Look - Shimmery White and Teal Blue Eyes
Posted On: 11/20/08
Sorry about the lack of looks lately! When your face resembles something from the swamp, the last thing you want to do is prettify your eyes, only to have your face ruin the look. :( I still managed to do a few, though! But more or less, I want to wear less makeup over more to do everything I can to speed up the healing process!
You will need the following…
- Eyes: Too Faced Shadow Insurance (neutral base), Laura Mercier Tuxedo Palette (shimmery white), Silver Ring eyeshadow (silver), Shimmermoss eyeshadow (teal), Deep Truth eyeshadow (dark blue), Urban Decay Covet 24/7 Liner (teal), Dazzlelash mascara (black)
- Cheeks: Enough Said blush (soft peach)
- Lips: Strawberry Blonde lipstick (pink-coral), Tartlette lipglass (coral-pink)
- Brushes: 266 (firm, angled brush), 249 (flat, firm brush), 239 (fluffy shadow brush), 129 (dense blush brush)
- Substitutes: LM Tuxedo Palette (shimmery white) = White Frost; Enough Said = bronzer; Strawberry Blonde = Skew; Tartlette = Lychee Luxe
Directions: Define brows using a coordinating powder shadow applied with the 266 brush. Apply Too Faced Shadow Insurance all over the lid as the base with the 249. On the inner lid, apply shimmery white eyeshadow from the Tuxedo palette using the 239. Apply Silver Ring eyeshadow to the middle of the lid. Darken the outer lid using Shimmermoss eyeshadow and drag into crease using the 239. Darken crease with Deep Truth eyeshadow using the 239. Sweep the shimmery white eyeshadow underneath the brow bone to highlight. Finish with Urban Decay Covet 24/7 Liner on lower lash line, and Plushlash mascara on lashes. Sweep apples of cheeks with Enough Said blush using the 129. Apply Strawberry Blonde lipstick to lips, and then top with Tartlette lipglass for color and shine.

Nice look! Love how it highlights your eyes. The mascara looks a little clumpy though!

i feel the same way about her mascara techniques. it always appears spidery, clumpy and cakey to me. i wish she’d just use a damn lash brush to comb it out and she’d look 100% gorgeous!

I use a lash brush already! Could you recommend another one for me, since I guess this one isn’t working? When I do my makeup in front of the mirror, I don’t see any clumping… but sometimes, the close-up will show it (since the close-up is much larger than my actual eye). I’m sorry you feel I look ugly just because of the lashes though :(

You know Christine, sometimes, I actually prefer the “spidery” lash look…and you def don’t look “ugly” because of it- brush them haters off with A MAC 182 and keep doing your thang…we love you!!! This look was BEAUTIFUL!!!!

LOL, I knew a girl who liked her lashes spidery. Like super super spidery. But they almost suited her since she seemed so pleased with them!
