5-Minute Makeup: Neutrals

5-Minute Makeup:  Neutrals

Super fast neutral eye I did last week!   I have some tutorials to upload still, but unfortunately, there’s no tutorial for this look, because I really was in a major rush and didn’t have time to record it.  Sorry in advance!

Hope you’re having a fantastic weekend!

You will need the following…

For eyes, start by applying Smudgeproof as your eyeshadow base all over the eye area with the 249. Using the 239, apply Naked Lunch eyeshadow all over the lower lid.  Apply Romp eyeshadow on the outer third of the lid, then lightly blend Bronze eyeshadow in the outer crease and very outer edge of the lid with the 226. Blend Grain eyeshadow with the crease shade and highlight the brow bone . Bring everything together by applying Lucky liner on the lower lash line. Finish by sweeping lashes with Plushlash mascara.

For cheeks, apply Margin blush on the apples of the cheeks and smooth with fingertips.

For lips, apply Giulette lipstick first, and then layer Nymphette lipglass for a complementing lip.

Ahhh! I love the color of eyeliner! It totally compliments the look.

Too bad I can’t wear it though, I’ve learned the hard way that copper liners make me look like I have a disease.

I absolutely adore your Neutral/Brown looks! Totally inspired my look today! I’ve noticed you don’t use a whole lot of top liner in your eye makeup looks. Any particular reason why?

Lots of love!!

I love this look!! I really like the fact that you are featuring lots of permanent colors at the moment. It’s really useful.

Oh! A question. Is MAC Naked lunch like something that MAC recently launched in Spring Color Forecast? I thought I saw that it was a dupe for an LE product which I might have…

Hope you had a great weekend 🙂

I really love this look! I am graduating next week with my Egnglish degree and I have been thinking about what make-up to wear and I’m going to splurge and purchase a Guerlain lipstick! I love it so much on you, do you think it would still look as nice on fair cool-toned skin?

Kathryn Avatar

Oops, I also meant to ask if you have any suggestions of which shade of Guerlain lipstick would look good on fair cool-toned skin (with brown eyes and light brown hair)?
