Sugar Spice and Everything Nice

This was a extremely fun look to do and reminds me of sugar (the pinks and reds) and spice (the blue blended into the pink and red.) So shall we get started?

Products used:
•Mac paint pot in painterly
•Mac brush- 239,217, 212
•L'Oreal Runway pallet limited edition in "Charming Cockatoo"
•Mac e/s- orange, Copper, Carbon
•NYX e/s- Frosted Ocean

Step 1: Using a ring finger blend in your primer. I am using Mac Paint Pot in Painterly.

Step 2: Pick up your 239 brush and go into the first shade of the Charming Cockatoo pallet. It should be a light coral hued pink. In a patting motion which is up and down apply this color.

Step 3: Using a 217 go into Mac's Orange. In a window shield motion (back and forth) blend this color into the pink. Make sure to not pick up a lot of the color because it will look more orange hued than red. Now go into the shade copper. Take the littlest amount of the shade and make sure to blend this into the orange.

Step 4: Using the same brush go into NYX Frosted Ocean. In a back and forth motion blend this color in as the inner V. It will help add more depth to this look. The reason I opted in for a blue/black instead of a brick red is because I felt it added a nice contrast between the colors.

Step 5: I used a 212 brush and wet it with water then I dipped it into the eyeshadow called Carbon. Then I lined like normally a straight medium thick line. After all of that I applied mascara!

Soft and Gorgeous

This look is very soft looking and at the same time very elegant. It can be done during the holidays since it is so subtle looking, well subtle looking without the extreme eyeliner! So how to we do this look and what do we need?

Products:
•Mac paint pot in Painterly (base)
•Mac e/s in Star violet (lid), Brun (inner "V"), Wedge (crease), Carbon ( lower lash line)
•Mac brush- 239,217,212
•NYC unnamed eyeliner in Pearl Black
• L'Oreal million lashes in black

Step 1: Apply primer with your ring finger and blend all around the eye. I chose Mac paint pot in painterly

Step 2: Pick up your 239 brush and pat on the shade Star Violet. The patting motion is done by literally patting on your eyelid up and down.

Step 3: Take your 217 brush and go into the shade Wedge. Blend this shade in, then deepen the crease by applying the shade Brun. This should all blend in fine if you use a window shield motion!

Step 4: Pick up your eyeliner and line like you would normally. Then extend the liner so it should look like a cat eye. In the tear duct connect both sides and make a triangle of some sort. What I mean by "connecting both sides is connect the lower lash liner and the upper lash line together. Then I took a 212 and lined my lower lash line to make my look more fluent.

Smokey eye, Holiday look III

This is a smokey eye but I am marking it as a holiday look because it fits. The reason I feel it fits is because the warm brown reminds me of a frosty cold Christmas. Most people are probably not going to do a extravagant red and green makeup look, they will more than likely opt in for a smokey eye. Today we are going to go right to the products because I did a different sort of eyeliner look and I would like to explain it.

Products:
•Victoria Secret "Hey Bombshell" pallet. From the left first color, and the second to last shade in the same row it should be a purple. The last eye shadow row on the right, the last shade it should be a dark brown. The 4th row contains blacks, I went into the matte shade of black the second to last shade.
•Mac paint pot in painterly
•Mac brush- 239,217,231
•Mac e/s- Carbon ( used to line the lower lash)
•NYC unnamed liner in "Pearl Black" can be found at a drugstore!

Step 1: Apply primer with your ring finger and blend all around the eye. I chose Mac paint pot in Painterly.

Step 2: Pick up your 239 brush and go into the first color in the farthest left shade. It should be a pink, then in a patting motion apply this shade. using the same brush go into the second to last shade in the same row, it should be a purple. Right on top of the pink pat this on.

Step 3: Pick up your 217 brush and go into the last eye shadow to the farthest right it should be a dark brown with some bronze to it. In a window shield motion blend this color in. To deepen the crease we will go into the 4th row, it contains blacks. Go into the matte black and blend this into the inner V of the eye.


So far it should look like this!

The lid contains a pink shade with purple on top, brown in the crease and a black shade that deepens the crease. We also applied a highlight, this is optional but I recommend it! If you are going to go into a highlight chose something close to your skin tone or something light.

Now for the last step we have to apply eyeliner. Line your eye like normally then create a triangle at the corner of your eye also called the tear duct. Using a flat brush blend in a black eye shadow on the lash line so the "Triangle" does not look odd. Using a 231 Mac brush I blended the black out and I applied it to my waterline. Good luck :D!

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.

2- Window shield motion is when you blend. It is blending back and forth, think of a car when it is raining. It is the process of "smoking" a shade into your crease. This can be done in circular motions as well. Just get into your own ways of blending.
