Revlon inspired ‘Contoured eye- bold lips’ look FOTD
Hi everyone!
Today I’m doing a contoured eye-bold lip look inspired by the look given by Revlon’s Gucci Westman for the Luca Luca show at New York Fashion Week. See the Luca Luca Look HERE.
Summary of the look :
On a moisturized face, conceal required areas and apply full coverage foundation on face and neck. Blend well and set with powder. For the eyes, apply matte neutral eyeshadow all over lid and darker eyeshadow in crease and outer corner to define and contour the eyes, apply black liner on upper lash line , smudged brown pencil/eyeshadow on lower lash line and mascara on lashes. Define brows with dark brown eyeshadow. Fill in the lips evenly with the bold lip color with a lip brush.
Products used :
EYES :
1. MAC Select moisture cover concealer NC 45.5
2. Coastal scents 88 original palette (circled and starred shades)
3. Maybelline drama gel liner
4. Maybelline colossal volume mascara
5.Maybelline chai latte quad (Dark brown shade- eye brows)
6. Brushes : The Body Shop brushes, MAC 222 brush(blending)
7. Compact/Loose powder for blending
STEPS :
This is my first attempt at contoured eye and I haven’t used too much product in crease to prevent a harsh look.
1. Apply concealer on under eye and lid area and using third finger blend well.
2. Set concealer with powder.
3. Apply neutral eye matte eyeshadow (top most marked shade) over entire lid.
4. Apply second shade (light brown) in crease and blend well. Apply on lower lash line and blend.
5. Take darkest shade (grey-brown right bottom shade) directly on blending brush and blend in crease.
6. Apply even line of black liner on upper lash line. Do not wing it out.
7. Apply brown pencil slightly on lower lash line and smudge with brush. Leave the waterline bare or apply flesh toned pencil.
8. Finish off with mascara.
9. Define and fill in eye brows with matte dark brown eyeshadow.
FACE :
1.MAC Studio fix fluid NC 40
2. Chambor silver shadow compact ‘RR2 Rose Pale’
