Sunset Half Cut Crease | Make Up Tutorial

Here is my first Youtube video in ages ! I've really missed Youtube. I created this sunset half cut crease , half cut creases are sooo popular at the moment , they're easy to do once you get the hang of it and flattering on most eye shapes !

These colours are especially lovely since where in the Autumn months . If I was doing a half cut crease with any other colours I would still use the same steps as I did in this video . I find that the Inglot gel liner is the best for cutting the crease . Nail brushes I got in Dealz come in really handy to for liner & carving out the crease because there nice & small  . Also I think the Rebeluna lashes in the style 'Izzy' are my new favourite lashes .

Also top tip for half cut crease : Make sure you carve out the crease a bit above you actually crease so once your eyes are open you can still see the cut crease .

Smokey Winged liner & a red lip (Video Tutorial)

I'm back ! This time with a video tutorial . I love writing the blog tutorials but I think most people including myself find it easier to learn by video , so here it is my first youtube tutorial .

Side Note : I hate my nails , colour and shape I felt like a eagle or some sort of bird. I stuck them on a few minutes before the video and regret it straight away haha .

Step By Step 

Step 1 : I moisturised my skin .

Step 2 : I primed my eyelids .

Step 3 : I then got some black eyeshadow and an angled eyeliner brush . I created a wing the way I would with normal eyeliner but it does not to be perfect because you will be smoking it out anyway .

Step 4 :I added some more black eyeshadow and blend it out again .

Step 5 : I then tidied up my wings with a cotton bud and some make up remover .

Step 6 : To make the eyeliner a little more defined and polished looking I added some liquid liner .

Step 7 : Next I did my eyebrows by brushing them up then across to get the shape . I then applied an eyebrow gel with and angled brush . I started at the outer part of my eyebrow and worked my way to the front of my eyebrow . I lightly applied the eyebrow gel to the front of my eyebrows for a more natural look . To evenly distrubt the eyebrow gel throughout my eyebrows I lightly brushed them again.

Step 8 : I then applied some concealer under my eyes .

Step 9 : Using a light brown eyeshadow I blended it out on my bottom lash line .

Step 10 : I applied my foundation using a stippling brush .

Step 11 : I set my foundation to keep it in place all day .

Step 12 : I then went ahead and highlighted the tops of my cheekbones ,my cupids bow (centre of your top lip) and the tip of my nose .

Step 13 : I applied some blush to the apples of my cheeks .

Step 14 : To warm up my skin I applied some warm toned bronzer.

Step 15 : I lined my lips with a red lipliner then filled it in using a matte red lipstick .

Step 16 : After I did that I applied some mascara to my top and bottom lashes  .

Step 17 : I went in with the brown eyeshadow I used on my bottom lash line and blended it out in my crease using a fluffy blending brush.

Step 18 : Using a damp eyeshadow brush I packed on some gold eyeshadow to the inner part of my eyelid .

Step 19 : I highlighted my inner tear duct with a pearlescent white to brighten up my eyes .
