As the season is changing most of us are probably heading to our favorite cosmetic counters for the latest colors of this season. Whether you are more into lip products or eye products you must have noticed the drastic change from pastels and lights to the dark browns and berry shades.
I thought it would make a good start to show you my favorite look to wear this season... (btw ...the video is up on youtube for you to see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6WnlBK8o_yk )
I had the Clarins 'Spicy' Eye quad for a while now but was not sure how to pull off the burgundy and bronzy-gold eye shadow to make it wearable in the summer. As the season changed I started wearing it alot and its great for everyday if you like dramatic eyes ...and also suitable for those nights out!
Ok enough talking ...
Firstly I moisturised my face, then I applied my Inglot under Makeup base, My Foundation and a powder to set it all.
I then moved on to the eyes and primed them with my Gosh velvet-touch eyeprimer ,you can use any primer of your choice or skip it all together.Next I applied a white base to make the shadows stay put and really pop, for that I used Rimmel 8hr colour mousse in 'snow queen' (Its a very shimmery mousse for a more subtle look use a matt white eg. NYX jumbo pencil in milk.)
I let the base dry for a few seconds and then i proceeded and applied the bronzy-gold eyeshadow to the lid, leaving out the inner corner.Blend the edges.
To define the eyes I applied the burgundy/brown shadow to the crease and outer corner. In the pictures I added the browner shade in the pallet over the burgundy to make it less 'red' and more wearable.
To pull everything together i added Inglot eyeshadow in AMC shine 30 to the brow bone and tear dot to add some highlight, then using a small brush i applied Inglot eyeshadow AMC shine 42 to my lower lash line. Blend the edges.
Blend.Mascara.Done!
For the rest of my face I used suede blush by sleek (nude collection), bourjois chocolate bronzer and on my lips I used Maybelline's luminous beige .
Take Care.x
