I was inspired by Eesha From MakeupByEesha and by Starryskies214 from the Beautiful Life Of A Girl Next Door to do a Pink makeup look in honor of October being the breast cancer awareness month.I wanted to go all out and do a dramatic cat liner and super pink And Super shimmery and Its been a while since i did a tutorial,so i thought i might as well do it now.(Please excuse the quality of the pictures-my cam has been borrowed by my cousin and these pics were taken on an Iphone 4 in the cloudy weather)
Products Used:
Coastal Scents 88 Original Palette(Numbered Colors)
Mineralogie Ultimate Creamy Concealer in shade U3
Maybelline Emerald Isle Quad(Lightest Shade-Marked as Hilite in IInd Pic)
Buorjois Smoky Eye Trio In Rose Vintage(Shade 2 Only)
Eyetex Dazzler Liquid Liner
KKCenterHK lashes-MI53B
Maybelline Colossol Volum' Express Mascara in Black
Now... Onto The Tutorial...!!
First apply a good base/creamy concealer/primer all over the lid and pat it in.I used Mineralogie Ultimate Creamy concealer.
Next Pat on a milky pink eyeshadow all over the lid and almost up into the crease.I used the color marked '1' from the CS palette.
Next,taking a brighter shade of pink,go into the crease area with a precise brush,mark out the eyesocket.No need to blend now,just create the basic almond like shape.(Color used is marked '2' in CS palette)
Now take a more subdued and a shade darker of pink and blend it out using a fluffy blending brush.
Next up,take a shimmery white shade and add highlight to the inner corner and under the browbone(Used the ligtest shade from Emerald Isle Quad).Also taking a frosted rose eyeshadow(From Burjois Rose Vintage Smoky Eyes Trio),pat a little of it at the middle of your lid to give it some more depth.
The next step is to line your eyes,i used a basic cheap black liquid liner and i lined the top and bottom lashline rather thickly and in a constructed manner,making sure to create a pointy tip at the inner and outer corner of the eyes.
Finally,i applied my Maybelline colossol volum mascara and added the Middle Cross Lashes from KKCenterHk.
And the look is DONE!!
At this moment,i want to remind everyone of you ladies to do self exams and to try and get educated as much as we can by reading up and even if we can't completely prevent it,try and lower the risks and be careful enough to diagnose yourself earlier on so that we wont have to lose more Ladies to it.
