Vintage romance smokey eyes & purple lips

 I  started with priming my lids. I used Inglot's AMC gel eyeliner in shade 73 matte which is amazing purple color. I applied it on my lids with my finger and blended it outwards. I applied it on my lower eyelids as well. Then I applied my transition color above my crease. I used the terracotta brown/red from Sleek's Vintage Romance palette (Propose in Prague). I applied Revlon Colorstay eye shadow in shade 05 Hazelnut on top of it. I made sure that both eye shadows were blended well.
Next I started applying the dark pink eyeshadow from Vintage romance palette (Marry in Monte Carlo) into my crease. Then I applied slightly darker shade from the same palette (Honeymoon in Hollywood) into my outer V and on my eyelids. I applied both these shades on my lower lids as well. Next I applied the black/purple glittery eyeshadow (Forever in Florence) on my lashline and I blended it upwards. Next I popped a bit of the silver-white eyeshadow into the inner corners of my eyes.
Then I applied liquid liner along my top lashline and I extended it in the inner and the outer corners.
After I cleaned all the fallouts I applied primer all over my face using Revlon photoready perfecting primer and I let it set for a while.
Then I applied my Mary Kay TimeWise luminous-wear liquid foundation in shade 4 Ivory all over my face. I erased my under eye circles using LA Girl Pro HD concealer in shade Natural. I set everything with white loose setting powder from Grimase. Next I contoured under my cheekbones and bit on my forehead using Revlon Colorstay eyeshadow in shade 05 Hazelnut. Then I applied my Max Factor Clump defy mascara on the top and bottom lashes.
Afterwards I defined my eyebrows using Maybelline Color Tatttoo creamy eyeshadow in shade black and I brushed them through with clear brow gel.
Then I moved on to my lips. I first applied the same purple gel eyeliner as I used for my eyes on my lips with lipbrush. Then I darkened the outlines and inner corners using the black/purple eyeshadow from Sleek Vintage romance palette (Forever in Florence). I applied the dark pink shadow (Honeymoon in Hollywood) in the center of my lips.

Vampy look: grey smokey eyes and red lips

I've started with priming my eyes with a black creamy eyeshadow. I used Maybelline Color Tattoo 24H cream in shade 60 Timeless Black. I applied it on my lash line and the moving part of my lid with a brush and I blended it outwards and upwards up to my eye socket. Applying black creamy base makes all the black eye shadows stay in place, it makes them more intensive and it avoids creasing and fall outs through the day (or night). Next I blended the edges with a matte light warm brown eye shadow. I used Revlon Colorstay in shade 05 Hazelnut. This was my transition color. Then I applied a matte black eye shadow all over my eyelids with a stiff flat brush. I used Rimmel Glam eyes eyeshadow in shade 214 Jet Black. I applied this same eyeshadow into my crease as well using big fluffy blending brush. I applied just a bit at the time and kept blending over the light brown I applied earlier to achieve nice diffuse effect.
Then I applied the same creamy eyeshadow on my lower lash line and the same black matte eyeshadow on top of it. I made sure everything is blended nicely. Then I applied the light brown eyeshadow below the black one to create a nice transition of colors. I wanted to achieve more 'vampy' look with big spooky-looking eyes.
When I was finished with eyeshadow I lined my waterline (top and bottom) using Essence Long Lasting eye pencil in shade 01 Black Fever. Then I applied a liquid liner on my top lash line and I extended it in my inner and outer corners. I used Catrice Liquid Liner Waterproof  in shade 010.
Then I moved to the rest of my face. I first primed my T-zone and cheeks (basically are where I have enlarged pores) with Smashbox Photo Finish foundation primer. Then I applied a very thin layer of MAC Pro Longwear concealer in shade NC15 all over my face and I blended it with  beauty blender sponge. I applied a bit more under my eyes to conceal any dark circles. I set everything with a loose white setting powder from Grimase. Then I contoured under my cheekbones a bit using Revlon Colorstay eyeshadow in shade 05 Hazelnut. I discovered this works amazing as a contour powder as well and the shade is perfect for my complexion. Next I defined my brows using a black brow pencil by Essence and some clear brow gel to set everything in place. I also applied some mascara.
Then I applied red liquid lipstick on my lips (from brand W7). I overlined them slightly. Then I outlined them using the  black eye pencil (Essence Long Lasting in shade 01 Black Fever). Then I blended the black line with the applicator from the liquid lipstick with a tiny bit of a product on it. When the liquid lipstick dried I applied the top gloss layer on top of it.

