Eye Makeup for Dummies

As a makeup artist's daughter, it has always been a private shame of mine that when it comes to applying eye makeup, I am a serious failure. So here is a guide that has really helped me apply makeup and not look a hot mess.

Using brush #13 or Hide Me (camouflage), apply a small amount of eb eye & lip primer from lash line to crease and under eye along lash line. Use finger to blend.

Using brush #14, Mr. Ed (pony fluff), apply allover or base color to lid from lash line to crease & under eye at lash line.

Using brush #8, Tickle Me (precision crease), apply crease color to outer corner and into the crease, another option is to look straight at yourself and apply a small amount of crease color to just above the crease to give added dimension to the eye.

Using brush #11, So Acute (angle detail), apply a powder liner along the lash line (smudging slightly upward for defused look) you can deepen the color at the outer corner for extra depth and drama.

Using brush #9, Eye Spy (smudger), apply even more eye line powder along lash line smudging for a smokey effect. Add under the eyes from outer corner in for ever more intensity.
Optional: For liquid or gel eyeliner or dry/wet minerals use brush #10. Walk the like (eyeliner). Load liquid or gel liner onto brush and tickle lash line from inner to outer corner- press harder to achieve a thicker line.

Using brush #7, 007 (oval detail), apply shimmer pop color to the middle of the lid. This gives a 3 dimensional effect to the eye.
Apply mascara of choice.

Using brush #11, So Acute (angle detail), apply powder eyebrow color to eyebrows. Brush upward in short strokes- direction of hair growth.
Using brush #15, Flawless, blend colors on eye into perfection.

*If you are like me, and extremely challenged at putting on eye makeup or liner, it might be a good investment to get our eye makeup removal as some of our pigments can get messy when whipping off with water.
