I've finally managed to play with my eyes, I've been super busy the past few days, meeting friends, buying gifts, doing chores..... It's time for me to relax!!! And relax time means playing with make-up! I love creating new looks, but the hate part? Make-up removing! LOL
Here's a look I came out with. I didn't use any gray but I like how it came out to be "silvery gray". <--- ON PHOTOS!!! (I guess it's because of the flash, my Laura Mercier Blue shadow has specks of silver.
Oh yeah, people are wondering what's the right spelling for the Color Gray/Grey. I've researched and Gray is American spelling, and Grey is British. And I've read that the original spelling of Grey is Grey and it evolved to Gray <-- Right or Wrong, it's still nice to know some extra info right?
Here's my final look
Interested to know what products I've used?

2. Using a blending brush, lightly sweet through any matte brown color (I've used L'oreal Hip in Foxy) on the crease area.

3. Using a smaller crease brush, apply the darkest color from the Laura Mercier Blue Sky Quad on the outer V. Blend blend blend with a larger blending brush. Re-apply if needed.

4. Highlight the browbone area and inner corner of the eye with the white shimmer e/s from K anebo PK-2

I apologize for angry at you for something you didn't do at all. Stupid of me. :P

ReplyDeleteMy art tutor used to tell me to mix blue and brown to get a more natural grey, rather than mixing black and white. Didn't know that it applies in makeup too. Haha.I guess painting your face is pretty much the same as painting a canvas then huh? :D
