Colorful Cat Eye Look

Hello all! Today I decided to play a bit with some color and do something a little more dramatic. I used my Lorac Mega Pro 3 to create this look. If you are interested in learning how I achieved it, keep on reading!

I started off with some clear tape, you want to stick it on the back of your hand first so it loses some of the tackiness (helps to be less painful when you take it off your face). I then applied it to the outer part of the eye, connecting the lower lash line to the edge of my brows. Note: I have uneven brows, one is longer than the other so I had to adjust so the eyes came out as even as possible.

I then primed my lids with Too Faced Shadow Insurance and set that with the shade Pink Cream.

I took the shade Pomegranate which is a shimmery watermelon green and applied that to the crease and blending down the line of the tape on the outer corner of the eye.

I also blended the shade Eggplant, a matte burgundy and placed that over Pomegranate.

I took the shade dark navy and applied that all over the lid.

Then take off the tape very carefully!

I mixed two foundations, the Tarte Rainforest of the Sea in Fair Beige and iSOCiETY Cosmetics foundation in N45 Cool Neutral. I blended that with a damp beauty blender.

To conceal undereyes, I used the salmon shade of the catrice corrector.

To further brighten, I applied Nars Creamy Radiant Concealer in Chantilly and blended that out with the smaller side of the beauty blender.

I set the under eyes with my Laura Mercier secretly brightening powder.

To set the face, I used Physicians Formula powder in Creamy Natural.

I then smudged some of the Dark Navy and Eggplant on the lower lashline.

I filled in my brows with NYX brow pencil in dark brown and set it with essence clear gel.

To highlight the brow bone, I used the shade Snow and a small crease brush.

To contour and bronze, I used Lo Fi from the UD Gwen palette.

For blush, I used Easy also from the UD Gwen palette.

To highlight the face, I used the color Angel from UD Gwen palette.

I set everything with Mario Badescu Rose water spray.

For mascara, I used iSOCiETY Cosmetics in Hello Sailor.

To finish off the look, I used the Laura Geller waterproof lip liner in the shade Cabernet. 

I hope you enjoyed this look. If you want to make it even more dramatic, you could apply some falsies like Ardell Demi 120 Natural.

Thank you all for taking the time to read this! Have a great weekend!

Every day look using the Lorac Mega Pro 3

 

Hello everyone! Today I have a "natural"/"minimal" look that you can rock during the day time for work, errands, etc. I achieved it using the Lorac Mega Pro 3. If you would like to know how, keep on reading.

I started off by priming my lids using my Too Faced Shadow Insurance and setting that with the shade Pink Cream (a matte light pink shade).

I took the shade Bellini, a light shimmery peachy shade and applied that all over the lid.

I then took the shade Rust, a darker orange shimmer shade and applied that to the outer half of the lid.

With a crease brush, I applied the shade Maple a midtone warm brown into the crease and blended that out into the outer v.

For foundation, I used the Tarte Rainforest of the Sea in the shade Fair Beige and blended that out using a damp beautyblender.


I used the catrice peachy corrector on my undereyes and blended that out with the smaller end of the beautyblender.


I brightened the under eye using Nars Creamy radiant concealer in chantilly and blended out with the beautyblender.


To set the under eye, I used my Laura Mercier Secret Brightening powder and a fluffy angled brush.


I set my face with my Physicians Formula powder in Creamy Natural and used a big fluffy brush.


I filled in and set my brows with NYX brow pencil in dark brown and the essence clear gel.


I smudged some of that color maple in the lower lash line.

For a brow bone highlight, I used the shade Crepe, a matte yellow based cream color.


For bronzer/contour, I used Lo-Fi from the UD Gwen palette.


For blush, I used Easy, a shimmery rosy color. (Does not really go on shimmery on the cheeks).


For highlight, I applied the shade Angel from UD Gwen. This shade has a bit of color to it that is just a teensy dark for me so I try to put it on the cheekbones but also on top of the blush on that back part in attempts to make it look a bit more natural.


I set my makeup with my Mario Badescu rose water spray.


For mascara, I used my iSOCiETY mascara in Hello Sailor.



I finished off the look with a lip liner from Laura Geller in the shade Cabernet, a medium dusty rose shade. In the package, it looks like it has some shimmer to it, but it applies pretty matte on the lips.

I hope you enjoyed this look, I think it turned out great for every day/work. 

Thanks for reading!
