This is my VERY first tutorial.

Hopefully I did it right...I hope you all enjoy!!
The look we are going for:
This is the stuff I used:
Face stuff:
Studio Fix Fluid in NW20, Studio fix powder in C3, Moisturizer, prep and prime skin.
Sculpt and Shape in Lightsweep/Shadester, Pinch Me blush, Pink Opal pigment.
Eye stuff:
Painterly Paint Pot, Cash Flow Paint Pot, Soft Brown e/s, Folie e/s, Embark e/s, Brule e/s, Gorgeous Gold e/s, Carbon e/s, Corduroy e/s, Blacktrack f/l, Plushlash Mascara, Maybeline Great Lash, Graphblack t/k, UD 24/7 pencil in Covet, Goldenaire Softsparkle pencil, Duo adhesive, #7 lashes, Pink Opal pigment.
Lips:
Love Nectar lustreglass
Brushes:
129, 150, 168, 217, 219, 222, 239, 252, 266, 266se, 311.
Start out with a bare face
(**eeek I don't know if I've ever really shown myself on here with no make-up!**)
NOTE: I usually do my eyes first. I feel it is easier to clean up any fallout from eyeshadows/pigments before the face make-up is on, if I do my face first and make a mess I end up caking the make-up on to fix it. You can do whatever you are comfortable with.
Put Cash Flow paint pot on the eyelid up to the crease. (I use my finger for this because it puts the right amount of product on and doesn't leave it streaky like my brush does.)
Add Painterly Paint pot from the crease up to the brow bone (pretty much anywhere the shadow will be)
Pick up the transitional color Soft Brown e/s with the 217 brush. This color is not really meant to be seen, it's there to help the other colors blend well.
Apply it to the crease and outer corner of the eye, blending it into the paint pot.
Add Folie e/s in the same place as Soft Brown going just a little bit higher into the crease. Blend the colors together with the same 217 brush.
Add Embark e/s to the outer corner and crease using the 222 brush. This brush is packed tighter than the 217 so it will blend the color in a more precise area. Put it in the actual crease it self to add depth to the combo.
Pick up Carbon e/s with the 219 (bullet) brush.
Add it only to the outer corner of the eye. Pack it on well.
Then blend the color into the crease with the 217 brush.
Take the highlight color Brule e/s and put it on the brow bone with the 252 brush. Blend it downward into the other colors. You don't need a lot!!
Take the 217 and blend the crease again slightly so there is no harsh line from the highlight color to the crease.
Add Gorgeous Gold e/s to the lid with the 239 brush. Pack the color on. Take the 217 and again blend the crease so there are no harsh lines.
Pick up Blacktrack f/l with the 311 brush.
Apply it to the lower lash line. (I go directly on the waterline but again that is personal preference)
Add Blacktrack f/l to the upper lash line with the 266 brush. Try and keep the liner thin.
To "complete" the liner look add Graphblack t/k to the upper waterline.
Put your moisturizer and face primer on.
Then onto the foundation.
Put Studio Fix Fluid in various spots on the face.
Blend into the face.
Pick up the Studio Fix powder with the 150 brush and apply.
Apply Goldenaire Softsparkle Pencil on the lower lash line in the inner corners of the eye.
Apply UD 24/7 pencil in Covet to the lower lash line from Goldenaire out.
Apply a coat of Plushblack.
Then add a coat of Maybelline Great Lash for a little more oomph.
Curl your lashes.
Pick up the Sculpt and Shape (sculpt side) with the 168 brush.
Make a fish face and apply to the hallows of the cheeks.
Apply Pinch Me blush with the 129 brush.
Grab Corduroy e/s (or the e/s of your choice
) with the 266se brush (this one is thicker than the normal 266 and fits my brows perfectly) and fill them in. I only did one brow in the next picture, look at the HUGE difference!
Add dots of Pink Opal Pigment to the brow bone and just above the apples of your cheeks.
apply with the 129 brush for the cheeks and the 252 brush to the brow.
Apply a thin strip of Duo Adhesive to the #7 lashes.
I usually apply the lashes from the outside toward the inside of the eye. If there is any glue showing add some more Blacktrack f/l to cover it up once the glue is dry.
Add Love Nectar Lusterglass.
and we're done. I hope you all liked it!!
WOW! that took a very long time! I hope I did ok. Let me know what you think. Any CC would be awesome! Have a great weekend everyone!!
And I just have to say, I REALLY admire those who do this a lot. Tutorials are A LOT of work and you do them all the time for the lovely people of Specktra!
Thank you!