Modern MOD style

I've started with priming my eyes (as usually). I first applied my MAC Pro Longwear Concealer in shade NC 15 and MAC Paint Pot in Soft Ochre on top of it. I set it with Inglot Freedom System Matte eyeshadow in shade 350. Then I applied plenty of white eyeshadow (Inglot Freedom System Matte in shade 373) under my brows, in my inner corners and on the moving part of my lids. Then I drew my crease where I wanted it (which is way higher than it actually is) with black matte eyeshadow and small angled brush. Then I started to blend it with matte dark chocolate color and very small fluffy brush. I blended the edges of the chocolate color with cool medium brown eye shadow (Inglot Freedom System Matte in shade 342) and I blended that one with white shadow I used earlier. I had to blend very carefully and make sure I didn't go too high. When I was satisfied with transition of colors I drew a thin black line with liquid liner on top of the black eye shadow line I created earlier. I blended this line with black eyeshadow so it would fade into the brown eyeshadow.
Next I lined my upper lash line with liquid liner and I winged it out. I made sure I wouldn't connect this line with the one on the crease.
Then I applied medium brown eyeshadow on my bottom lids and I blended it well.
Afterwards I moved on to my face. I primed my T-zone and cheeks using Smashbox Photo Finish foundation primer. Then I applied my currently favourite foundation Mary Kay TimeWise luminous-wear liquid foundation in shade 4 Ivory. I concealed my under eye area using LA Girl Pro HD concealer in shade Natural and I set everything with loose powder from Mary Kay. I also contoured under my cheekbones using Inglot Freedom system matte eyeshadow in shade 342.
Next I defined my eyebrows using matte black eyeshadow (I've been using the whole time in this look)  Rimmel Glam eyes in shade 214 Jet Black. I also brushed them through with some clear brow gel.
Then I applied plenty of mascara. I used L’Oréal Volume Million Lashes So Couture mascara and Max Factor Wild Mega Volume mascara.
As a final step I applied nude pinky lipstick Max Factor Lipfinity 001 Pearly Nude.

Grungy copper look using Sleek Sunset Palette

 I've started differently this time. I first primed my face using Dermacol Sheer Face Illuminator in shade Sun Bronze. Afterwards I applied my foundation on top of it. I used Mary Kay TimeWise luminous-wear liquid foundation in shade 4 Ivory. The combination of foundation and illuminator gave my skin beautiful fresh glow.

I concealed my under eye area using LA Girl Pro HD concealer in shade Natural and I set everything with Mary Kay Translucent Loose powder. I contoured under my cheekbones a bit using Inglot Freedom System Matte eyeshadow in shade 342.

Then I moved on to the eyes. I applied a bit of a concealer on my eyelids and I set it with powder. I highlighted my brow bone using Inglot Freedom System Matte eyeshadow in shade 373 and I applied shade 350 all over my eyelid. Then I applied coppery-red eyeshadow from Sleek Sunset palette on the moving part of my lids and I blended it upwards. I applied this shadow all along my lower lash line as well. Next I darkened the outer V's using cool burgundy shimmery shadow from the same palette. I darkened it even more using matte black shadow. I applied tiny bit of the golden eye shadow into my inner corners.
When I was done with applying and blending of eye shadows I lined my eyes using liquid liner from Catrice.
Next I applied L’Oréal Volume Million Lashes So Couture mascara on my top and bottom lashes.

I defined my eyebrows using Rimmel Glam eyes eyeshadow  in shade214 Jet Black.


Then I moved on to the lips. First I outlined them using Essence Long Lasting eye pencil 01 Black Fever and then I applied Max Factor Lipfinity color & gloss liquid lipstick in shade 550 Reflective Ruby. I blended the outline a bit before it dried in order to achieve bit of an ombre effect.

