Would You Like A Plum

 This look is really beautiful! But the funny thing is all I used was 3 shades and 3 brushes! Below is step by step and a picture.

 Products used:
•Mac 217,239,231
•NYX pigment in BABY PINK
•Mac e/s in GESSO
•Maybelline eye studio pallet in Amethyst Ablazed
•Mac Paint pot in painterly

Step 1: Apply primer all over your eyelid using your ring finger. Blend the primer up to the brow bone.

Step 2: Grab your 239 and mac eye shadow in GESSO. In the corner of your eye apply the vivid white then apply it on the eyelid. With that same brush go into the pigment. You can use your brush wet or dry when applying. I used my brush dry and patted the shade on top of the white still leaving space for the white in the tear duct area.

Step 3: Take your 217 and go into the Maybelline eye studio in Amethyst Ablaze. There are 5 colors the one we will be using today is the second one to the right. Take your 217 and grab as much of the purple as you can. A trick I use to make colors vivid is to go around in a circle in the eye shadow pan about 5 times. Then in a back and forth motion blend in the purple. You will see very fast you will get pigment! When you are blending make sure to blend into the pink but very lightly. When you are done blending apply the purple shade under the waterline to create a "fan" effect.

Step 4: Apply eyeliner in a slim cat eye and apply mascara!

Soft and Fluffy

  This look is very simple yet chic! Below are the steps and the products you will need in order to complete "Soft and Fluffy"

                       

What you will need

•Mac 217,239,231
•Mac e/s in - Gesso, Hep cat, Sketch
•NYC liner
•Wet n wild mega sparkle in WHITE
•PRIMER ( Mac paint pot in painterly)

Step 1: Apply a primer to your eyelids. I use my ring finger to blend in Mac's paint pot in painterly. The reason we will need primer is because we really want the shades to "pop" and be more vibrant. Once you have blended the primer all the way up to your eyebrow you can proceed to step 2.

Step 2: Grab your 239 and matte white eye shadow. For this step I used MAC Gesso and used patting motion which is just patting the color on. You will have to keep doing this step until the color white is vibrant like in the picture. Once you have put the white on the eye lid you are going to gently sweep the brow bone with the same shade for some highlight. You are also going to do the same with the inner corner!

Step 3: Now we will start blending! Grab your 217 brush and Hep cat e/s. In windshield motion blend the color in. Windshield motion is back and forth slowly until the color is blended, if you have to go back and get more color don't be afraid the more the better! Go into Sketch now and blend it into the shade hep cap. I normally just blend on the top of the 1st color to add more depth.

Step 4: Take your 231 and dip it into Wet n Wild's mega sparkle in White. In patting motion apply the glitter.

Step 5: Apply eyeliner in a cat eye look then apply mascara.

Smokey Purples

   Hey guys so today I was in the mood to do a purple mist look! I was doing a cut crease but then it turned into a smokey eye!



Items used

•Mac brushes 239,231,217
•Mac e/s Sketch, Satellite dreams,Gesso, Hep cat
•Mac fluid line
•NYX jumbo eye pencil in "MILK"
•Wet N wild Mega Sparkle in WHITE


   This look is really simple and fun to complete. First take a primer that has white in it, it will make the white more vivid I chose NYX jumbo eye pencil in milk. With your ring finger apply the primer all over your lid up to your eyebrow. Next pick up your 239 brush and dip it into Mac Gesso. Keep applying the white until it is vibrant like in the picture above. Next take your 217 and go into Sketch. Since this color is so deep and rich you really want to keep it that way so blend the color like it is a cut crease. The way to do that is buy only blending in the windshield motion on the crease. You do not blend it into the lid area which is the white color. Once you have blended in the rich purple we want to make this look more brighter so I went into Satellite Dreams with the same brush. On top of the burgundy all you have to do is blend the lighter purple on top. You do not need to blend it into anything else. Last but not least go into a 231 brush and using the Wet n Wild mega sparkle confetti dip your brush into the glitter and tap it on your eyelid. The last step is to line your eyes and apply mascara! If you complete this look please post pictures!

Orange and White!


So today I did a orange and white look ! This was fun to create .

The products I used were

-Mac paint pot in Painterly
- Mac eye shadow in Orange
-Mac eye shadow in Gesso
-Maybelline one by one mascara
-Mac 231 ( brush)
-Mac 212 (brush)

 First with a ring finger apply Mac Paint Pot in Painterly all over the lid as a base . Next grab your 231 or a small brush . Dip your brush into Mac Orange eye shadow and apply it to the corner of your eye and the crease . Do not drag the color all the way up in the crease thought! Next leave space in the middle to apply Mac Gesso . Blend the white into the orange by moving the brush back and forth . Whatever was done to your top lid should transfer to the bottom! Now take a black mascara like Maybelline one by one and wiggle the brush up from the lash line . Line your lids with a black liner .  Good luck!
