My Mardi Gras Themed Makeup!
So today I did a Mardi Gras themed look for /r/MakEnts. I was pretty happy with how it turned out and just wanted to share it!

Green Smokey Eye with Winged Liner Tutorial
Hello beautiful people! It's tutorial time. I started out today with a glittery green smokey eye and *never* got out of my pajamas. This is how I live. Anyway, let's get down to business...
The look we are creating is this:
STEP ONE: Do I even need to tell you? Clean, moisturised skin!
STEP TWO: Buff in your foundation. (I'm trying something different today - I will be adding the product list at the end of the tutorial. Let me know what you think about that.)
STEP THREE: Apply a thin layer of cream shadow up to the crease in the colour you want your look to be. I went for green today. You could also prime here!
STEP FOUR: Pat a glittey shadow onto the cream shadow base. The brightly coloured base really gives his look dimension. I love it! So much fall out though. Shit.
STEP FIVE: Blend a darker shadow in a similar tone into the crease and above. I added more shadow after this picturre but forgot another one. But hopefully you get the gist.
STEP SIX: Take your cream base and blended in into your bottom lash line.
STEP SEVEN: Blend the glitter shade all the way along the bottom lash line over the base. Take the darker shade and blend that into the outer 1/3 of the lash line.
STEP EIGHT: Clean up all that nasty fall out and conceal under your eyes. This is also a good time to clean up around the edges of the shadow,
STEP NINE: Line your upper lash line with a liquid liner. Create a wing that follows your eyeshadow. Line your lower and upper waterline with black eyeliner. I also highlighted my brow bone here.
STEP TEN: Pencil in those brows! And add some mascara. Your eyes are done!
STEP ELEVEN: Contour, highlight, and add some lip gloss! Don't go too crazy - the eyes are your main focus. I moved into the natural light by the window for this picture.
