Smoky Eye & Nude Lip Makeup Tutorial

Step 1. Using a dense brush (Crown 415 Deluxe Sable Shader), apply Foxy Eyeshadow from Anastasia She Wears It Well Eyeshadow Palette on the entire eyelid.

To complete the look, I also cleaned up the undereye area with a brush dipped with Make Up For Ever HD Invisible Cover Foundation in #127. Then I dusted MAC Mineralize Skinfinish in Star Wonder high on the cheeks and added Anastasia Barely HydraFull Gloss from the Birthday Suit Set on the lips. Done!

    what kind of contacts are you wearing? it’s pretty

    • Reply Phyllis July 21, 2012 at 12:36 am

      Thanks! It’s Freshlook Colorblends in Hazel. They are the most fool-proof color contacts for Asian eyes IMO 🙂
