Smokey Valentine's Tutorial


Today I made a valentine's tutorial, a smokey/sultry one as requested. Maybe next year I will do a soft, more natural look. The look is a smokey eye with a violet accent. Here is a list of the products I used to get this look, plus a description of what it is so that you can find dupes or find the actual products if you don't already have them.
(Not shown:) Face: -Rimmel Fix and Perfect Primer, -L'oreal TruMatch Foundation in W2, -Laura Geller Real Deal concealer in Light, -Clinique Loose powder, MAC matte eyeshadow in Brun(eyebrows)

Demonstrated:
ELF studio blush in Candid Coral-a neutral glowy blush
Maybelline shimmer eyeshadow single in Vanilla-used as a sheen cheekbone highlight
Urban Decay eyeshadow Primer potion-basic eye base
Maybelline color tattoo cream eyeshadow in Painted Purple-color base for our vibrant eyeshadow
Covergirl Eyeshadow single in 575 FRVR FG-whatever that means-plummy lid highlight color
Urban Decay Naked 2 pallete: busted, blackout and bootycall- plummy brown, matte black, light sheen highlight for browbone (can be replaced by maybelline vanilla eyeshadow)
Clinique Quickliner in Really Black-blendable long-wearing pencil eyeliner
L'oreal Voluminous Mascara Carbon Black
Urban Decay lipgloss in Naked-sheer nude lipgloss(seriously just go with your natural lip color, its beautious)

I only used ELF brushes in this video, some were the studio brushes, one was a pro brush and one was a mineral brush.

This look should look good on everyone, but it will especially enhance green/brown/hazel eyes! If you have blue eyes, try using pink instead of purple! That would look great as well!

Happy Valentinies Day! I hope you all feel loved :)
