Tutorial | Festive Party Makeup



1. Select a small piece of tape, it's near Chrissy so this was the only kind on hand for me, and line it up where you want the path of your flick to follow. Apply a shimmer highlight on the brow bone and prep the eye with a light contour. I do this because I have an almost hooded eyelid and to help blend other colours later.
2. Using a metallic pencil I begin to map out and shape the look leaving the inner lid bare. Using a pencil brush to blend until the colour becomes a wash.
3. Following where I mapped before, lightly pat a red copper shade over the area and using a clean blending brush blend it out and connect it to either side but still keeping the inner lid bare. 
4.
To further define the inner and outer crease either use a pencil or crease brush to lightly add a dark warm purple and blend it in with the other colours slightly. 
5. Pat a light pink salmon shimmer colour along the middle of your lid that we've been keeping bare.
6. Starting at the inner corner carefully run your liquid liner along your lash line and dragging it up the tape to meet where the eyeshadow ends, thicken the corner and I like to go in carefully with the tip of the liner between my lashes to black out any colour of flesh that may be peeking through. After this you can remove the tape.
7.
Now you can see in 6 I'm not too precise with my liner. I can't do it. It takes so damn long and I almost never get it right. Instead, rather than panic, take a thin angle brush and lightly sweep some black eyeshadow over the edge of your liner. Not only will this disguise an uneven line it also softens the look. Perfect Liner Every Time! 
8. Using a flat top shading brush run the copper shade along your lower lash line, adding the dark purple to the outer corner and the light pink to the inner corner. Line your upper and lower waterline with a black pencil and run a tiny flick in your inner corner if you like. If you find eyeliner separates on your waterline like me set it with black eyeshadow. 
9. Finish off with Mascara.
