Tutorial: Day to Night Make up Look

I am back! I am so happy that I have already finished my workshop at The Makeup Artistry. I attended Basic Make up and Advanced Make up lessons. It was awesome and fun since I was joined by my two lovely friends from the Hotel Industry.

I am so inspired to share with my Day to Night office make up. I have used my Naked Palette 2 in this look, you can go ahead and substitute the colors and just follow the shades of eyeshadow if you do not have Naked Palette 2.

In this tutorial, I have my foundation, did my contouring and highlighting as well as my brows. Alright, let us get this started.

1. Always, prime your eyelids. There are many options for this, if you are on a budget, ELF cosmetics has a great eyelid primer. For this tutorial, I used MAC Painterly Paint Pot. Remember, never skip this part especially if you have oily eyelids. This will make your eyeshadow last longer and will make the color pop.

2. Using a flat eyeshadow brush, pat all over the lids Foxy. This is a matte whitish shade. This will be your base color.

3. Once blended, using a fluffy eyeshadow brush, sweep in a windshield motion Chopper or a shimmery copper shade in the outer corner of the eyes.

4. To highlight the eye make up, use Bootycall or any shimmery white eyeshadow, highlight your brow bone and inner tear ducts.

Tadaah, the finished day look! 

** Line your eyes thinly with dark brown eyeliner, curl your lashes and apply mascara.

5. To achieve the night out look, using a small dome brush, sweep in the outer V  of your eyes, Busted or any darl copper eyeshadow. Blend it well and create a "wing-like" motion.

6. Using a small flat eyeshadow brush, sweep and highlight your inner tear duct using Half Baked or any shimmery gold eyeshadow and extend it to the inner 1/4 of your lower lash line.

7.. Using Pistol or any dark taupe shimmery shadow, pat it in the outer 3/4 of your lower lash line. Make sure to blend and connect it with the winged eyeshadow.

8. To complete this look and be perfect to Night outs, make sure to add false lashes and line your lower waterline with black eyeliner. Exaggerate your eyeliner by flicking the wing and extending it a bit longer, creating a Cat Eye look.

Product Review: Kohl / Kajal / Dry Eyeliner

Hi Everyone!

I am so happy to share with all of you that I am currently attending make up workshops at The Makeup Artistry, so I can share more make up technique and tips to all of you. Yesterday, during my workshop, I came across this -- Dry Eyeliner or commonly known in the Middle East as Kajal. No second thought, I purchased the product for only Php 250 (50% discount), originally priced at Php 500 (I think).

I am truly amazed with this product. It has been my problem that whenever I will line my waterline with black eyeliner, regardless if it is high end or dupe, I always end up having a Panda eyes.. Yes, my eyeliner smudges all the time, so as an option I always top it with black eyeshadow.

Generally, kajal or kohl liner is ideal for waterline. You can also use it at eyeliner to upper lashes but you have to top with black eyeshadow. Kajal eyeliner, glides easily on the waterline. This is meant to be creamy, and once applied a cool sensation. 

PROs:

- does not smudge in the waterline

- so black and perfect for smokey eyes

- no foul / pungent smell

- handy and can fit your make up purse

- no need to sharpen

- glides easily

- claims to protect the eyes from infection since it is made naturally

CONs:

- quite expensive

- not readily available in Philippines

- can be messy if not applied properly

I hope you find this review helpful, be careful Loves when buying Kajal Eyeline, there are fakes that is not manufactured naturally nor made from cosmetics instead made from soot.

Stay beautiful always.. inside and out!
