this is my first tutorial, so sorry if it's confusing. feel free to ask any questions, and give me suggestions!
oh and by the way, some of the pics are totally washed out, so it looks like all i have is a wash of eyeshadow color on my lid, but there's a lot more than it looks like. so don't apply it that light.
you're going to need
face:
loreal true match in c1
makeup up forever full cover in 2
porcelain pink msf
eyes:
stilife paint
print eyeshadow
fuschia pigment
black tied eyeshadow
pink opal pigment
some cheapo black pencil liner
maybelline great lash in blackest black
lips:
some cheapo pinkish brown lip liner
flirt lipstick in obsess (i think this looks like a pinker ramblin' rose on me)
and instant gold lustreglass
and this is the look we're going for!
alright so first, you're going to want to start with a bare face, and put your stuff on after because the black falls on your face, and you don't want to ruin your foundation with it. if you need undereye concealor, use it now. and then put stilife paint all over your eyelid and lower eyelid. ignore the planet over my lip, im pmsing.
next you're going to grab some print eyeshadow with your 239 brush, and apply it lightly on your eyelid, blending upwards. i blend by starting out as close to the lashline as possible and moving up as more and more eyeshadow comes off the brush. you want to concentrate the color on the outer corner and lashline, but you also want it to cover the whole lid below the crease, and blend up from there (remember it's darker in person than in the picture)
after that you're going to put some fuschia pigment on your 239 brush.
cover the same area you did with print, but add a little bit more to the crease area. (darker in person)
get out your black tied, and put some on your 219 brush.
apply black tied to the lashline area
after that you're going to want to blend up and add some more to the outer corner, and blend in
get pink opal with your 239 brush, and apply it to the browbone and the edge of the eyeshadow.
blend the eyeshadow with the pink opal so there's no harsh lines.
get an angled eyeliner brush, and put black tied on the outer corner of your lower lash line.
do the same thing to the whole upper lashline, and blend it with the eyeshadow a little bit, making sure the lash line is the darkest area on your lid.
put fuschia on the middle of your lower lid
and then grab a damp tissue, and wipe up all the black under your eye. make sure the inner corner is clean.
add pink opal to the inner corner
curl your eyelashes. i actually think just curling once at the base looks better than doing a whole bunch along the whole lash, as long as it's not curled into a sharp angle.
put your mascara on. i hold the mascara wand at the base of the lashes, and then wiggle it while pulling it upward and out toward the side of my head. i apply a little bit more to the outer eyelashes. on the lower lashes, i wipe the wand over them towards the outside of the eye.
now it's time for eyeliner. this should hopeully pull the eyes together. you're going to apply it to the lower waterline heavily, and then hold it verticly in between each lash and wiggle it a little to get it between the lashes.
next apply the eyeliner to the upper waterline, and don't skip the corner area.
YAYYY YOUR EYES ARE DONE! good job. now for the foundation.....
get your foundation brush and make sure there's no blue eyeshadow on it. there normally is on mine for some reason..
weird....
anyways, apply the foundation under your eyes, on your cheeks, forhead and a little bit on your chin and down your neck.
and then blend it all together and make sure there's no streaks or anything.
next is concealor. first i like to just dot the concealor on over any redness (pimples/blemishes/scars/whatever) using my fingers.
to blend it in, i just tap over the dot with my finger until the edges dissapear. NO RUBBING!
yayy
next i like to take my trusty 187, and buff all over my face to blend anything i missed.
now brake (break?) out those lipliners, and line the whole outside of your lips
then you're going to want to blend with your finger, into the lips. after you've blended the outside, cover the whole mouth in lipliner.
put your lipstick on straight outta the tube.
blot those suckas!
wait on the lipgloss because you don't want to get it all over your hand if you accidently wipe your lips.
apply your msf with your fingers to your cheek bones, and up to your brow bone making a backwards "2" shape surrounding the eye and then jetting back up the cheek bone. yup i use my fingers. porcelain pink doesn't show up on me with a brush.
brush your eyebrows, and fill then in if you need to. i need to, but i didn't.
then wipe your whole face with a tissue (lightly!) to smooth everything together.
i don't know what happened to my lipgloss picture because i really remember taking it. anyways, put instant gold lustreglass all over your lips.
and then get dressed and take stupid looking pictures!
tell me how i did on my first tutorial!
