The Eye Look You Guys Keep Bugging Me For
um so i'm gonna film the eye look that i was wearing in my last couple of videos uh i don't know exactly when i'm uploading this one but it was this guy right here if you can see that just a just a quick serve uh so it's from my lisa eldridge um like how to wear red lips video and um basically everyone commented and was like what about the eyes though and it was super easy so uh we're gonna do that today i already primed i have been using the urban decay uh original eyeshadow priming potion so that's what i have on my eyes right now and i've really been liking it all right for my eyeshadow palette i'm going to be using i've got lipstick all over but i'm using the stone cold fox palette from colourpop which first of all i love the palette it's matte uh and it's got like this pebbled almost i guess it's mostly pebbled it's almost like snake skin but it's just like a bunch of more cool toned nudes you know shimmers and everything but what i like about this palette is that they're not like too gray so it's a very friendly neutral palette uh it's a little bit more cool tone there's some like more movie shades but there's enough like warmth there's a lot of diversity in this palette and i highly recommend it like i love it so much um okay so basically for this look i was trying to kind of like emulate what people like patrick todd do on their models um patrick taw mario the other guy ariel all of those makeup artists i was trying to emulate like how tdo eyeshadow makeup eye shadow makeup and typically it has a lot to do with like really contouring the eye um eye socket so that's what we're gonna do uh the key to this i think is using smaller brushes so i have been talking a lot recently about brushes and brush sizes um but to get a really really good contour you wanna use something that's gonna be a little bit smaller so it's not going to go all over the place i'm trying to remember exactly like how i did this because i was kind of just like experimenting so i'm going to start off with the mac uh 217 brush um anything will do anything for morphe whatever i'm going to start off by mixing these two shades because this one is a little bit too light i'm pretty sure those are like the only colors that i used so i'm gonna start off by mixing those just by like tapping back and forth focusing on like the tip of the brush and then what i'm going to do is looking down into a mirror i'm going to focus the pigment like basically just following my eye socket and i'm going to build it up really really lightly but the way i'm going to be doing this differently than i usually do my eye shadow is i'm kind of like following my eye socket second my eye socket all the way around so i'm actually going to be bringing it in here as well so i'm really contouring like following the contour of my eye socket so bringing it in here but i don't want to take it in like here too much i'm not trying to make this like super duper dramatic or high glam or anything like that i'm really just creating um more of a shadow and then i'm gonna kind of like bring it down like that at the end um i didn't really i kind of like did a little bit of blending out but i didn't do that like cat eye sort of sweep that i usually do and i'm just going to start off by like slowly building up the pigment in that area and i'm holding my brush like this because it gives me a little bit more like precision so i'm using a light hand because sometimes if you hold your brush like that it can create like a harsher line up here you can also use your brush like this not that you can really see that but point it downward which is going to create a little bit more of a harsh line going whichever way the tip is pointing basically but i just find that to be like a little bit more difficult for me so light hand into the inner corner once i have that i'm gonna turn my brush so that it's sideways and i'm just going to sort of blend and deepen this area up a little more i keep leaning like that it's really important that you look down into a mirror because it's going to help you maintain that precision you want to keep all of that skin like as flat as you possibly can otherwise you can get skipping if you feel like you're having a hard time blending make sure you're looking down into a mirror all right now i'm going to pick up a slightly smaller brush i believe i used when i did this i'm pretty sure i used this um wayne goss number 19 brush but a great dupe for that is i mean they're not exactly the same but um is the morphe m456 brush which is just kind of like a smaller blending brush basically and i'm just going to pick up the like more medium brown i'm not going to mix it anymore and i'm going to focus on the tip of that brush and i'm going to just really focus this like right in that crease so just building up that contour a little more i'm gonna take that other brush just like wipe it off kind of go and blend all around that um okay so for the lid uh i first this is a little complicated because i first went in with lux which is this like matte cream shade right here but it ended up being like way too light and i ended up going in i think over top with uh this guy right here the one that we um mixed that this brown with quiet please so what brush did i use so i'm gonna use the sigma e54 brush medium sweeper and i'm gonna go in with lux i'm just gonna do it exactly the way that i did it that time and i basically just like popped this all over the lid all the way to the inner corner so i started a little bit lower and then kind of brought it up and met that crease just above where my like skin folds naturally this isn't a cut crease though clearly so it's just a little bit softer okay and so i wasn't wild about that so what i ended up doing was taking um just my original brush and going in with uh that like taupey shade which is trip the lightest one loaded up my brush and then i basically just kind of blended all over it so i went over the cream into the contour just kind of blended it all together which you can see just kind of like softened everything and toned down that cream it made it a little bit more like natural looking this is just a little too stark for my skin i think so starting off by like patting it all over the cream and then blending it out um okay so then for the lower lash line i basically did what i uh did in the crease you know like mixed those two colors together and just blended that out um and for that i'm going to use this e26 from colourpop basically covering my eye bag i just basically want to shade this area because it pops out and i don't like the way that looks so i like to push it back in space that's really the only reason that i do that so it's basically the same concept as applying the shade in my crease i'm just pushing this back in space so doing some eye contouring that's really it um okay for my waterline uh i did like kind of a half thing so i did a nude on the outer portion of my eye and then
