Time seems to just run away from me
these days. It might be because in
exactly 1 month I will be 27 years old and that seems to be the age all the
cool kids die at. RIP Muffins. Just kidding, I’m not a cool kid. I’ve never been a cool kid. In fact, I spent my entire schooling career
on the social platform I refer to as “the bottom of the food chain”. My little person thinks I’m cool as anyway,
so there.
Since I significantly digressed in my
introduction (I meant to talk about how I just lost track of time last week and
didn’t have a chance to post), I’ll just get right to the point. Also, before anyone says it, I desperately need an appointment for an eyebrow wax. I know it, you know it, let's just move on with our lives.
As promised, this is the step-by-step
tutorial for my favourite look from the Makeup Revolution “Fortune Favours the
Brave” palette. If you want some more
information on this palette, you can check it out in my previous post (http://justcallmemuffins.blogspot.co.za/2017/06/fortune-favours-brave-palette-review.html).
This look is a very soft, smoky eye
look with a flash of pale pink light on the eye lid. I am desperately in love with the shade “Pink
Diamond” from the palette. It was
glittery but that appeared to be just the top layer. I still love it though, because it has an
intense shimmer that can be further intensified by a spritz of Fix+ on your
brush.
Step One:
I used the shade “Latte” as my
transition shade. It’s a soft, neutral
brown that works perfectly with a warm or cool toned look. I worked this right across my crease and
below my lower lash line.
Step Two:
I intensified the crease with the
shade “Caffeine Fix”, a deep chocolate brown.
I also blended this into my lower lash line, but only up to about half
way to my pupil.
Step Three:
Drama Queen: how appropriate. I used a smudging brush to work this around
my outer V and slightly into my crease.
Then I used the same blending brush with the other shades on and blended
it out. I extended this colour out of my
V to create a cat-eye look too.
Step Four:
I spritzed a flat eyeshadow brush with
some Fix+ and packed “Pink Diamond” all over my lids. Using the same blending brush once again when
the colour had dried down, I blended out the edges into my crease and blended “Drama
Queen” into it from my outer V.
Step Five:
Lastly, I dabbed “Ice Cloud” on to
brighten up my inner corners.
Winged liner. Check.
Lashes. Check.
Magic.
Double check.
The Final Look
Thank you so much for coming back and
for being so patient with me!
Wishing you all the love and light in
the universe, until next time! ♡♡♡
