Hullo everyone.
A while ago my video collab The Makeup Heroes decided to do a look based on Makeupgeektv's Upside-Down Smokey Eye look.
I took about a million years to do mine because I suck but finally got everything finished yesterday.
I decided to do two different looks and make my first video tutorials at the same time. You can see them on my youtube channel here.
Firstly I did a pretty straight recreation of the look, just using more sparkly makeup. I thought it looked quite pretty but I am pretty awful at smoking out shadows so it's most certainly not perfect :P
Wearing:
Face: Illamasqua Skin Base Foundation in 02, ELF Studio blush and bronzer duo, Illamasqua Under-Eye Concealer in 115 (I think it's a tiny tiny bit too pale for me :( )
Eyes: Illamasqua Precision Ink eyeliner in Glister, Illamasqua Pure Pigment in Static, Illamasqua Medium Pencil in Sophie, Barry M Glitter Dust in 23 , Illamasqua Powder Eyeshadow in Quantum, Benefit They're Real Mascara.
Lips: Evil Shades Deviant Lipstick in Silk stockings
Then I decided to do a slightly more Avant-Garde version of the look, inspired by the Illamasqua Theatre of the Nameless Collection.
Wearing:
Face: Illamasqua Skin Base Foundation in 02.
Eyes: MUA Matt Eyeshadow in 16, Sugarpill Pressed Eyeshadow in Tako, Illamasqua Medium Eye Pencil in Sophie, Illamasqua Precision Ink in Abyss, Benefit They're Real mascara.
Eyebrows: Sugarpill Bulletproof pressed shadow.
Lips: Illamasqua Lipstick in Kontrol
I'll be a bit busy this weekend as tomorrow and Monday we are having some Halloween get-togethers. The winner of my giveaway will be announced on tuesday or wednesday next week (when I have enough time to put together the excel spreadsheet) sorry for the delay!
So beautiful but I especially love the liner look - you've inspired me to play with the shape around my tear duct now! :DD xxx
ReplyDeleteOh you gorgeous lady. I'm so jealous of your eyeliner skills! :)
ReplyDeleteomigosh, rhe liner!!!
ReplyDeletegood idea, love the upside down look. the first lippie is sooo gorgeous...silk stockings, sounds like it'd be haute and it is :D
ReplyDeleteI'm digging both looks! I'm gonna have to try these looks as well!
ReplyDeleteLove both of these looks! I'm a huge fan of the upside down smokey eye!
ReplyDeleteWhoo, I love your second look! Very cool!
ReplyDelete1. I am in LOVE with the upsidedown smokey eye <3
ReplyDelete2. I am SO jealous of how straight your eyeliner is :[
I am not a fan of the upside down smokey eye. It just looks messy and accidental to me. I absolutely adore the second look though! It's probably the precision of your liner that makes it clear it is deliberate and dramatic. Also that lipstick, wow!
ReplyDeleteYou are damn good at eyeliner! And your gorgeous eyes are so bright in both looks, they POP!
ReplyDeleteAww wow, your liner application in the 2nd version is positively enviable!
ReplyDeleteThe second look is amazing! I definitely need to practice with eyeliner more.
ReplyDeleteI like the blue glittery bits in the shadows of the first look, and holy tits that lipstick is beautiful. Your liner in the second look is impeccable; the dark liner and brows makes me think of Pierrot for some reason.
ReplyDeletewell both of them was cool, and it is alwys fun to play more with the surface under the bottom lashes!
ReplyDeleteAwesome, I love the two different takes on the look! I need to try the upside-down smokey eye, it's something I've never thought to do. Thanks for the inspiration!
ReplyDeleteOoooooh, Lillian! Silk Stockings is soooooo beautiful on you! And the avant garde take is effing BRILLIANT! You are the best!
ReplyDeleteYou are really good at doing make up. I wish I could be as good. I think you must have some magical beauty skill that I don't have X)
