Achieve This Look in 8 Steps

 
  • 1. Brown Bone- After applying your base, add a matte white shadow to the brow bone using a flat brush. (For instructions on eyebrows, click here).
  • 2. Crease- Using any medium brown eyeshadow and a blending brush, add the shade into the crease. I used a shadow from www.krystlemakeup.com
  • 3. Lid- Use the same white shade that you used on your brow bone and apply it to the lid with the same flat brush from before. 
  • 4. Top Liner- Apply your top liner, I like to add a slight wing! Keep the line sharp by using a liquid liner. Sharp sealed lines will create a clean look! NYC Liner (brush tip) is my favorite liner! If you have a difficult time with liquid liner, try using a felt tip- it writes like a pen! 
  • 5. Bottom Liner- Define the lower lid by applying black liner to the water lid and smudge it downward using an angle brush.
  • 6. Lashes- After coating your lashes with mascara, apply some false lashes! Wearing false lashes is an easy way to vamp up your look!
  • 7. Shade with Blue- Using a shader brush, shade the lower lid with a blue shadow, starting at the lash line working your way down.

  • 8. Shade with Pink- Use the same brush and lightly apply the pink shade below the blue, overlapping the two colors slightly.

Filter, Filter, Choose a Filter

You wouldn't believe the amount of time that I waste debating between which instagram filter to use! Above you see Valenica, Walden, then  Lo-Fi. I normally go with Valencia or Walden, they're the most flattering to faces because they have a high exposure and a warm temperature! Which one would you choose? Anyways, here are the products for this look: 

  • Shadows: Coastal Scents 88 Color Palette (Magenta/Light Pink in the upper crease, Violet Purple in the crease, Black in the outer corner extended into the crease, and white on the lid and brow bone).
  • Liner: Motives Felt Tip liner (top), MAC Blacktrack (bottom)
  • Lashes: Maybelling Great lash, MAC #3 False Lashes

Plum Tones Makeup Tutorial

 

So I uploaded a winter look using plum tones! To see the video click here. All of the products I used are in the description of the video!

Some Additional commentary...

  • All of the "Essence of Beauty" Makeup Brushes are from CVS :)
  • I lost the chunk of footage that contained the mascara and lashes so that's why it jumped like that, like "Ta-Da!!" magically my lashes are on!
  • My friend Cori, one of the most interesting and talented people I know, was simultaneously shooting a project in the studio with me. So that's why you see her walking around and occasional flashes of light.
  • And last but not least, I hope my sound effects go over well..
