New Year's Eve is all about the glam so I wanted to design a look that was big, smokey and full of lashes and sparkle.
Products used
NYX Glam Shadow Stick in Luminous Crystal
Avon Blending Brush
Designer Brands Professional Brush Set Large and Medium sized Brushes
Shader/Smudge Brush (unsure of brand)
Eyes (Part 1)
I decided to do my eyes first as I wanted to be able to clean up any fallout from dark shadows and glitter. I primed my eyes using Australis Eyeshadow Primer. I applied NYX Love in Paris shade 1 all over my lid, 3 in my crease and the corner of my eyes and 6 also in the corner of my eyes. I then blended it all together. Using my NYX Glam Shadow Stick I covered three quarters of my lid and blended it well. Then I took shade 3 in the crease and corner again and blended. With my L'Oreal Paris SuperLiner Perfect Slim I drew a cat eye. I applied my Ardell 120 Demi Black Lashes using my Ardell Lashgrip Adhesive. I then used Maybelline Lash Sensational to combine my lashes.
Face
After cleaning up the fallout, I applied my foundation, concealer, powder, bronzer and blush (described in detail in my Festive Make Up Look). I filled in my brows using Rimmel Professional Eyebrow Pencil and set them with Maybelline Brow Drama. Using shade 4 from NYX Love in Paris Eye Shadow Palette I highlighted my brow bones.
Eyes (Part 2)
Once I finished my face and my under eye area was complete, I took shade 6 along my lower lash line from the outer corner to just in line with my pupil using a shader brush. From the inner corner I used my NYX Glam Shadow Stick and joined it with shade 6. I used shade 4 in my inner corner.
Lips
I kept it simple for my lips, as I wanted the main focus to be my eyes and light colours aren't as obvious if they wear away during your New Year's party. I lined and filled in my lips using Rimmel 1000 Kisses Stay On Lip Liner to make them last and to make my lips less pink toned. I then applied Rimmel Kate Moss Lasting Finish Lipstick in 38. I love the colour combination these two products make! Taking shade 4 again, I highlighted my cupid's bow.
