Mysterious make up look | colab with BeautyRoes




Me and my friend Rhiannon, decided to set a little make up challenge for each other and this time we chose the theme 'mysterious'. Rhiannon will be posting her version of this look, so click here to check it out. 
When thinking about the theme I began to think of mystical creatures such as vampires, to inspire this look. I thought a purple smoky eye *purple colour does not show up well in the photo* and a red lip would be perfect for a mystical vampiress look. This look was super fun to create and it would be perfect for Halloween and costume parties.

So here is a closeup of the eye make I created and now I will write a tutorial on how you can re create this mystical look:

1) Firstly, prep and prime your face with a primer; I used W7 'prime magic, camera ready' primer. You may also choose to use an eye primer, but if you don't have one just rub your face primer onto your eyelids.
2) Next, find the lightest foundation you have; I used 'Revlon nearly naked' foundation in 'shell' and apply it all over your face. Now apply concealer on all your blemishes, you want to create a flawless look, I used Maybelline 'Fit me' concealer. Next set your foundation with a translucent loose powder, I used Dermablends loose setting powder.


3) For the eye makeup, find a light shimmery eyeshadow and apply it from the inner corner of your eye. Sweep it across just above your crease. For this look I used the MUA 'glitterball' palette.


4) Next, find a shimmery purple eyeshadow and sweep it across your lid with a fluffy brush and blend it outwards.






5) Now, find the blackest black you can find and apply it to your outer crease, with a fluffy brush, in light circular motions. Make sure you blend it in really well.



 

6) To Finnish the eye makeup find a white colour to use as a highlight and apply it under your brow bone.
7) To Finnish the look off, take a red lipstick or gloss and apply it to your lips. The darker, the better.


So that is the finished look and don't forget to check out my friend Rhiannon's blog post here . I hope you enjoyed this post and please comment down below if you want to see more makeup challenges.
