Make-up Artist Leanne Shaw’s Hints and Tips:
For an even more professional finish, do not apply foundation under your eyes until your eye look is complete, then after wiping away any fallen shadow you have fresh clean skin on which to apply your base with no dark smudgy areas.
Leanne says..."Purple tones are flattering for all skin tones and are great for brightening tired eyes, making the whites look instantly fresher" |
STEP 1
Apply Inky Purple eyeshadow to centre of your eyelid with the rounded shader brush. Apply Midnight shadow to both inner and outer corners of your eyelid and blend up into socket line with the same brush. Add more colour to darken and intensify, then blend outward to soften.
STEP 2
Using the mini blending brush apply Midnight, this time under the lower lash line from inner to outer corner, and blend.
STEP 3
Apply the black eye pencil to the inner rim of the eye beginning at the inside corner, then again using the pencil, gently dot colour under your lashes using the smudger to blend and soften. Starting at the inner corner this time draw a line along the upper lash line, soften and blend the line outwards using the smudger. Then apply the Highlighter to your brow bones.
STEP 4
Dot Passion Flower shimmer powder overthe Inky Purple shadow, applying this to the centre of your eyelid and to the inner corner of eye. Use the mini blending brush to sweep the Lilac powder under your bottom lashes, starting at the inner corner, gradually blending this into the Midnight eyeshadow you have already applied.
THE FINISHING TOUCH... Apply mascara, wait until dry, then seal with top coat.
