So I was asked this morning to make a tutorial of my eye look on here from a year ago which was mermaid-ish and inspired by VintageOrTacky. I've recreated it using the same products although it's slightly more suited to how I do my makeup now.
The original look is in this post: http://www.specktra.net/t/189599/mermaid-eyes
The only differences are I obviously do my eyebrows differently now, the liquid liner is a bit thicker and winged out, and the purple on the bottom lash line is now thicker.
Products used for the eyes:
Urban Decay Primer Potion
Urban Decay Electric Palette: Fringe, Chaos, Gonzo, Freak and Urban
Urban Decay Glinda Palette: the cool side of Aura
Urban Decay Perversion Pencil
Inglot AMC Gel Liner in 82 (deep periwinkle blue)
Urban Decay liquid liner in Siren (any one know a dupe for this?)
Maybelline Mega Plush mascara
1. Apply primer
2. Apply Fringe to the outer V and blend out
3. Bring Chaos slightly further in than Fringe and blend
4. Blend a bit of Gonzo out just above the crease
5. Apply Freak quite heavily to the inner two thirds of the lid
6. Deepen up Fringe again where some got lost to blending
7. Blend everything out with Aura, and apply it to inner corner
8. Put a black liner in the waterline
9. And just under that apply a blue gel or pencil liner
10. Smudge Urban ontop of the blue liner and blend out
11. Apply Siren liquid liner
12. Mascara!
I thought it would be a good idea to try using Sugarpill Lumi in place of Aura as it's easier to get hold of, so I have two slightly different eyes today
Lumi is more green, Aura more blue.
And here is the whole look
Anastasia Dipbrow in Medium Brown with Inglot Duraline
Illamasqua Brow Cake in Thunder
Illamasqua clear brow gel
Illamasqua Skin Base Foundation in 03
Illamasqua Rich Liquid Foundation in 120
Ben Nye Luxury Powder in Cameo
Kat Von Shade & Light
Hourglass Dim Light and Luminous Light
The Balm Instain blush in Swiss Dot
OCC Loose Colour in Twirl (to highlight)
NYX Lip Liner in Nectar
Lunatick Cosmetics Lab Apocalipslick in Crypt Cream
I'll probably duplicate this all in a blog post.
Hope you like it!
