'Velvet Coral' Look

'Velvet Coral' Look

This look was created using a simple technique to get the cut-crease effect. It's really easy compared to other techniques I have seen and it takes a lot less time to achieve. I'll do a tutorial of the technique so you see what I mean.

Eyes:

PRIME:
I started off with NARS Smudge Proof Eyeshadow Base all over my lid up to the brow bone. I also applied MAC Layin' Low Paintpot (matte creamy beige) all over my lid up to my brow bone as my primary base.

COLOR:
To start off the look I used MAC Velvet moss Eyeshadow (matte moss green) in the crease.
I added a bit of MAC Bottle Green Eyeshadow (matte dark moss green) to the outer V to deepen.
I used MUFE #9 Aqua Cream (light coral) to shape the lid and define the crease beneath the green colors.
On the inner lid and tear duct I applied MAC Blanc Type Eyeshadow (matte ivory).
Next the middle of the lid I applied MAC Dusty Coral Pigment (matte coral).
On the outer lid I applied MAC Hot Hot Hot Eyeshadow (matte red coral).
For the blending on the brow bone I used Smashbox Nude Eyeshadow (matte nude).
For highlight I used MAC Ricepaper Eyeshadow (shimmery champagne).

BROWS:
My brows are filled in with MAC Eyebrow Pencil in Stud.

DEFINE:
I lined my upper lashline with Stila Stay All Day Eyeliner in Black.
I lined my lower waterline with Loreal HIP Cream Eyeliner in Black.
I smudged my lower lashline with MAC Landscape Green Pigment (matte grass green).
I used Covergirl Lashblast Mascara for my lashes and added Beautee Senses Demi Pixie Lashes for effect.
 
Lips:
 
POLISH:
I used MAC Syrup Lipstick topped with MAC Spite Lipglass.
 

Face:

FINISH:
I prepped my skin with Stila One Step Primer.
I used NARS Sheer Glow Foundation in Tahoe with MUFE Full Cover Concealer in #12 under my eyes. I set with MAC Blot Powder in Dark.
I used Illamasqua Expose Blush for my cheeks.

'Raspberry Punch' Look

'Raspberry Punch' Look

So I started off this look with the Naked Cosmetics Shock Effect Pigment Stack in hand and it totally failed. I am not a fan of these pigments at all...they are borderline useless to me. Let me know if you guys want a full blown review on these because I don't want to just bash the products and hear myself complain.

Anyhow onto the look which I had to resuscitate with Inglot eyeshadows....after I chucked the Naked Pigments out of my way.


Eyes:

PRIME:
I started off with NARS Smudge Proof Eyeshadow Base all over my lid up to the brow bone. I also applied MAC Layin' Low Paintpot (matte creamy beige) all over my lid up to my brow bone as my primary base.

COLOR:
On the inner lid I applied MAC Blanc Type Eyeshadow (matte ivory).
Next the middle of the lid I applied Inglot #362 Eyeshadow (matte raspberry pink).
On the outer lid I applied Inglot #371 Eyeshadow (matte vivid blue).
For the crease I used Inglot #388 Eyeshadow (matte purple).
On the brow bone and for the blending I used Smashbox Nude Eyeshadow (matte nude).
For highlight I used MAC Vanilla Eyeshadow (matte ivory).

My brows are filled in with MAC Eyebrow Pencil in Stud.
