Bird Inspired Look


















This look was inspired by birds particularly parrots, I absolutely love the amazing colors that these ones had.
I use four colors, Yellow from M.A.C, Lime green, Dark green and Red eye shadows from the Coastal scents.
I also used black gel liner by Bobbie Brown and false eye lashes.
I also used four Sigma brushes to create this look the SS219, SS217, SS194 and SS266

This was a really fun look to do I hope you enjoy, If you have any questions on this look just ask I'll be glad to help you out

Camera ready Makeup





































This is what I do every time I do a makeup tutorial or go for a photo shoot.
This is only the base to make your face camera ready and to prevent shinny spot in you pictures and to get rid of any dark spots and blemishes.
I used smashbox camera ready full coverage foundation all over the face then I used Stay don't Stray by Benefit to prime my eyes.
I set my foundation with Get Even by Benefit witch is a translucent powder to reduce shine.
I used bene tint cheek stain by Benefit to add a little bit of rose to my cheeks.
That's about it
The rest is up to you.








Sigma contest entry

I did this look for the Sigma Makeup Animal Inspired Contest.
I found this amazing picture of a fish and I had to recreate it as an eye makeup tutorial.


I used three basic colors, light pink, dark pink and white
I covered my whole eye lid with a white cream liner and buffed it out with a brush and then I started adding shimmer eye shadow.
so in the inner corner and outer corner of my eye I used the light pink and left the middle part white. then I added a darker shade of the pink in the very inner corner of my eye and the very outer corner of the eye to add dimension.
Then I uses a white pinkish color for the middle of the eye lid.
I did a line of black eye liner and a few dots on the outer corner of the eye.
Then I put fake eyelashes and one dark pink rein-stone to finish the look .
