Okay...so here goes my first tut! It's pretty basic, but it was whay fun to do.

1.Starting with a bare clean face. Scary Canary! Moisturized and a spritz of Mac Fix+.

2. Left - Dot Vincent Longo Concealer in medium under eyes with ring finger, and then apply Mac Hyper Real Foundation all over face (including lips) in NW20 with Mac 190 Foundation brush. I also brushed on a little Mac Sheer pressed powder on forehead, nose and chin to reduce a little bit of the glow.
Right - Dot on the superfantastic Urban Decay Primer Potion on eyelids and along lower lash line with ring finger.

3. Left - With Smashbox #12 liner brush apply Smashbox Browtech in Smashing Auburn. (For the Smashing Redhead! har har)
Fill in entire lid and brow with Mac e/s in Vellum.
Right - Apply Mac e/s in tilt on lid from lashes to crease. I used a Smashbox #15 brush.

4. Here's another look at the above.
Add Blue Storm pigment to outer corner of lid.

5. Left - Now, go and blend, girl! I used my Mac #224 brush.
Center - Line lower lash line and water line with Sephora eye pencil in #220.
Right - Line upper lash line nice and close to lashes with Estee Lauder Artist Pencil in Softsmudge Black. (Note the thinly-veiled attempt to hide the unkept eyebrows with copy over top)

6. Apply 2 coats of Mascara - I used Max Factor 2000 Calorie in Rich Black.

7. Now for the blush. My image on the left was a bit blurry so I am illustrating with the magic of photoshop. I used Smashbox Highlighter Quad. Sorry, I don't know the exact names of the shades. I put one color above the other in 2 stripes and then gently 'blur' with my fingers. The results are on the right.

8. Right - Then the cherry on top! Mac Lipglass in Pink Clash. (It makes me happy, that stuff.) Left - Another glamour-shot of the eyes.

9. And I let my (somewhat greezy and brushed-in-haste) hair down for the final shot. Thanks for taking a look. THE END!
