Platinum Ice Look

[tthelwell]

'Platinum Ice' Look​

For this look, I went for a defined crease. I also 'foiled' Platinum Pigment on the lid but of course the pigment smudged onto the crease and messed up the sharp crease. Oh well...I still wanted to share...

Eyes:

PRIME:
I started off with Urban Decay Primer Potion all over my lid up to the brow bone. Then I applied MAC Painterly Paintpot as a base all over my lid up into the crease.

COLOR:
I defined the crease with NARS China Blue Eyeshadow (matte navy).
To blend out the crease line and add to the gradient effect I used MAC Marine Ultra Pigment (matte bright navy).
On the brow-bone I applied Illamasqua Anja Eyeshadow (matte sky blue) to further diffuse the blue gradient.
Above that, I applied MAC Blanc Type Eyeshadow(matte ivory).
Next on the entire lid I foiled MAC Platinum Pigment(metallic platinum).
On the lower lashline I used the NARS China Blue Eyeshadow and Illamasqua Anja Eyeshadow.

BROWS:
My brows are filled in with MAC Eyebrow Pencil in Spiked and MAC Showstopper Eyeshadow.

DEFINE:
I lined my upper lashline with Wet 'n' Wild Cream Eyeliner in black.I used MAC Plushlash Mascara for my lashes and applied Beautee Sense Erotica Eyelashes.

Face:

LIPS:
MAC Victorian Lipstick and MAC Lustreglass in Ensign.

FINISH:
I used NARS Sheer Glow Foundation in Tahoe with MAC Select Cover-Up Concealer in NC45 under my eyes. I set with MAC Loose Blot Powder in Dark. No blush (forgot).

More pics and looks on blog...I don't get to post here as much...but I post on my blog (almost everyday)

...sorry for the shameless plus...which I put at the bottom in case anyone got annoyed...

Thanks sweets! Yep! I love this pigment too...actually all the metal pigments...they r almost like molten metal.
For the crease I use a small angled brush to draw in the guideline and then I use a very small smudge brush along that line and pray that my hands don't shake too much

It takes pratice like u wudn't believe.
