Recent work : Red everything.

I don't normally do anything colorful on my eye balls during the week cause I have uni to go to, by just wearing contact lenses already freaks most of the people out plus I don't have a lot of time to get ready.

So I do all that during the weekend, when I have more time. And this week I did a look with red eye shadows, the star of this look is from Sugarpill Cosmetics , called Love+ . It's a beautifully bright, pigmented smooth eye shadow.

The look itself is actually very simple, again, blending is always always the key.

I used a dark brown pencil all over the eyelids as a base color, then put the red eye shadow on top of it and in the crease,so it would turn out like a dark blood red.

After that I apply a matte dark brown shadow on both outer and inner corners of my eyes to give it more dimension. Placing a highlighting color on the middle of my eye lids to highlight.

Then just applied brow highlight and eyeliner and mascara like I normally would.For the bottom lash line I just applied the same dark matte brown shadow.

For my face, I didn't apply any blush at all cause I wanted a super contoured bronzed look, I contoured my face heavily with a matte shading powder including the nose.

And for the lips I wanted to pair the look with a nude lip, since the eyes are the star, I applied two different nude shades, a darker shade on the outer corners and a lighter shade in the middle, giving the same effect we are going for with the eyes, Dimension !

Enjoy !
