Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Base primer
  • purple eyeshadow
  • Black eyeshadow
  • highlight eyeshadow(rice paper in MAC)
  • Black Eyeliner
  • Smodge brush
  • Black Mascara
  1. Step 1

    Apply base primer all over your eye lids as well as your lower eyes line. This well help for your eyeshadow to last longer and bring out the colour pigment of your eyeshadow.

  2. Step 2

    Then you want to apply the purple eyeshadow like half way into your upper and lower eye lids leaving the outer corner. Apply the black eyeshadow at the outer corner of upper eye lids blending it into the crease this will give you that two dimensional effect of both eyeshadow. Take your highlighter eyeshadow (rice paper) and apply it to your brow bone blending it downward and into the inner part of your eyes.

  3. Step 3

    You now want to take your eyeliner and make a line across from your inner eye to the outer part. The same is done for the lower eye line. Using your smodge brush you want to smodge in the eyeliner,repeat the same steps for the lower eye line. Then comes last but, not the lease black MASCARA(any brand that works for you is fine). Take your lashes to the sky going side ways to open those eyes.

Tips & Warnings
  • Be careful when smodging you don't want to poke yourself in the eye.
  • If the eyes seems too dark after applying purple and black eyeshadow use a little bit of highlighter right into the eye lids to reduce that dark effect.
