HOW TO MAKE YOUR EYES LOOK BIGGER


Adrian Lima is one of my favorite models, This is how you can get big beautiful eyes just like hers. I've made a a couple pointers on this subject before, besides the white liner you can also make sure to do these...

1. Curl your lashes before applying your mascara.

2. You can also use individual false lashes, using individuals will give you a much more natural look. 

3. Make sure you apply mascara on your bottom lashes as well.

4. Make sure your brows are manicured, this makes a huge difference. (check out my brow tutorial on youtube.com/ladyart7)

5. Applying a highlighter on the inner corner of your eyes and right below your brow bone.

TIPS, TRICKS, BEAUTY SECRETS

You know how your summer color is a shade or two darker than your winter color, and you end up buying another shade of foundation for the winter. Well you can actually keep the same one. 

The trick is to mix a little bit of sunscreen into your foundation, you can actually lighten up your foundation color up to 2 shades. Save yourself a trip to the store and try this out.

Smokey eye tutorial

BRUSHES:
227, 224, 219, 217

PRODUCT:
CREAM BASE- BLACK ONLY @ MAC PRO STORES
EYESHADOW- CARBON, TEXTURE, ALL THAT GLITTERS (MAC)
EYELINER- BOOT BLACK, GRAPHBLACK (MAC)


First you want to use a base, you can use any cream base but make sure it is black so we can keep the eye shadow real dark. I use "black" cream base from the MAC pro store. Apply it only to the bottom half of your lid.


Then with a 227 brush pack on a black eye shadow right on top of the cream base. I used Carbon shadow from MAC.
Apply texture eye shadow on the crease of your eye with a 217 brush from MAC. Instead of looking like you packed on a bunch of black shadow this will soften the shadow and will naturally blend in with the black. You can use this even when you wear bright bold colors. In circular motion, starting from the outside corner of your eye blend in. 
Next apply all that glitters eye shadow on your brow bone with a 224 brush, softly brush from one side to the other.
with a pencil brush, i used a 219 brush from MAC. apply all that glitters shadow to the inner corner of you eyes. Use the same brush to apply Carbon right below your lower lash line.
eye liner- Wing boot black out on the top. Just follow your lash line and on the bottom use graphblack eye liner to fill in your waterline.
This will be your final look.

Bronzer Tips


1. Make sure your face is clean, dry, matte, and fresh. If your skin is oily or damp it will leave streaks and spots, making your skin look dirty.

2. With darker skin, apply the blush first. Then apply the bronzer on top. This will give you a nice glow.

3. Sun-kissed look, apply the bronzer where the sun usually hits your face. This would be your forehead, cheekbones, and the bridge of your nose.

4. Don't pack on the bronzer, especially if you have lighter skin. This will also make your skin look dirty.

How to keep your eye shadow in place.

Ever wonder why your eye shadow looks amazing in the morning and not so good in the afternoon???

PRODUCT: PAINT POTS

BRAND: M.A.C.

PRICE: $16.50

USE: Apply all over your eye lid before the eye shadow.

TEXTURE: Highly pigmented, creamy enough to work with, doesn't cake.

WHY I LIKE IT: I would definitely recommend to use this before applying your eye shadow. This will enhance the true color of your shadow and will help it from creasing throughout the day. Your eye shadow will stay fresh without having to retouch. They come in many different colors but i would suggest to get painterly, rubenesque, or bare study, you can use these as a base no matter what color shadow you are using.

Shading in your brows

This is a tutorial to show you how to get those perfect brows.

This is what you are going to need. From left to right, brow pencil, brown eye shadow, 263 angle brush, select cover up concealer, 212 flat brush.



This is how your brow may look without shading.

First you wanna shape your brows by using a brow liner. I used spiked brow liner from MAC, 

-line the bottom of your brow, however you want your brows to be shaped. 
Next, you shade in your brow using an angle brush and brown shadow to get a natural brow. If you use a pencil for the whole brow, your brow will look drawn on. 
Then you use concealer and a flat brush to clean up your shading. This will perfect the shape you are looking for. Using the flat brush clean up the bottom and top of your brows. Then blend the concealer to where you wouldn't be able to see it anymore. 
This is the final look.
