This is a look that I wore on a night out a few weeks ago and was actually happy with the way it turned out because when I started it I had no idea what direction I was going to take this make up look . The quality of the photos are not half as clear as photos taken on my camera but I was in a hurry so managed to get a quick picture on my front camera of my phone . This look is a Purple smokey eye with purple and black winged liner + nude lips .
Prep
Step 1 : Remove your make up , even if you have no make up on when you cleanse your skin it creates a clean canvas to apply your make up too . The make up also sits on the skin better .
Step 2 : I then applied some lip balm so my lips were nice and moisturised .
Step 3 : I moisturised my skin.
Eyes
Step 1 : I primed my eyelids .
Step 2 : I set my eyelid primer with a cream coloured eye shadow , this helps a lot for blending out your eyeshadows .
Step 3 : I applied a light purple all over my lid and blended it out with a fluffy blending brush.
Step 4 : I then created a purple winged eyeliner , making it thicker then what I would usually go for . If your having trouble with winged eyeliner I have a full blog post
here . I did it thicker so that once you apply black eyeliner you could still see the purple eyeliner above it .
Step 5 : I create a black winged eyeliner keeping it thin so you could still see the purple eyeliner .
Step 6 : I applied black eyeliner in my waterline and tightline.
Step 7 : I blended out a dark purple on my bottom lash line.
Step 8 : Working in zig zag motions I applied mascara .
Step 9 : I applied some individual eyelashes to create natural looking thicker lashes .
Eyebrows
Step 1 : I brushed my eyebrows up and then across to get the right shape and to make sure there was no build up of product .
Step 2 : Using an eyebrow gel I started off defining the ends of my eyebrows and worked my way to the front of my eyebrows.
Face
Step 1 : I applied foundation with a stippling brush .
Step 2 : I set my foundation with a translucent powder for a matte finish .
Step 3 : I contoured under my cheekbone , sides of my nose , jawline and temples with a grey/brown powder to create the illusion of shadow .
Step 4 : I applied a little highlighter to the top of my cheek bones , tip of my nose and my cupids bow .
Step 5 : Using a light hand I applied some blusher to my cheeks.
