[kimmy]

i'm not very good with tutorials, but i was incredibly bored this morning...so, here goes nothin'

moisturizer (not pictured)
lip balm (not pictured)
MAC SFF (not pictured)
PF mineral wear
MAC Desirous blush
MAC Refined Golden bronzer
MAC Vanilla pigment (not pictured)
MAC Deep Truth e/s
MAC Tilt e/s
MAC Belle Azure e/s
MAC Rebelrock Blue pigment
Milani Storm e/s
WnW Mega liner
MAC Engraved e/l

MAC Night Affair l/g
NYX Salsa l/g
large powder brush
small foundation brush
fluffy angled brush
skinny angled brush
small eyeshadow brush
fluffy eyeshadow brush
makeup sponge (not pictured)
your usual brow stuff (not pictured)

1. start off with a clean, moisturized face. no makeup, just lip balm (eek!)

2. you may opt to use a base, if so, put it on now. then pick up some Deep Truth e/s with your small eyeshadow brush and apply it to the crease. don't worry about uniformity.

3. apply a little Storm e/s into the outer part of the crease with the same brush.

4. blend with the fluffy eyeshadow brush. it doesn't have to be perfect. then clean it up a little with your fingers.

5. get some Vanilla pigment on the fluffy shadow brush and highlight.

6. pick up some Tilt e/s with the small shadow brush and apply to the inner half of the lid.

7. apply Belle Azure e/s to the outer part of the lid using the same brush. then blend!

8. get a little Rebelrock Blue on your skinny angled brush and apply it to the bottom lashline along the outer half.

9. tightline and do your waterline, then add mascara to curled lashes.

10. dot on your foundation (excuse the face) with the small fndtn brush and blend using the sponge.

11. dip the large powder brush into Desirous 5 times and apply from apples to temples.

12. swipe the fluffly angled brush in Refined Golden twice and apply from hollows to temples. then buff everything together.

13. set everything with Mineral Wear, fill in brows and cover lips in Night Affair. add a few dots of Salsa to your lips and blend!

and you're done!

it's not too good, and not much...but maybe it will help someone a little? i hope

[xsnowwhite]

wow!! im definitly gonna try this.

I never thought about applying e/s in that order either, i usually just do the darker stuff last so ill have to try this

Blue is usually so hard to work with, but it looks like you've totally mastered it! Awesome job!

Btw, I think you'd look really cute with blunt-cut kindergarten style bangs, ever considered it?

 

[als1626]

I don't think I can personally get away with blue (although it looks awesome on you!) but your tutorial was still really helpful to me technique-wise! Thanks
