'Color Block' Look

'Color Block' Look

For this look I was inspired by Katy Perry's cover photo for Elle Magazine featuring the new fashion trend - color blocking. It's a great Spring trend using contrasting brights colors together. I thought I would try it out with makeup instead.

The Inspiration

Eyes:

PRIME:
I started off with Too Faced Shadow Insurance all over my lid up to the brow bone. I applied MAC Layin' Low Paintpot (creamy beige) all over my lid and slightly into the crease as my primary base. Sonia Kaskuk Large Crease Brush

COLOR:
For the entire lid I used Magnolia Makeup Garden District Pigment (matte grass green). MAC 239 Eye Shader Brush
On the outer lid and into the crease I applied MUFE #92 Eyeshadow (matte brilliant purple). Sonia Kaskuk Large Crease Brush
On the browbone area for blending and highlight I used Magnolia Makeup Buff Pigment (matte light beige). Sonia Kaskuk Large Crease Brush
For my lower lashline I used Bourjois Metallic Eyeliner in Blue Clinquant (shimmery bright blue).

BROWS:
My brows are filled in with MAC Eyebrow Pencil in Stud and NARS Coconut Grove Eyeshadow (matte blackened brown). Paula Dorf Eye Definer Flat Top Brush

DEFINE:
I lined my upper lashline with MUFE #4 Metal Powder using MUFE Eye Seal. Tarte Eye Liner Brush
I lined my lower waterline with L'Oreal HIP Cream Eyeliner in Black. Sigma Eye Liner - E05 Brush
I used MAC PlushLash Mascara for my lashes and added Beautee Sense Style 213 Eyelashes for effect.

Lips:
POLISH:
For my lips I used MAC Petals & Peacocks Lipstick (raspberry pink) topped with MAC True Babe Lipglass (creamy bright pink).

Face:
FINISH:
I primed my skin with MAC Oil Control Lotion. I used Maybelline Fit Me Foundation in #350 Caramel - Sigma Flat Top Synthetic Kabuki Brush - for my face and set my t-zone with MAC Mineralize Skinfinish Natural in Medium Dark - Sigma Round Top Synthetic Kabuki Brush.

I used MAC Overdyed Blush (satin bright raspberry pink) for my cheeks - MAC 129 Powder/Blush Brush and MUFE #1 Sculpting Kit for contour - Sigma Angled Top Synthetic Kabuki Brush.
