Exotic Eyes

Hey everyone. So yesterday I did a shoot for a designer & the theme was Caribbean Carnival.  I had a lot of fun doing the model's make-up so I thought this would be a great look to teach you how to achieve.  For this look I will be using:

MAC Paint Pot- Paintlery
NK Eye Crayon- Pearl
Sephora Brush- Shadow/Smudge (used the 'shadow' side)
MAC Eyeshadow- Yogurt
MAC Brush- 217
Urban Decay Eyeshadow Shadow Box Pallete (Graffiti, Peace, and Fishnet)
MAC Eyeshadow- Mylar
Posh Brush- Angled Eyeshadow Brush (from K-Mart)
MAC Fluidline- Blacktrack (Gel Eyeliner)
MAC Brush- 266
Too Faced Lash Injection Mascara
Bare Escentuals Buxom Lash Mascara
Sephora Lip Gloss- Bronzed Beauty

I hope you enjoy this look!  It is great for fun colorful outfits, going out at night, or enjoying a beautiful day!  The main ingredient in this look is the Urban Decay Eyeshadow Shadow Box.  The colors are super beautiful, bright, shimmery, and easy to blend.  However, you will definitely need to use a primer to achieve the same brightness you see when they are in the palette.  

Remember, you can always email me for immediate tips/advice & to make requests at LooksByLidia@gmail.com.  Emails get send directly to my phone & you will hear back from me right away no matter where I am!
