Eyes and Lips

Eyes and Lips

Equipment List...

-Mac eye shadow pallet
-Charles Fox Lipstick pallet
-Small flat brush for eyes
-Small blending brush 

Step by step

After the perfect base has been completed following the same equipment and routine from my perfect base blog.
I then worked out what type of eyes my client had, this was wide set eyes this means the most flattering look for her face would be dark on lids and then also in the outer corner.
I used a lighter colour from the mac pallet on the inner corner of the eye to give a highlight effect. I then used this all over the lid of the eyes. Next I used the darker shade in the crease and then blended this outwards to create a gradient effect. 
I then used my ted baker mascara with a disposable wand. I got my model to look straight forward and then used the wand to put the mascara onto the top of the top lashes and then got her to look slightly down and then brushed the mascara through the lashes. I then got my model to look up to make it easier to put on the bottom lashes. I also added a matt pale colour on the brow bone to give it a bit of a highlight.

To do the lips I used a small flat brush, using the palest colour from the pallet and then mixed this with some lip balm as my model had dry lips. I found this didn't go on very well because my clint had very dry lips.
Next time I might use the lip balm before I start the makeup look to give it time to soak in.