Smoked out cat eye with ombre lips

 I've started with priming my eyes using MAC Paint Pot in Soft Ochre. I applied it in my crease all the way to my brow. Then I started forming my ´cat eye´ with black eye pencil L’Oréal Color Riche LeKajal 501 Black. I drew a thick line from my inner to my outer corner. Then I used L’Oréal Color Riche LeKhol 101 Midnight black to refine the line and sharp the points (especially my outer corners). Afterwards I began with applying my eyeshadows. I started from the lightest - the matte white one from Sleek Acid Palette. I applied it under my brows to highlight the area. Then I applied a cool beige shadow below the white one all the way to my crease (Inglot 350). Afterwards I started to deepen the crease using light brown matte eyeshadow (Inglot 342) and a matte black (Rimmel Glam eyes 214 Jet Black). I applied the black also on my black pencil line I created earlier and I blended it upwards a bit. Then I applied even darker black matte eyeshadow on top of the line to darken it (black shade from Sleek Acid Palette). I applied bit of the matte black also on my lower lash line and I blended it quite low. As a next step I applied a liquid liner from Catrice on my top and bottom lash line. I made very fine lines in my inner corners. I made the bottom lines a bit longer then the lines from top to give it more special look. Then I applied my W7 Get Set white eyeshadow base in my waterline and in the inner corners (between those fine lines I created with my liquid liner earlier). I set the base with the white eyeshadow.
Then I moved on to the rest of my face. I first applied Smasbox Photo Finish foundation base in my T-zone and Mary Kay TimeWise luminous-wear liquid foundation in shade 4 Ivory all over my face. I contoured using my beauty88.nl concealer palette and the darkest shade and I set it all with Mary Kay loose translucent powder. I set my contouring with light brown matte eyeshadow  (Revlon Colorstay in shade 05 Hazelnut). Afterwards I defined my brows using black brow pencil from Essence and black matte eyeshadow (Rimmel Glam eyes 214 Jet Black). I also brushed them through with clear brow gel. Afterwards I applied 2 mascaras - Max Factor Clump Defy and Rimmel Scandal eyes. Then I moved on to my lips. I lined them first with berry colored lip pencil and applied my lipstick - Maybelline Super Stay 14H Lipstick 260 Always Plum. Then I darkened the inner corners of my mouth with the black matte eyeshadow (from Sleek Acid Palette) and applied the fuchsia color in the centre (from Sleek Acid Palette as well). That was it for the look.

Black & Magenta using Sleek Acid Palette

I've started as always with priming my lids. I've used MAC Paint Pot in Soft Ochre in my crease and brow bone and L’Oréal Color Riche LeKajal in 501 Black on my top and bottom lid. 
Then I applied the white matte eyeshadow from Sleek's Acid palette under my brows. Afterwards I applied my transition shade -  Revlon Colorstay in shade 05 Hazelnut. I blended it together with the white shadow I applied earlier. I applied several layers of this Hazelnut shadow to achieve density I wanted. This step is very important with using dark or cool toned eye shadows such as black or grey because it avoids the dark (or cool toned eye shadows) appear blue-ish. Also with using very dark colors it creates barrier for dark shades so they don't go too high and avoids the "black-eye effect". Plus it makes blending dark colors much easier. You need to use matte brown color with warm undertone which is slightly darker than your skin color but also not too dark. Then I applied matte black eyeshadow to my crease and I blended it with the black base I applied earlier and I applied it in my outer V's as well. I used Rimmel Glam eyes in shade 214 Jet Black. I blended my lower lash line using the same black eyeshadow. Then I applied the fuchsia pink matte eyeshadow from Sleek Acid palette on my lids - top and bottom. I used flat stiff brush and patting motion. I kept on re-applying till I was satisfied with the intensity. Because of the black base the fuchsia color turned more purple so it became beautiful magenta color. To add a bit more shimmer I applied MAC pigment in  shade Nocturnal on my top lids. Then I lined my top lash line using Rimmel's gel eyeliner in shade Black. I lined my waterline with black eye pencil from Essence.


