Birthday Makeup!

So on Tuesday 12th January it was my long awaited 18th birthday! I'm FINALLY an adult and am able to do so much! I was asked to recreate a specific dark red/plum look in which I hadn't used liquid eyeliner as I usually do, but for the purpose of this tutorial and the fact I had used different lashes, I decided to use liquid eyeliner!...

So to start I have used my NARS radiant creamy concealer in Chantilly as a base. I then added my transition shade which is 'Raw' from my makeup revolution Flawless palette! To continue the look I added a matte blush pink colour from my Audacious palette from Freedom! I love the way these colours work together!

After this I went in with Universal from the same Flawless palette! This colour is a gorgeous metallic rose gold tone, it really helps to brighten blue/grey/green eyes! Also, it added a lot of depth ready for my next two colours! Again from the same palette, I used red night on my outer corner and into the crease, a lovely red that really increases the look of blue pigment in your eyes, I also added this to the underneath of my eye! I then chose to use Medal on my lid, a beautiful copper, gold, creamy pigment, I used this as a base as I then added a glitter based orange shadow to make sure my eyes don't crease, as cream based eyeshadows have a tendency to crease or smudge throughout the day if you do not set them!

To really deepen my crease and outer eye, I added a stunning deep, glittery purple colour, I only needed a small touch of this as I didn't want to take away from the red shadow. I love this purple colour paired with reds as I feel they balance each other out to create these perfect hues of colour, that can really change any look!

To complete, I applied my Rimmel London Glam Eyes liquid eyeliner in a very strong, pointed cat eye shape. for my eyes in particular, extended wings make my eyes look slimmer which gives me a gorgeous cat-eye look! I also applied a few coats of mascara and my Eyelure 140 eyelashes, as these extend outwards towards the end they again give my eyes a really nice shape! I paired this look with a nude, matte lipgloss from MUA called 'tranquility'.
