Applying makeup, Eyeshadow, mascara and eyeliner

/ Analucascardigos / 4 Comments

Hi everyone, and welcome back to my blog

Good eye makeup will accentuate the eyes and make your eye colour stand out. How you apply your makeup is entirely dependent on the look you are going for.

It’s important to learn about the shape of your eyes so you can bring out the best in your features. For example, if your eyes are close-set you may want to use a lighter colour in your inner corners to make them appear further apart.

Before applying eyeshadow, applying a cream eyeshadow base because it creates a beautiful texture and a smooth canvas for  eye makeup.

Always blend your eyeshadow well with a clean fluffy brush across the area  where your eyeshadow ends, to create a flawless finish.

Classic black mascara is best for all occasions but pick your mascara according to the look you want. when applying mascara, don’t pump the wand because this will push air into it and encourage it to dry out.

Work from the base to the tips of the lashes and roll the wand to avoid clamps. always apply from underneath so you don’t weigh down the lashes. Allow the mascara to dry before applying more coats if you want a more dramatic effect.

If you want a softer look, line your eyes with a powder eyeshadow using an angled brush. For a more dramatic look, use a gel or liquid liner to draw a line close to the lash line with a flick at the outer end. For an even more striking look, use a thicker line with a more accentuated flick at the end.

/ Analucascardigos / 9 Comments

Hi everyone , Today’s post is all about my current Makeup Collection.

 

I organised my makeup in the way that’s most comfortable for me – so the things I use most regularly will be close at hand.

I also like to keep it all sorted by category and then arranged in the order that I apply it just to make it easier for myself.

My dressing table is from IKEA.

I love lipsticks, I have more than 100 in my collection 🙂 , my lipstick organizers are from Amazon and IKEA.

This last picture are my eye shadow palettes, not all but most of them are here…. 😉

So that’s my makeup collection, hope you like and if you have any question feel free to comment below; Thanks 🙂

Hi everyone;

Chocolate bar palette comes with 16 matte and shimmer shades of natural browns, delicate pinks and luscious plums.

 

This beautiful assortment of chocolate-inspired shades were formulated using real cocoa powder. Encased in a playful chocolate bar tin, the rich selection of the perfect browns, neutrals, and little pops of color appeal to every candy lover.

Try a neutral smoky eye instead of blacks and grays for a sultry look for day or night using these perfectly selected, chocolate shades.

Apply your favorite shades on lid, crease, or as a powder liner on top and bottom lash line for endless possibilities!

The Chocolate Bar eye shadows are infused with cocoa powder, which makes them smell of chocolate!

  • Can be use for day time & evening looks
  • Super soft and easy to blend
  • Highly pigmented

 

One thing I really like about this palette is the lighter shades are super pigmented.

Have a great weekend everyone 😉 

Thanks
