guys welcome back to the makeup chair today I want to show you guys and really in depth makeup tutorial for DIY prom this is a very go-to look that I get us a lot to recreate on real people definitely adapt this for whatever works for your skin tone your outfit just change certain steps and I talked about that throughout the entire video and I also wanted to show you guys my kind of live demo way of doing this so it's a longer video lots of tips and tricks in this one so I hope you guys enjoy it and let's cut to titus so a couple of things before we get started I'm going to use a moisturizer to begin with which I want to apply all over my face but later on we're going to remove it along the cheeks and then we're going to reapply it the reason I do this is because we're starting off the eyes and I want to create a really clean line underneath if you prefer joining me all the way around feel free to skip past the eyes and then come back however for beginners I always think it's a good idea to start with your eyes first because it lets the clean up if you mess up your eyes which can happen so this is the garni moisturizer thave one for every skin type pretty much moisturize skin always photographs better so any skin that's exposed apply a little bit of moisturizer I'm going to do one eye off-camera and then one alike on camera but I want you guys to do both eyes at the same time to keep a nice balance so a little trick that I like to do is actually apply a mixture of concealer and primer all over the lid and then right up towards the brow and then fill in just the bottom part of the brow then we can work from the brows all the way down onto the lid and when we're using a Rimmel concealer and a wet-and-wild primer if your primer is already tinted then just apply it as is if you want to go right underneath the brows as close as you can and also right down across the lid as well and then I just like to use my finger just to kind of blend it in for filling in the brows I'm going to be using this palette which is by Absolut New York with my favorite brush file on canvas which is the eo6 so brows are really personal but my preference is to have a darker on the outer edge and then lighter on the inner corner so this is going to be a neutral eye makeup look because neutrals never date there's different variations within neutral palettes so you just want to make sure that it works with your undertone the outfit that you're wearing your lipstick in your blush you want to make sure tall work really well together but to start with you want to apply a neutral base all over the lid this is for two reasons one it will set what we've already applied into it will give us something to blend to it so it will be powder type of powder powder over powder blends really well rather than powder over cream which doesn't so taking the f13 I'm going to apply the matte eyeshadow from this palette all over the lid and you don't have to be too precise about it just walk it all over taking that flat brush from earlier which is the eo4 we're going to apply a mixture of the space shade and then a little bit of the pink highlighter and we're just going to apply this right underneath the brows the reason I went to the pink highlighter is because this look is going to be slightly more pink toned but if you're going for that golden look choose the golden highlighter instead taking the EO one I'm going to apply it that warm mid-tone right on this outer corner wiggle it around a little bit and then blend it back and forth so you want to bring this up a little bit higher than your lid when your eyes are open this should slightly peak above it and that's why it's good idea to start in the outer corner and then open your eyes and bring it back and forth and I haven't picked up any more product I'm still working what I've already applied and you don't want to blend this up too high like the halfway point between your lid and your brow bone that's where you want to apply it and I'm keeping the handle quite low just like this so it's kind of going upwards but now we're going to change positions because what we're going to do is going to mix up a little bit of this color and that base shade that we've already applied and you're going to tilt your hand upwards so before we were down here now we're going to tilt it slightly upwards and just work into the crease again and what this will do is create a softer finish and I'm slightly pulling this out on the outer edge you're better off having a little bit hanging over the edge so when you clean up you'll get a nice sharp line you really want to keep your eye shadows within this point so corner of the nose carve the eye corner of the brow you really want to keep your eye shadows within here but don't worry about it because we will be cleaning it up in a second you can just see the shape that we've created we've kind of left this inner corner here free and we're focused mostly on this outer corner and then up into the crease now this is as far as we want to blend any eye shadow we're working down remember this is our base line don't go past this base line so our next eye shadow is going to be a black and that's going to be really deep in this grease or any of the darker eye shows that you want to use you're going to fly this with a small pencil brush like this and we're going to apply this really deep into this corner and into the crease holding in the center of the brush to give us lots of control would be very careful with black eyeshadow put your index finger on this part here and then softly blend it so I had my eyes closed for most of that but I had my other eye open and I kind of wiggled it just on this outer third and then I want to open my eye and see where the positioning is and then bring it slightly more into the crease to just about the halfway point of the eye so we have our nice kind of C shape almost on this outer edge and then we're just going to blend it into the crease a little bit more there's nothing on this brush but this is what we use to apply this eye shadow so it will blend for us really nicely bringing all the way over to the inner corner and this won't bring all of that black over there it will just give us a hint of color because we're not applying we're blending that's a few things you have to remember you have to remember how you're holding the brush how high your hold in the brush and the fact that you're applying versus blending taking a flat brush in a dark pink eyeshadow we're going to apply this on the outer third and slightly over that black I'm holding it right in the center I've got my index finger on the top of the brush and I'm going to Pat this over the top of that black and this will add a little bit more tone to this look and we're bringing it a little bit further into that inner corner but really still focusing on the outer half to outer third I'm going to switch that blending brush and just soften it out in the center
