Smokin Hot Eye Tutorial

Alrighty, I have another eye tutorial for you guys today. This one is a bit more dramatic than the other tutorial I did today, and this probably isn't a good everyday look for everyone. But it's totally hot. I decided to go with vivid warm colors and some dramatic liner to make a crazy awesome look. It's kind of my way of saying that I am so over this frigid weather (it's about 16 degrees Fahrenheit here and the windchill has it feeling like it's about 8 degrees) and am totally ready for the sultry, warm summer days.
And just so you know, like the other tutorial I did today, I am not going into detail on exactly what products I used. But all the eye shadows I used are from my Sephora LE Color Daze Blockbuster makeup palette. So let's get this business started!
You're going to want to start with a primed eye, then apply a matte yellow shadow over about half of the lid.
Over the outer half of the lid apply a matte orange shadow and bring it over a little bit of the yellow to help with the blending.
Now I applied a satin finish red through the crease and along the lower lash line.
Next we take a satin finish dark purple along the outer corner of the eye and pull it over the red on the lower lash line.
And now for a matte white on the brow bone and the inner eye for a highlight.
And blend it all like crazy to ease any harsh lines.
Now take a black liquid eye liner and do a dramatic wing. My liner is almost empty, so please excuse the somewhat patchy liner. :(
To finish the look, fill the brows, curl your lashes, apply a black mascara, and run a black pencil liner over your water line.
I hope you enjoyed my smokin hot super sultry summer time look, I was pretty pleased with it. Feel free to leave a comment and let me know what you think, or if you want to know what products I used to create the look. I read and respond to all my comments, and I really appreciate it when you take the time to let me know what you think or ask questions. And if you like what you see don't hesitate to subscribe!

    3. The winged liner just takes practice, good eye liner, and a steady hand.

    5. You could always try the winged eye liner sticker things, I see them all over the place. I've never bought them myself so I can't attest to their quality, but it'd be worth a shot if you really struggle with winged liner.
