Easy Subtle Smokey Eye


Hey Guys,

Today's look i tried out a very subtle smokey eye look thats super easy and wearable during the day and can be transformable to a night time look! I'm going to be focusing on the day time look for this post"

1. Apply an all over wash of the desired colour you want, i did a simple light shimmery colour from MAC called Naked Lunch

2. Defined my crease lightly with a soft brown colour any brown will due

3. Line your upper lash line with a black eyeliner i used Milani Liquid Eye Pencil, its creamy and blend able. Look for a liner like this for this look, something like Urban Decay's 24/7 eyeliner.


4. Using a smudging brush start smudging the liner up, concentrate on the outer corner of the eye. Bring the smudging up and start creating a V shape in the corner of the eye.
                                           


Its a very subtle light smokey eye but makes it look like you worked hard on it, when actually its super easy and fast!








5. Finish it off with mascara and i also connected it with a light liner on the bottom lashes but only in the outer corner.


And done! its super easy and subtle and super wearable during the day time!

Hope you enjoyed it :)

Hearts,
Yara

Fall makeup tutorial






Heyyyyy
Who's happy for the cooler weather??? I am! It's sweater season yayyy! 
The temperature is decreasing and the color intensity is increasing! And with this look I'm creating a sexy sultry smokey eye with two great colors; grey and purple. 
If you have brown eyes then this tutorial will look so amazing because purple compliments the brown eyes;) 
So lets begin...
I'm using this palette from topshop has two champagne-y colors and an eggplant purple and grey. Super fall! 
The makeup i used

Of course before all the eye makeup you prep your face up with your normal foundation routine. I just applied concealer and used a purple-y cream shadow base. 
I began with concentrating on the crease and started applying the purple shade. Starting from the outer corner of the eye and making a v-shape extending it from the corner of the eye into the crease. Keep blending it out creating a soft smokey effect. 
Next I took the grey shade and applied a little onto the purple darkening it up. Keep applying both shades to reach your desired shade. 
Next I applied the champagne color onto my lid and the lightest color onto my eyebrow bone to highlight. 
Finish off with a light liner on the upper lash line and bottom. And apply mascara 

For the face I kept it simple, chose my favourite dark-ish shade of blush by MAC 
And I also softly contoured my face with benefit hoola bronzer 

For lips I kept it simple as well, lined my lips with a natural lip color and used a neutral lipstick color.

That's pretty much the makeup look something super pretty to wear at night or even during the day! You have the control on how far you want to take your makeup! 

Yara ❤
