Quick and Dirty: Smoky Turquoise and Black Eye


When I say quick and dirty, I really mean quick and dirty. You will need a 
  • white/beige/pale-yellow liner (matte), 
  • false lashes or mascara, 
  • a deep charcoal grey matte shadow, and 
  • a satiny deep-turquoise blue.


Step 1: Apply the dark moss-grey matte shade in an upright triangle at the outer corner of the eyes. (Basically, do your outer V and then fill it in.)

Step 2: Apply a rich jewel-blue to the rest of the lid, within the socket area. Be sure to pack on the color rather than sweeping and swirling your brush, for maximum intensity.

 Step 3: Finally, run the moss-grey shadow generously along the lower lash line, apply false lashes (optional), black mascara to top and bottom lashes, and then gently line the waterline with a pale matte pencil to finish.

Make Up Store Microshadow in Moss (dark matte grey with an olive lean)
