Bright Mermaid Eyes

Hi Bellas,

With the cold of Winter swiftly surrounding us, I was getting a little bored of doing darker, muted tones of makeup for the season. Instead, I just wanted to do something bold and pretty. I spent most of my life in Orlando, FL where I honestly did not follow the seasons what so ever. I wore tropical colors and open toed shoes year round. Here in Atlanta, you can see the seasons change so I had to adapt to this kind of culture.

Still, I like to break the rules sometimes and do something fun. Bright colors instantly cheer me up. I decided mermaid inspired colors...teals, purples, blue greens. I packed on the shadow with a flat eyeshadow brush to make sure that the colors applied as intensely as possible.

Without further ado, here's the tutorial!

Here's What I Used (All MAC unless otherwise specified):

EYES
-MUFE no 92 eyeshadow
-aquadisiac e/s
-brill e/s
-cool heat e/s
-solid side of sea and sky mineralized e/s duo
-Revlon colorstay liquid liner in blackest black
-kohl pencil in smolder
-Ardell Wispies
-Smashbox Iconic mascara
-Rimmel professional brow pencil in hazel

FACE
-select cover-up concealer NW35
-studio tech foundation NC42
-CRC translucent powder
-coppertone blush
-format blush (contour)
-albatross highlighter

LIPS
-umm can't remember!
