So I have gotten a fair few messages asking me how I did this look so I will just quickly write a tutorial. Firstly I did the basic’s like prime my skin and then apply foundation(usually I do eyes first but because i hardly use eyeshadow i decided to do foundation first) So next i started with just putting a nutral/vanilla shadow all over my eyelid blending it out as I get to my eyebrow using a “Blending” brush. Next I used a “Socket Dome brush” and lightly shadowed my socket eye in the corner just to contour my eye since im not using any other shadow on my eyes. So now i start with my liquid eyeliner i don’t actually use a normal makeup brush i bought a “000 paintbrush” its about $5 and is amazingly fine. So i start in the middle of my eye because thats where most of my product is going to be and then follow my eye BUT NOT ALL THE WAY TO THE END, i flick it out about 3-4 mm before i hit the corner of my eye and then i do my tearduck to the middle of my eye. Aplly mascarra and blush and then i colour in my eyebrows with a pencil and then a powder to lock the pencil in. sorry it was all hard to explain but i promise to do a picture tutorial :)
