First Full Makeup Tutorial

Step by step tutorial on how I created this look

more below the cut.

please comment.

1) just got out of the shower – as bare as can be

 

2) foundation - Max Factor Pan Stik in Medium Beige, applied with the C707-1 foundation brush

- swipe on face (cheeks, forehead, nose, and chin)

* I put my lil pinky there so you’ll know the size – pinky is about the size of a quarter, just a tad bit bigger.

- after foundation

 

3) Everyday Minerals – Soft Bronzer, applied with Deluxe Buffer brush

- after soft bronzer (here I basically used it as a setting powder)

 

4) Eyeshadow base – Urban Decay Primer Potion (UDPP), applied with fingers

 

5) All over/highlight shadow – MAC in “Ricepaper”, applied with large chisel fluff brush

- apply all over lid

 

6) Eyeshadow – MAC “Earthly Riches” Mineralize Shadow, applied with medium chisel fluff brush

- apply on lid only

 

7) Blend, blend, blend!!!!

- Sonia Kashuk limited edition blending brush

- Can you see the difference? The eye on the left is blended (really my right eye), the one on the right is not (really my left eye).

 

8 ) Apply ULTA’s “Galaxy” Eyeshadow to crease

- don’t worry about fall outs – you can brush them away later

 

9) Brush away fall outs with the Deluxe Soft Fan brush

 

10) Apply Ten Beauty’s “Suede” right underneath brow bone as highlight

 - you can see how much I love this!

 

11) Curl eyelashes!

- my favorite eyelash curler by E.L.F. – it broke while my sis & bro in law were in town so my bro in law fixed it for me! what a handy man. =)

- make sure to get all your lashes

- curled pre mascara

 

12) Add mascara

- first time trying the Max Factor “2000 Calorie” mascara and I love it!

- just one coat!

- left eye above (really my right eye) has mascara, the other does not.

 

13) Fill in brows – Sephora “duo N 05″ with Sonia Kashuk limited edition brow brush

- left (my right eye) filled, right (my left eye) not, I think you can tell, right? =)

- both filled

 

14) Eyeliner – I used Prestige Liquid Eyeliner in black on upper lashes and Prestige Waterproof Eyeliner pencil in black on my lower waterline

- eyes el final

 

15) Lips – lipliner: Avon in “Neutral”, lipstick: Avon in “Beach Glow”

- lipliner only

- with lipstick

 

16) Blush – Jane’s “Blushing Petal,” applied with ECOtools Blush brush

- make a fishy face so you can apply the blush right on the apples of your cheeks

 

17) VIOLA !!!!
