A Very Lashy Tutorial

[Dark_Phoenix]

Assets. I have 'em. They make lining my eyes impossible.
.................................................

Not those assets you pervert!!!

Lashes. Anyways, I don't wanna use fakies (I'd look like a drag queen, lol) so I made a tutorial based on maximizing natural lashes.
(note: ignore my neck in these photos... I tried a self tanner and I have scarring on my neck. The two don't mix)

Begin with a blank face:

Apply concealer where needed (Aveda Inner Light Concealer 2)

Blend/pat down (note: blended to death later)

Apply foundation (Aveda Inner Light Foundation 2)

Blend into hair and jawline until perfect

Apply eyeshadow base (HIP Eye Color Extender... it's almost clear)

Shadows used: Vanilla (2nd row to the right, 2nd), Petalescent (3rd row to the right, top) and Forgery (2nd row to the right, top)

Apply Vanilla to entire lid, Petalescent to Outer V, Forgery to Inner V

Should look like this

Use slanted Smashbox eyeliner brush to apply MAC Fluidline in Frostlite to waterline (fine/medium size line)

Looks like this

Apply Bobby Brown Gel Eyeliner in Cobalt Ink to lashline VERY VERY finely using a flat eyeliner brush (Stila 13s used here)

Looks like this

Curl lashes w/ Shu Uerma Eyelash Curler... hold for 15-20 seconds each... also! Make sure it alights with lashliner perfectly, or else you get funky creases:

Looks like:

Apply Maybelline Lash Discovery to lashes (one coat), and then wait five seconds and apply Clinique Lash Doubling Mascara (two coats):

Apply Nars blush in Orgasm... smile! Apply to apples of cheeks:

looks like:

Apply Mark LipInk in Pink Tease (it's a pink stain):

Apply MAC Lipglass in Bait (er... bad angle):

All done!!! Holding up bangs so you can see!

Again, your lashes are so beautiful and doe-like! I also like the lightness of the overall look, it makes the lashes stand out without looking like you're really "wearing makeup."

I look down as I apply it, my mirror is tilted so I can apply it easily this way.
