This is my first tutorial ever, so I hope it's helpful =)

What I used:

FACE:
Moisturizer
Studio Fix Fluid
Studio Fix
Blot Powder

LIPS:
Chapstick

EYES:

Bare Canvas Paint
Blacktrack Fluidline
Black Eyeshadow
Chrome Yellow e/s
Overgrown e/s
Aquadistic e/s
Pompous blue e/s
Teal Pigment
Mascara

MISC:
A giant poofy brush
An eyeliner brush
Eyeshadow brushes
A babywipe
Two q-tips

Alright, so here come the pictures.

Start with a clean, terrifying, moisturized face. Preferably with your hair tied up.

Apply your favorite lipbalm.

I use:

Take a tiny amount of Bare Canvas Paint. Like this much for both lids:
IMG_0192.jpg

I squeeze that amount onto one finger and take the index finger of my other hand. Then I tap the two fingers together until they hold equal amounts of the paint. This way, I know both of my eyes are equal.
Apply all over from lash to brow.
IMG_0193.jpg

It really shouldn't look any different.
IMG_0195.jpg


Take an eyeliner brush, I used MAC's 209 brush, and dip it liberally into Blacktrack Fluidline. Apply a thick line to your lid, getting as close to the lashes as possible. It doesn't have to be perfect.

IMG_0201.jpg


Then make a wing at the end of the line, like so.
IMG_0202.jpg

IMG_0203.jpg

Starting from the inner corner of the eye, draw a rounded line (I follow my eye...bone... thing) and connect with the tip of the wing. This is the step where if there were suddenly a fire and you had to run outside, you'd want to hide your face from helping neighbors.
You will look stupid.

IMG_0208.jpg


Put some more fluidline on your 209 and apply a thick line to your lower lashline. Clean it up with a q-tip if necessary.

Dip an eyeshadow brush into some black powder. Make sure it really shows up. I use a black eyeshadow from NYX that broke during shipping, so I use it as a loose powder. ^_^
IMG_0212.jpg

Fill in the area between the line you just drew and your lashline. I typically go a little bit above. Do not blend it upward (or at all for that matter.) Also, go over the lower line with black shadow to darken it.
IMG_0213.jpg

Here's what it should look like when you're through.
IMG_0214.jpg

IMG_0215.jpg


Use the babywipe to clean up any fallout.
IMG_0216.jpg

Use a q-tip dipped in lotion to straighten up the bottom line.
IMG_0217.jpg

IMG_0218.jpg


You will be left with something that looks like this.
IMG_0219.jpg


Time for Colooorr!! Huzzah!

Dip an eyeshadow brush in some Chrome Yellow E/S.
IMG_0221.jpg
IMG_0222.jpg

Apply the Chrome Yellow above the black, at the inner corner. Blend it so it fades about a third of the way.
IMG_0225.jpg
IMG_0226.jpg
IMG_0228.jpg


Next dip an eyeshadow brush in some Overgrown E/S.
IMG_0229.jpg
IMG_0232.jpg

Apply it next to the Chrome Yellow, blending it into the yellow and fading it to the end of the black.
IMG_0234.jpg

IMG_0235.jpg


Dip an eyeshadow brush in some Aquadistic E/S.
IMG_0239.jpg
IMG_0243.jpg

Apply the Aquadistic from where the Overgrown starts, fading toward the end of the black. Blend the Aquadistic into the Chrome Yellow.
IMG_0244.jpg

IMG_0245.jpg
IMG_0246.jpg


Next take Pompous Blue E/S (my favorite!).
IMG_0248.jpg
IMG_0251.jpg

This time start at the outer corner of the eye, at the end of the black.
IMG_0252.jpg

Place the Pompous Blue like such:
IMG_0253.jpg

Blend toward the Overgrown/Aquadistic blend.
IMG_0254.jpg

Drag some down to the lower line.
IMG_0257.jpg


And you get this:
IMG_0261.jpg


Reapply some black to redarken it.
IMG_0262.jpg

IMG_0263.jpg


Take some Teal Pigment. Apply a small amount over the Pompous Blue on the "side." It won't make a HUGE difference, but adds a bit of shimmer.
IMG_0266.jpg

IMG_0268.jpg


Then take a dry, clean brush and go over the colors a couple of times to blend them throughout.
IMG_0269.jpg
IMG_0270.jpg


Now for the face.

Start with Studio Fix Fluid. I use it in NC25.
IMG_0273.jpg

Dab it wherever you need it (I need it all over). I do use my fingers, but I make sure to wash my hands thoroughly before doing so.
IMG_0275.jpg

Use a brush to even it all out.
IMG_0276.jpg

I use a smaller brush for my forehead so I don't mess with my eyemakeup.
IMG_0278.jpg


Dip a giant poofy brush in some Studio Fix. I use it in C30.
IMG_0279.jpg

I use this amount for each of four sections I separate my face: One cheek, the other cheek, my forehead, and my nose/between my eyebrows.
IMG_0281.jpg

IMG_0282.jpg


Then you get:
IMG_0283.jpg


Next, take some Blot Powder. I use it in Medium.
IMG_0284.jpg
IMG_0285.jpg

I use the same amount for each of four sections (like with the studio fix)
IMG_0286.jpg


I use the babywipe from earlier to gently wipe off my eyebrows. Any foundation that has settled in them will give them a greyish appearance.
IMG_0290.jpg

IMG_0291.jpg


Reapply chapstick.

Then I put on mascara.
IMG_0294.jpg


Here are a few completed eyeshots.

WOW! That is really amazing and you did a fabulous job on your tutorial. I may try this look, but am afraid I'm a tad bit old:/

Thanks everybody for all of your kind comments =)

And for those of you saying you're too old, I'm sure you're not ^_^ I wear this as an everyday look, which some might think is too extreme, but whenever I have something "professional" to attend like a job interview I tone it down a lot.

Thanks again =D

I like this, I think I'm going to try it but substitute different colors for the blue, green, and yellow. (I have green eyes, so I'm not very well suited for blue)

Aah! I really love this Tut! loved all the million pics, too. lol Some tut's are a little vague with the pics.

it's a fun look, I probably never would have tried...UNTIL TONIGHT!

I'm going to post my "ATTEMPT" (put that in caps, cuz that is merely all it was, an attempt lol.) in the FOTD'S section, right now.

Thanks Again. Buh-bye.
