Lately I've been stuck in the rut with creative colours and looks and this palette have been my ride or die palette this past month.

Along with the palette, I have been loving my good old MAC brushes. although there are more far cheaper,same quality brands out there, I still end up using these a lot. I must say they have been used and abused and still pretty good!

what are your essentials?

5 tips to make your eyes look bigger and brighter

1) Filling in your eyebrows: It frames your face and it can make or break your look :)

2) White eyeliner or even NUDE on waterline instead of Black: Some find white eyeliner harsh and "too out there" Instead, use Nude liner. This instantly brightens and gives the illusion of bigger eyes. Use only black eyeliner on your upper lash line.

3) Highlight and contour: (You're good with 3 eyeshadows)

- Highlight using a bright/shimmery champagne eyeshadow on your inner corner of your eyes, under your eyebrows/brow bone and centre of your eyelid.

- Contour your crease and lower lash line to give your eyes a little bit of definition.

4) Curl your lashes and put on MASCARA!! If i were to only choose 1 product, i would always choose mascara. I cannot stress enough how important it is not to miss this step. I usually have 2-3 coats, rather than having just one coat. (ohh, and wiggle your wand from the bottom working your way up).

5) Do not forget to dab on concealer: Rather than using a concealer that suits your skin tone, use a Salmon-y/pinkish colour (one shade lighter than your skin) that would hide the dark cast under your eyes and cover all of those green/purple veins.

How to: Winged Eyeliner Look/Cat Eye

Hello superfoxies!

  When doing an cat eye /winged liner look, its easier if you practice with GEL eyeliner and an angled brush. Once youve mastered, then we'll move on to liquid liner. (i used MAC's fluid line and eco tool's angled brush)

First line your eyes just like how you normally do. As you can see here, the before and after look on each eye:P

then from the bottom, follow the natural curve and at the end, use it as your guide to angle up your brush. this will help you to have even lines for both eyes. its up to you how high you want it to be, i did mine just medium sized wings.

then connect  and fill in!!

aaaand you're all set!

also, play it up and be different! i added purple too. simply outline the black :)

xo,

Denise
