fluidline.
l_3c51ef1bd4f16767ce238eccc30cc09a.jpg

And apply it to your waterline.
l_61d6e8fc75499156ec6e19c80b714d52.jpg

And somewhere between here i do believe i put shimmersand around my tear ducts. You'll see it appear out of thin air eventually.
Get out your 224, and dip it in Quick Frost pigment.
l_8039b2d27a6d9d6d01bd94abc2ca18bb.jpg

Apply this to your browbone, blend downwards. Should look like this.
l_f5c723397c3f3dd648b40d4e24eb2a35.jpg

But that didn't quite blend out the harsh line left by the paint pot. So, drag out your nifty "harsh line blending brush", dip it in Quickfrost again, and blend to your little hearts desire.
l_9a82f806867cbe2052219e051e21ee44.jpg

Should look like this, and yes- clean up the fallout eventually.
l_bb45372aca66e7291a8e7ba21d4acca4.jpg

Yay- eyes done!
Ok, so now for the face. I am going to sound ridiculous- but mix your MAC Select Tint NC20 with your moisterizer. I'm using MAC Studio Moisture Cream.
I am doing this because i am also going to be using a natural MSF. And i just want it to be light.
l_27e81c1d6c52216c5ff7c5b5c282aea3.jpg

Mix it together.
l_d68a8e78ca0909f02628c3fc1e30cc28.jpg

And suddenly- from out of no where the one, the only, the amazing, 190 brush appears to save your eyes from your hideous skin! Duh Duh Duh....
l_d770daab700db1f774469fe01e0b2d6d.jpg

Take a wet cosmetic sponge and smooth out any harsh lines you may have.
l_9fd83c5d0d881fb3c637827254643598.jpg

Then take out your Natural MSF in Light. Use your super duperity powder brush and dust it on your face.
l_1e1f4d49bf7a006e69ebd07d95e78cec.jpg

The end result:
l_01330e30c8a351fdcc88be50135c6e08.jpg

For a bit of a peachy glow- grab your Sephora Stippling brush and Gold Spill MSF.
l_5d55658cfd99fe3e43ddbc72056284b9.jpg

Apply the MSG starting at the apples of your cheeks and moving upward to your temples, for extra glow drag the brush down along the side of your face starting at your temple- and down towards your jaw.
l_c243d56258e9d689549db2c1f27bf84b.jpg

Should look like this:
l_78c99f49e0bdc233d0d6ee5579c4475e.jpg

The next step i did backwards. I did my lips before my mascara- how will you ever find it in you to forgive me?
Begrudingly apply Moonbathe tinted lipglass to your lips.
l_ddfe7e7aebbe57e3537f06912229f4d9.jpg

The terribly depressing result:
l_09af6a8b94014fa3334c1413dc4c56bb.jpg

Now we go back with the mascara, i'm using MAC Mascara X in Black X.
l_7d4056c48fb6e38b06e36724b0573a63.jpg

Apply to your loverly lashes.
l_f57d05b805331b6a1e5c20feb9db425f.jpg

And view the now adorned lashes:
l_ecccd49a8d0d8e133ef3e69d9599a0b7.jpg

Then take out Bourjois Yes to Volume! No to Clumps!
l_8b136d65d299addbdf716cf503788705.jpg

l_0f65870865f3a93b3a3f512653fea467.jpg

Apply it to your bottom lashes. Should look like this. If it doesn't, we've got a problem.

Within the last 3 photographs you just witnessed the downfall of my camera. Sorry ladies. But, here is an idea. You do the same or a similar look and then post your final pictures in place of mine. All done!

Total props to people who do these alot. That was not fun. Hehehe.

Thanks! I really like Gold Mode, but Rushmetal is kind of chunky, and Quick Frost is really messy. I just couldn't pass up the colors!

I love this!! Can't wait until I get my piggie samples so that I can try it.

Just a suggestion if you try it, put the rushmetal on the 1/3 before gold mode. And just put gold mode on the 2/3. Because the color of rushmetal vanished within hours.

Thank you so much ladies!

Thanks!

So I sould get Copper Sparkle instead of Rushmetal, since it's chunky.

Thanks so much ladies! I appreciate it!

And i don't want to tell you what to buy- go and in and look and decide for yourself. And i have never swatched or used Copper Sparkle, so i don't know. But, Rushmetal is still a gorgeous color- don't get me wrong- i am just not fond on the texture- and i am sure with better technique this would look nicer.

Holy crap, do not, DO NOT, continue to use Fluidlines on your waterlines!

Use a pencil or shadow ONLY! Using fluidline can potentially damage your eyes.

Honey, calm down. Dipdown has no sparkles, its not metalic. And what you can't see in the picture is that i just swiped it a cross once, and it doesn't cover more that half of my waterline widthwise.It does not touch my actual eye, it does not fill my whole waterline, and i stopped the pine about 3 mm before i was even near the edge of my tearduct. It is also the same way on the other side. It looks like its all the way in my picture- but its not.
Second thing is- no products are reccomended for waterline use. But, i do not do this often, i am not using a LLL on my waterline- and i really do know what i am doing. Thank you for your concern though.

Sorry about that, I didn't mean to come off like a tool, it was out of genuine concern. Every MUA artist I've worked with or spoken too just highly advises against it.
