Blue Bronze Eye Look

Today evening I quickly tried this look









And I used the following products



MAC Painterly as the base
NYX jumbo pencil in Yogurt in inner corner
Inglot Bronzy eyeshadow all over the lid ( I tried to get the eye shadows out to read the number but I couldn't do it)
Inglot Blue eyeshadow in the outer portion of the lid
Using the same brush(I used Inglot 9S) blend the eye shadows
Now,pick MAC Embark in the crease brush and apply in it crease and the outer corner
Again blend it
Pick MAC Texture eyeshadow on a blending brush and use this as transition color

Then using a flat eyeshadow brush, take some MAC Embark again and run it along the lower lashline. And then pick Inglot blue eye shadow and run it on top of Embark. What this does is that it gives some depth to the blue eyeshadow.

Then line the upper lash line with black Kohl.I used Himalaya Kajal.
Finish off with Mascara and filling eyebrow with NARS Bali.

Post done, now off to taking of the eye makeup...

Kareena Inspired look

Before, I start writing about the look, let me say this, 'You won't find a person more lazy than me'. I procrastinate like anything. My computer drive is full with pictures, and I am just putting it off for later. But, not any more.

With rambling out of the way,lets start with this look. While browsing through Indian Celebs pictures, I chanced on this snap of Kareena...and just loved the look of it..very classy and simple look



I tried to recreate the look with the products I had at home.

Eyes

MAC Painterly Pot as the base
Any loose powder to smoothen it
MAC Texture all over the eyelid, till the crease
Any dark brown eyeshadow in the outer corner and over upper lash line.
While working in the crease, do it light handed as we aren't doing a complete smokey look
Using a flat brush( I used Inglot 9S ) pick the same dark brown eyeshadow and run it along the lower lash line
Using same flat brush pick up some matte black eyeshadow (I used MAC Carbon) and run it along the upper and lowe lash line.
Using a black kohl( I used Chanel Kohl) line you upper lash line and the waterline
Fill in the eyebrows (I used NARS Bali)
Finish it off with black mascara





Face

NARS Sheer glow in Barcelona as the foundation.
NARS Bronzer Laguna for contouring
NARS Blush Orgasm ( On side note, this deserves all the love it gets!!!)

I haven't used any highlighter






Lips

I used Dior Addict High Colour 484, Daring Beige




I hope you liked the look...I had fun creating it. Now I know I have a go-to look.