Then I moved on to the face. I started with priming my T-zone area with Smashbox Photo finish foundation primer. Afterwards I applied my Mary Kay TimeWise luminous-wear liquid foundation in shade 4 Ivory. I used L’Oréal True Match Touche Magique Concealer pen under my eyes. I also contoured under my cheekbones using my beauty88.nl concealer palette and the darkest shade. I set everything with Mary Kay loose translucent powder. 
Then I defined my eyebrows using Maybelline Color Tattoo 24H cream in shade 60 Timeless Black and angled brush. I brushed them through with clear brow gel. I finished off my eyes with the mascara - Max Factor Clump Defy first and Rimmel Scandal eyes second.
I first lined my lips using black eye pencil from essence and I filled them in afterwards (using the same pencil). Then I applied the same fuchsia eyeshadow I used for my eyes in the centre of my lips. 

Edgy metallic eyes using Revlon Peacock Lustre

 I've started with priming my eyelids. I used MAC Paint Pot Soft Ochre on my crease all the way under my brow and L’Oréal Color Riche LeKajal in 501 Black on my top and bottom lids.
Then I applied my first eyeshadow: Revlon Colorstay in shade 05 Hazelnut into my crease and a bit above and I blended it well. This was my transition color. Then I applied Inglot 373 matte white eyeshadow under my brows to highlight it. Then I smudged my crease with a matte black eyeshadow (Rimmel Glam eyes 214 Jet Black) and I blended it with the Hazelnut shadow I applied earlier. I always have to blend higher and pass the crease because I have hooded eyes and all the eyeshadows I apply on my lid are not visible when I open my eyes. The part above my crease is visible so that's where my eyeshadows need to be if I want it to be visible with my eyes open. I also want my eyes to appear bigger so I always blend my colors pass the crease. Afterwards I applied the main "color": Revlon Satin in shade 025 Peacock Lustre. I applied it all over my eyelids with patting motion and flat stiff brush. I also applied it on my bottom lids. Afterwards I darkened my outer-V's with the same black eyeshadow I applied earlier (Rimmel Glam eyes 214 Jet Black). I blended all the colors together a bit so I wouldn't have any harsh edges and I applied my gel eyeliner from Rimmel. I extended the wing quite far on my top line and I also applied it to my waterline. Afterwards I applied a shimmery silver-white eyeshadow in my inner corners (from Sleek Vintage Romance palette).
Then I moved on to my face. First I applied a primer all over using Smashbox photo finish foundation primer. Then I applied a very thin layer of LA Girl Pro HD concealer in shade Natural all over my face (instead of foundation) and L’Oréal True Match Touche Magique Concealer pen under my eyes. I contoured under my cheekbones with my beauty88.nl palette (the darkest shade) and I set my whole face with Mary Kay loose translucent powder. I went over the contouring with Revlon's Hazelnut eyeshadow again to give it more definition.
Afterwards I defined my brows using black brow pencil from Essence and a clear brow gel. Then I finished off my eyes with a mascara - as always Max Factor Clump Defy and Rimmel Scandal eyes.
I completed the look with a nude pink lipstick from Max Factor Lipfinity in shade 001 Pearly Nude.

Plum smokey eyes - Sleek Vintage Romance

I've started with applying base all over my lids. I've chosen a shimmery pink cream eyeshadow (Maybelline Color Tattoo 24H cream 65 Pink Gold). Next I highlighted the area under my brows with the matte white eyeshadow. I used the white one from Sleek's Au Naturel palette. Then I applied my transition color in the crease - Inglot 342. Afterwards I applied my main lid color from Sleek's Vintage Romance palette. It is very beautiful pink-plum color with satin finish and subtle glitter. I pressed it on my lids with patting motion and I blended it slightly in the crease area. Then I blended the crease again with orange-brown matte eyeshadow from Vintage Romance palette. I applied the same plum color on my lower lids. Next I applied the silver-white shimmery eyeshadow in my inner corners. Afterwards I darkened the crease with matte black eyeshadow (from Sleek Au Naturel palette). Then I applied a liquid eyeliner on my top lashline and I winged it out slightly. I also applied a bit on my lower lashline. I finished off with the silver eyepencil in my waterline. 

