Hi guys!
Today I have a brand new step by step tutorial to share with you! This beautiful look is a smokey eye with a pop of blue and a touch of sparkle. I really like it and I think it looks pretty awesome even if I do say so myself!
So the products you will need for this step by step are:
- MAC “Always Sunny”
- MAC “Embark”
- Kim Handmade & Natural “Midnight Blues”
- Kim Handmade & Natural “Optimize”
- Bobbi Brown Smokey Eye Mascara
- Red Cherry Lashes
- Urban Decay Electric Palette
- Eye Liner and Gel Liner
To start with I love using MAC “Always Sunny” in the crease and blend it upwards. This is so that we get a nice and warm translucent base for the transition between the blended shades. Remember to always blend well, this is so important to get a makeup look thats looking good!
The next color I used is from Kim Handmade & Natural in “Optimize”. I used this color to deepen up the crease some more and to make it more smokey. Focus in the crease and then blend it upwards but not over the shadow we just used.
Now that the crease is looking gorgeous we have to get some color on the lid! For my lid I used Kim Handmade & Natural in “Midnight Blues” and just put it all over the lid! This color is a matte blue color thats a little to dark for this look and not enough blue.
So I decided to make it pop more with the blue one from the Urban Decay Electric Palette. Then you have to blend the crease so we dont get any sharp edges. You can never blend enough!
Now you can choose to make a winged liner like I did or if you don´t want to, then you can just skip this part! You should do a simple eyeliner on the lower lid, then use MAC “Embark” to blend out the lower lash line so that you get that smokey effect going on on the lower lases too! Now your only missing some mascara and if false lashes are your thing then glue them up and get fluttering!
VOILA! Just as simple as that!
Here is the final result, I really hope you enjoy this tutorial and that you give it a try!
