My Quick , Simple , No Fuss Evening Eye Makeup
It's hot , it's humid , I can't be spending an age in front of my mirror doing my make up , if I do , by the time I'm finished it will have melted off my face , and onto the floor . I was not built for this heat , at all . With all this practice , I feel that I've kinda nailed the quick Summer make up face . So with
that in mind , I thought I would fill you in on what I do for my eye make up .
Once I've got my base down , I start on my eyes , first thing I start with is 'Maybelline Color Tattoo in On and On Bronze ' . I use either my finger , or a flat eye shadow brush - I use the 'Real Techniques Domed Shadow Brush ' - to sweep it all over my lid , just up to crease , and then use a fluffy blending brush , and blend out the edges . If I feel like I want a more intensity , then I'll add another layer , and blend again .
Then I'll blend a bit of my bronzer into the crease , I use my 'Bourjois Delice De Poudre Bronzing Powder' , this just adds a bit more depth to the eyes .
Next I use my 'Rimmel Scandaleyes Waterproof Khol Kajal Eye Liner in Bronze' and run a good amount across the top of my lashes , it doesn't have to be neat , because then I'll use the same fluffy brush , and blend , to get some more definition on the lashes .
Then I do the same thing and blend just under the bottom lashes , starting about a third of the way from the inner corner , to leave things looking a little more smokey .
I tight line with the same colour , and then tighline over the top of that with the same Rimmel Scandaleyes , but in 'Purple' , and I think this really makes my green eyes pop . I use it over the top of the bronze , as it on its own it doesn't have a deep colour . For Blue eyes , the bronze alone should make them stand out , and for brown eyes try a bold blue !
Lastly I finish it off with a good couple of lashings of 'Lancome Hypnose Star Mascara in Noir Midnight' on the top lashes , and on the bottom lashes my 'No7 Extravagant Volume Waterproof Mascara' cos this stuff stays put , so I can avoid the whole panda eye look .
And that's it ! It may seem like it takes a while by reading it here , but it really doesn't , it is so quick and easy to do , and perfect for the summer , this make up wont budge till you want to take it off !
