New Year's Glam

Finally I have just gotten my MAC order. I will be posting a new blog post on all of the swatches of my goodies. Today's look is called "New Years Glam" it may look fun and intricate but let me tell you this is super easy and quick to do! Let's first start today with products used and go into step by step! One last thing before we do our SBS, I did another look that took the plain golden look a step further.

Products used:
•Mac brush- 239, 219
•Mac pigment- Golden Lemon
•Mac paint pot in painterly
•Mac e/s- Blanc type
•Mac chromagraphic eye pencil in Pure White
•Mac liquidlast liner

Step 1: Using any primer apply it to your lid. Make sure you blend it in and apply it all around your eye including up to your brown bone. Pick up your 219 and go into Blanc type. Blend this shade on the brow bone and in the tear duct.

Step 2: Using a 239 brush go into the pigment in Golden Lemon. Using the cap of the pigment (the little cover with a slit on it to pick up) grab some of the pigment on your brush. In a patting motion ( up and down, up and down and move along your eye) apply this shade. You can intensify as much as you want. I only went back in the pigment twice.

Step 3: Using the Mac liquidlast liner line your eyes like normal. What I do to get this sort of cat eye look is I start from the right of the eye. I drag the brush in wards which, creates a perfect thick line. Make sure when you are pulling the brush in your line is not to close to the hair line. Then when you're done with the first step of creating the winged eye, make a small triangle in the middle of your eye. For a bigger eye look use the chromagraphic eye pencil and line your water line. I am using MAC plush lash on my lashes.




1- Patting motion is when you take your brush and tap up and down. It makes colors more vibrant rather than rubbing this shade in. Since we normally only pat light shades for the lid and pigments/glitters it is important to know this step.


Now, if that is to simple for you how about we take it a step further? Why not let's being. Start by doing step's 1 and 2 and we shall start from step 3 now!

New products:
•Mac Antiqued (crease) Mac Amber lights (Water line)

Step 3: Using mac 219 brush go into Antiqued. In a blending motion (back and forth, follow your eye shape) blend this shade in. Drag it under neath your water line, leave space for the next shade called Amber Lights. For the left over space fill it in with the gold.
