Burgundy smokey eye

Remember ladies, there is a fine line between applying  a Smokey eye with makeup and a raccoon getting ready for a KISS concert.

Hello lovely,

Welcome to day 12 of 14 days of makeup!! There's only 2 days left its gone so quickly! but today I wanted to show you a look I love today this is a look I use whenever I go out I really like this look.

This is a mix between a brown and a red eye however it look beautiful with any lipstick colour, any lashes, any skin tone and any type of liner.

I started this look by applying my simple kind to skin hydrating light moisturiser and lightly worked it into the skin. I used a colour correction concealer using a purple concealer on my under eyes to brighten them up and blended them in with my RealTechniques setting brush, I then used a green concealer to cover any redness on my cheek. I then continued by applying my Rimmel match perfection foundation on a foundation brush and blended it out with a stippling brush and made sure to blend down my neck. I then used a cream contour and an angled brush to blend into the hair line on my cheek bones, jaw, temples and nose. I then use Makeup Revolution highlighter. Just before I finished my face I then applied my translucent powder by Kryolan. I then to completely finish my face I spayed my face with NYX setting spray for long lasting wear ability.

For the eyes I wanted to use a lot of similar colours to create a Smokey look. I first started with 'Texture' by MAC in the crease and blending it up. I then went over it with 'Swiss chocolate' by MAC in the crease and blending it up but not as high as 'Texture'. I then patted 'Embark' all over my lid. I use a patting motion to gain a lot more pigment rather than sweeping across the lid gives an uneven look. I then used a small amount of 'Twinks' by MAC to blend in 'Embark' to the other colours, to ensure there's no block lines and everything blends nicely.

I then took a gel eyeliner by Collection and used it on my water line and tight line. I then used

'Texture', 'Swiss chocolate', 'Embark' and 'Twinks' and used an accent brush and blended it together  on the lower lash line and blending down the eyeliner for a more Smokey effect. I then winged my liner with L'Oréal liquid eyeliner pen. I then use my Maybelline big eyes mascara on my top and bottom lashes. I then use natural false lashes, and stick them as close to the lash line as possible, I then do a coat of my mascara over  my lashes with my false lashes on so they blend together. I then fill in my brows with W7 brow parlour.

Then for lips I used rimmel lipstick in the shade'107 Alarm'. I didn't use any lip pencil or anything however if I was to you a lip pencil it would be 'burgundy' by MAC. I really like this with a dark brown lip

Hope you liked day 12 of 14 days of makeup. I love this look ill happily wear this out on a night out or on a trip to the supermarket its so versatile especially with lip colours its so beautiful. If you want me to cover anything leave a comment or tweet me @p_a_pblog and to be the first to see what iv gotten up to follow my Instagram.