Next I applied a primer in my T-zone. I used Gosh velvet touch. 

Afterwards I used MAC's Pro Longwear Concealer in shade NC15 all over my face. I highlighted under my eyes using L’Oréal True Match Touche Magique Concealer pen. I did some light contouring under my cheekbones using my cream concealer palette. I set everything with a lose powder from Mary Kay and I applied a plum blush from Sleek's Sugar palette. Then I defined my brows using a black brow pencil and I brushed them through with a clear brow gel. Next I applied mascara - as always Clump Defy from Max Factor first and Scandal eyes by Rimmel second. Then I applied lipstick. I chose Maybelline's Super stay 24h in Raspberry. While it was drying I applied the same plum eyeshadow I applied on my lids earlier on my lips with dabbing motion. Then I applied some black eyeshadow into the corners of my mouth and I blended it slightly to achieve an ombre effect.

Burgundy smokey eyes

I've started with applying cream-powder eyeshadow (Bourjois Color Editon 24H Cream to Powder texture Prune Nocturne) all over my top and bottom lid. Then I blended the edges using beige matte eyeshadow from Sleek's Au Naturel palette. Then I highlighted under my brows using matte white eyeshadow from the same palette. Then I blended the edges under my bottom lid with the same beige eyeshadow. Afterwards I darkened the outer edges with dark matte burgundy eyeshadow and blended it well. I made the outer-V's even darker with matte black eyeshadow. To make the burgundy color stand out more I applied the plum pigment from Kryolan onto the moving part of my top lids and bit on the bottom lids as well.

Then I applied black liquid eyeliner on my top lashline and I extended it a bit towards the end of my brows. Next I applied my MAC's Pro longwear concealer in NC15 instead of a foundation and I set it with the lose powder from Mary Kay. Then I contoured a bit under my cheekbones using medium brown matte eyeshadow (Inglot 342). I defined my brows with black brow pencil and I brushed them through with clear brow gel afterwards. I finished off my eyes with mascara. I used Rimmel's Scandal eyes. As a last step I applied my lipstick. I used Maybelline's Super Stay 14 h lipstick in shade 260 Always plum. 

Metallic browns using Sleek Storm Palette

This is another from my signature looks - bit over dramatic smokey eyes with bold eyeliner combined with dark lips and pale skin. For me this is a daytime look but I get that not everybody is a rockchick/metalhead \m/. Anyway, this look can be toned down a bit, with neutral lips, not so over the top eyeliner and more natural lighter looking brows. This is how I created the look:
First I started with priming my lids. I used Maybelline's color tattoo shimmery bronze-brown creamy eyeshadow as  a base. Then I highlighted under my browbone with matte white eyeshadow (Inglot 373) and applied my transition color from my Sleek Storm Palette which is medium warm beige. Then I darkened the crease with chocolate matte color and blended it very well. Then I applied the shimmery chocolate brown eyeshadow all over my lids and also pass the crease in the outer corners. I made the outer corners slightly darker than my lids. I darkened the outer-v area with matte black shadow. I blended the edges very well to get smooth transmission of colors. I applied the shimmery brown shadow to my lower lids as well. I darkened the outer edges with black as well. As a last step I applied golden shimmery color in my inner corners and that was it for eyeshadow.
I primed my face with Gosh's Velvet touch primer which I find absolutely amazing. I didn't use any foundation today but MAC's Pro Longwear concealer in NC15 instead. I contoured lightly under my cheekbones using my concealer palette. I set everything with my lose translucent powder from Mary Kay. I contoured my cheekbones again with medium brown eyeshadow to make the contouring more visible. I used Inglot's 342 eyeshadow.
Afterwards I applied my gel eyeliner (from Rimmel) on my top lashline and I extended it towards ends of my brows. I applied matte black eyeshadow on top of my eyeliner to make it darker and get rid of the shine. Then I applied mascara. I used L'Oréal's Million Lashes So Couture first and Rimmel's Scandal Eyes afterwards. Then I defined my eyebrows slightly using the same black eyeshadow from Sleek's Storm palette and bit of a clear brow gel.
For my lips I used Maybelline's Super Stay 16H lipstick in shade Chestnut.
