So, by request, I made a tutorial. Mostly because for some weird reason I woke up at 9 oclock this morning and I dont work until 2. And my boyfriend always sleeps til atleast 1. So I was bored.

OKAY. This is basically the same look I do EVERY day, except I usually switch it up a bit with the color scheme. Like I'll do blue, purple, green, pink, etc.. But all in the same style. Just depends on what color I wear for the day.

WHAT YOU'LL NEED

MAC eyeshadows:

Pink Freeze or White Frost
Gesso (if you use Pink Freeze)
Elecktra
Tilt
Freshwater
Deep Truth
Carbon

MAC Pearl CCB

Your choice of black liquid and pencil liner.
Your choice of black and blue mascaras.

And your normal face stuff. This is bascially just an eye tutorial. You know what works for your face.

(ok.. now to go resize and reorder 53 pictures)
(ok.. i'm back.. AAH that was a pain)

start with a bare face. and make this face in the mirror. just so you appreciate the final product much more.

hide the little monsters.

aimeemakeup2004-1.jpg


and lets powder our noses. (i don't normally use foundation. i know. i'm weird. but im still in high school, get out of school at 11, then work a day job AND a night job every day. and i dont have time to fix it and stuff when i sweat [yeah.. i live in south florida too])

aimeemakeup2005-1.jpg


lets groom our brows. i use Era e/s. but use whatevers best for you (duh)

aimeemakeup2006-1.jpg


action shot!

aimeemakeup2001-1.jpg


Take your Pearl CCB and apply it under your brows in the highlight area. I use my finger. I really dont even know what youre supposed to use with CCBs.. A lip brush? I'm dumb. and shouldnt be making a tutorial i know.. haha.

aimeemakeup2007-1.jpg


like so.

aimeemakeup2011.jpg


okay. its there. you just cant see it because my camera is a butthole.

aimeemakeup2012-1.jpg


now the fun part. take FRESHWATER and a cute little sponge tipped applicator (NO BRUSHES ALLOWED.

)

aimeemakeup2013-1.jpg


apply it in the MIDDLE of your eye. so you look like a weirdo.

aimeemakeup2015-1.jpg


now here is where you would normally use white frost. but i left mine at my moms house.. so pink freeze will work. (i do it all the time)

aimeemakeup2016.jpg


apply it in the inner corner of your lid. dont worry about blending yet.

aimeemakeup2017.jpg


we should be looking about like this. i know. it looks crazy. trust me itll get better. =]

aimeemakeup2019.jpg


now its DEEP TRUTHs turn.

aimeemakeup2020.jpg


apply it on the outside of your lid keeping the overall shape round.

aimeemakeup2022.jpg


it should look like this. (btw - i feel like kinda stupid and insane talking my way through this in my head)(just sayin...)

aimeemakeup2026.jpg


take TILT and apply it betweeeen pink freeze and freshwater

aimeemakeup2027.jpg


blahblahblah itll look like this (pretend you dont notice how dumb i look)

aimeemakeup2029.jpg


take GESSO and apply it overrrr PINK FREEZE.

aimeemakeup2030.jpg


and it go a lil sumptin li-lili-like dis (runaway LOVE.....)

aimeemakeup2033.jpg


itll look like this. now i took ELECTRA and softened up the line between GESSO and TILT.. but i didnt take a picture. =[

aimeemakeup2034.jpg


go back over all colors to darken them up.
and itll look like this.

aimeemakeup2035.jpg


Okay you could Shroom here.. because most people wont have this. BUT I LOVE IT. Sonia Kashuk Golden. apply it in the highlight area. AND blend it in with the other colors to soften the harsh line.

aimeemakeup2036.jpg


now this next part is very important:

aimeemakeup2037.jpg


make sure in between eyes you clean your brush out ON YOUR BOYFRIENDS CARPET WHILE HES SLEEPING(it works the best)

(btw im like so terrified my computer is going to freeze or something while im doing this.)

aimeemakeup2039.jpg


it should look like this.

aimeemakeup2041.jpg


now with a tapered blending brush go back (AGAIN) over ALL the colors.. making sure to blend them all this time.

aimeemakeup2043.jpg


we should be here.

aimeemakeup2042.jpg


eyeliner time!

aimeemakeup2048.jpg


blahblahblah

aimeemakeup2014.jpg


i like to take CARBON and go over my liner to soften it.

aimeemakeup2032.jpg


take your mascara..

aimeemakeup2038.jpg

eighmii!!! great tut girl! i've been trying to steer clear of brushes all of this time (thinking it will make me feel more like a makeup artist haha) only to find out the sponge tip apps do a better job to apply good bold color.. i might scratch the 239 brush off of my wishlist and run out and buy a box of disposable sponge tip apps instead!

kewlies...lolooll you rubbed your brush on your bf's carpet eww lol... i thought i was weird to rub the color out on my hand and arm LOOLLOL

please make more tuts!! this was fun!

great tut, but use better lighting next time so it doesn't look so washed out.. and don't wipe your brushes on the floor. it might work, but who knows what minuscule creepy crawlies get on the brush and onto your face!
