Glamorous Smoky Eye

Glamorous Smoky Eyes For a Night on The Town

 Elegant & Simply Iconic
Now I know this look have been going viral for months, if not the past year. It's simple, it's eye catching and who doesn't love a bit of glitter?

Steps:
1. Start by using an eye shadow primer (glue to your makeup)
2. Choose a neutral shade for a base eye shadow and apply all over using a medium eye-shadow brush
3. Next, choose a crease/corner eye shadow 2-3 tones deeper than the base 
4. Using an angled eye shadow brush, lightly apply to corners of the eye, using soft circular motions into the crease. Continue this until desired shadow effect is attained. 
(Remember to start off light and build your color intensity, its easy to go light to dark but not dark to light. Also the stiffer the brush the darker the application. The softer the brush the lighter the application) 
5. Now since you have attained most of your smoky eye, you want to add your glitter for a glamorous finish. Using Urban decay moondust eye shadow or any glitter of your choice. Using a stiff concealer brush apply glitter in a patting-slide motion for a more intense-popping effect.
6. Lastly complete look by adding a defined liner, or a winged liner for a bold finish. Coat lashes with mascara of your choice! 

Products Used:
Eye shadow- bareMinerals READY™ 8.0 Power Neutrals ($50)
Glitter- Urban Decay Moondust Eye shadow- "Space Cowboy" ($24)
Liquid Eyeliner- Stila Stay All Day Long wear liquid eye liner ($26)
Mascara- Immortal Lash 24 Hour Mascara ($25)

Iconic Double Winged Liner

Bold & Fearless


Ever seen those girls strutting those glamorous winged liners and wondered how they kept such a steady hand? Or have you ever wondered how they got the look to begin with? 
Well thanks to your fellow trend setter and personal makeup artist, I have brought you an Iconic Double Winged Liner look that is simple & a complete show stopper!

Steps:
1. First start by choosing a desired color of eyeliner for your bottom lash line.
2. Once you have decided on your pop of "show stopping" color, begin by lining your lower lash line, slightly extending towards your brow bone.  (don't worry about precision at this point) 
3. Once you have completed lining your lower lash line, you want to seal the color for an all-day stay. To attain this you must set the liner with a powdered eye shadow using an angled liner brush of your choice. ( at this point the angled liner brush will correct & define your line for pure precision) 
4. Now that you have completed the most difficult part of the look, repeat step 2 & 3 for lash line above and complete look using your favorite mascara!!

For more advanced artists, you may like to go a step further and add your concealer under the eye area for a brighter more awake appearance, also under the brow for a more defined look!

Lower Lash- Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil "Chaos" ($24)
