Sparkling Cut Crease ft Stila Magnificent Metals Foil Finish Eye Shadow!

Hello! Meow! I've been able to get a couple new things recently and I am so excited to be able to review them. Thank you tax return! One of the things I picked up was my first Stila Magnificent Metals Foil Finish Eye Shadow. And one of the first things I did was whip it out of it's packaging and make a tutorial with it. I promise to review all these things ASAP but for now.. check out my tutorial!

 This is the look we will be creating!

 Start with clean, moisturized skin! This is especially important for this look because I wanted glowing, "lit from within" skin.

 Prime your eyes with a flesh toned primer such as  MAC Pro Longwear Paint Pot in Painterly.

 Using an angled brush, mark out your crease with  MAC Espresso Eye Shadow. Remember to keep that line crisp!

Blow out the shadow above the creasing using a fluffy brush. Although you want it blended, remember to keep the crease crisp!

 Now for the hard part! Take your Stila Magnificent Metals Foil Finish Eye Shadow (This one is Metallic Dusty Rose) and pat it onto your lid using your pinky. Try to get as close to the crease line as possible without smudging it.

 This is what your eye will look like after those steps!

 Now fill in your brows! A strong brow looks great with a cut crease.

 Time for foundation! Use a buildable foundation to get skin that looks flawless without being cakey. MAC Studio Fix Fluid SPF 15 is a great option.

 Apply a pink blush such as Stila Custom Color Blush in Sheer Pink to the apples of your cheeks and slightly up your cheek bones. Contour the hollows of your face with a cream product. I'm obsessed with Illamasqua Cream Pigment in Hollow!

 No face is finished without liner and lashes! Use a black liquid liner (Too Faced 3*Way Lash Lining Tool ) on your top lash line and make sure you wing it out. I like wings in summer. Tight line in between lashes and your upper waterline for a full lashes look - no falsies needed! For a bright, awake look line your bottom water line with a nude liner or concealer pencil like the super cheap Hard Candy Glamoflauge Pencil. Finish off with a few coats of black mascara! (Clinique High Impact Mascara - Black)

 And add some lipstick! What kind of look would it be without lipstick? Go for a bright colour in the same family as your blush. I used OCC Lip Tar in Strumpet. Also, if you need to do any last minute concealing - now is the time!

 An "eyes closed" view of the final product! I had to do some cleaning up of the crease because of glitter transfer.

Here it is! What do you think? Feed back is always welcome and appreciated!
