[Tutorial] Blue Emerald Make-Up Tutorial

Hey everyone!

This one will give the impression that it has some similarities to "The Heart of Eternity" look. However, you'll realize that it's nowhere close: this would be more of the warm-tone appropriate look.

Let's Begin!

Before the pictures were taken, 

I applied MAC's Woodwinked on the inner corner all the way to the centre of the eyelid. 

(sorry these pictures were taken from some other time...)

I then applied MAC's Blue Storm on the outer corner, blending softly to the middle. 

Like other tutorials, I created a sharp wing instead of blending out the edges.

If you want more drama, blend Blue Storm with mixing medium and pack it on the other corner.

I kept it natural because I like it natural.

I just thought the look is a bit too simple and wanted to add something on top.

I therefore applied Chanel's Illusion D'ombre in 84 Epatant on the centre of the eyelid.

(If you want a review on the product, please click here)

And I also had Illusion D'ombre on the lower lid. 

This method will give you that pop on your eyes and also that innocent and teary-looking eyes.

(make sure that you don't overdo it though...!)

Finish off with Blitz and Glitz.

And... that's the end of the "Blue Emerald" tutorial :)

[Tutorial] Haunted Little Red Riding Hood Make-Up Tutorial

Hey everyone! I hope you all are preparing well for Halloween.

I had a Halloween party last Friday and this was my last minute make-up but I had great compliments from my guy friends so I decided to share this tutorial.

Let's Begin!

Here I am, either barefaced or with very minimal make-up (i.e., base & eye primer).

(yes, I'm assuming this is the one without make-up 

because I'm covering my face with my hair...lol) 

I applied MAC's Woodwinked on the inner corner and Forest Green Pigment on the outer corner. I blended Forest Green with a dry brush without mixing medium and it turned out to be a beautiful daily look (and this is what I wore to work). However, we're not aiming for a daily look, are we?

Now, this is what you're willing to get.

A metallic forest green.

Now, I wet my brush with mixing medium and 

topped the daily look with more of the Forest Green to accentuate the eyes.

Now, this is completely optional but I made that sharp edges on the outer corners and intentionally didn't blend them for sharp and defined look 

(if you are not a follower of mine, I do that all the time xD).

If you want, you can do so.

Next, I wanted to look haunted since it was Halloween party (but not to the point where I look trashed), so I took Reflects Blackened Red glitter and mix it with Missha's Magic Eyechange to apply them on the lower lash line.

(And, again, this is optional but I mixed Woodwinked with Colour Infallible in #015 Flashback Silver on the inner corner of my eyes to brighten the inner corners of my eyes)

I used MAC's Glitz n Blitz and Maybelline NY Volum' Express the Falsies to finish off.

And that's it for the eyes :D

Products Used:

I wanted the overall look to appear very natural since eyes are so accentuated,

so that the focus is on the eyes, not here and there. I still added minimal amount of bronzer on my cheeks and jaw area (very very minimal so that it shapes the face). 

I hope this tutorial was helpful and if you want more make-up tutorials,

please follow my blog and/or my twitter @CDistrict900212 :)

Thank you so much and I hope you have a wonderful Halloween!

This is my look and sorry for the blurriness but

this is the only picture I could get without others in the photos.

I'll come up with more pictures. Stay tuned!
