So today, I have for you a darker look, with allot of blue. I have to say, that I used to shy away from blue before. Don't ask me why, I just did...felt as if it won't suit me too well. But blue, all kind of deep blues, work great on brown eyes. Not that it won't work on other colors!
I used only 3 colors and one highlight. The highlight was actually a cream one and I used it even as a base for the eye and as a highlighter for my cheeks and lip bow.
- first color: dark electric blue -> entire lid (build the color on, make it vibrant!);
- second color: jade green -> use it to blend the blue in the crease and bring it up and also in the outer corner;
- third color: lime green -> put a line and use it as to light up the inner corner, but blend it in the rest of the colors;
- highlight: you can reapply it now, if you want to enhance it, under the eyebrow.
For my face, I used a bronzer and a light dusty rose blush.
On my lips, I used a technique I usually use in summer. I like lips to seem as if i just ate raspberrys or sour cherrys and the shine of the juice is still on. To do this, I dab my finger on the lipstick and smudge it on my lips (keep it in the natural line, don't make yourself look like a clown *laughs*). I glaze on some lip shine or lip gloss, and that's it. It's not that hard, and you don't even need a mirror, or even a lip shine, if you don't like it during the summer. It's a nice way to make you look fresh, but with no over done lips.
I hope you enjoy it and have fun doing it. The fundamental key is to blend, blend and blend some more! Use some powder, or do your face after you do you do your eyes, because there can be some fallout and it can be hard to take out, since the color is dark and might stain.
What I used:
For the face: *Farmasi, stick foundation, no. 7;
* Alverde, cream concealer, shade Sand;
* Alverde Mineral Camouflage Powder, shade Sand;
* Miss Sporty, Bronzing Powder, shade Sun Kissed;
* Sephora Pallet, 5 in 1, light dusty rose blush.
For the eyes: * Avon, Jillian Dempsey line for the eyes, shade Ocean Sky Trio (for the highlighter, use the cream white);
* Sephora Pallet, 5 in 1, the blue and green one.
For lips: * Rimmel London, Lasting finish lipstick, shade Rich Raisin;
* Sephora, Brillant a levres, shade red velvet.
Take care guys!
Kissu
