Easy Grey and Black Eyes

Easy Grey and Black Eyes

I had several reasons for creating this look. I was going to a friend’s birthday party and I wanted to look like I had made an effort, but not over the top.  It was fairly casual.  I was wearing a lime green Zara top with black American Apparel high-waist nylon tricot leggings so I had to make sure my make-up didn’t clash.

I had also just bought Maybelline Color Tattoos, Soap & Glory kohl pencils and I had received a HD brows palette in the Latest in Beauty Glamour Edit box and I wanted to try them all out.  This look is quite simple:

Face

• YSL Le Teint Touche Eclat in B70 all over my face including under my eyes
• Sleek Face Contour Kit in Medium 885 – the dark in the hollows of my cheeks, sides of jawline and sides of forehead with the highlighter on my cheeks and down the middle of my forehead and nose.
• A little Seventeen Instant Glow Gold Bronze Shimmer Brick on the apples of my cheeks

Eyes

• Soap & Glory Smoulder Kohl waterproof eyeliner in Superblack on the waterline and lower lashline
• Maybelline Color Tattoo in Immortal Charcoal on the eyelids only, applied with a medium firm angled liner brush
• I blended the eye colours a little to soften the edges slightly using my No7 eyeshadow brush
• Benefit They’re Real Mascara
• Dark Brown in the HD Brows palette to define my brows

Lips

• No7 lip liner in 20 Nude all over my lips
• Lancôme Juicy Tubes in Cerise

I used these together as I wanted glossy lips that were not too orange or too pink.

Voila!
