Another Blue Look?!?

Oh, how I love my blue colors!  Here is another blue look, much more dramatic than what I usually do (if possible!)
I looked really tan on this pic for some reason!  It may have been the bronzer that I was using.  Here is how I did my eyes...
~ I started with the usual...Too Faced Eye Insurance and then NYX eye pencil in Milk. Patted those on separately, in that order.
~ Then I used a pale whitish cream color on my inner corner of my lids.
~ Next, I used a blue from my BH Cosmetics Palette #1 (3rd from the right on row 1) and patted on my entire lid (minus the outer corner (where the black will go)
~ After that, I used the black on the same palette (1st row of second part of palette, last one) and patted it heavily on my outer lid, following my crease as well as towards my lower lid (making it smokey).
~ Then I took a fluffy brush and blended the line between the blue and black (not really messing with the blue too much)
~ When I was finished with the blending, I took a black eye pencil and lined my upper lid winging it out on the outer part of my lid, then lined my lower lashes.
~ Lastly, I finished it up with Flasies mascara in black.
Again, I appreciate you stopping by and hope you got something out of it!  
Much Love!

In the Caribbean

I was trying to create a different look than what I created, but I am diggin' this...it turned out looking like I took these colors straight from my surroundings while sitting in the Caribbean. (I wish!)
I also tried to clean up those things that I call eyebrows as well.  If you have noticed, I just did everything around the brows and didn't mess with them. So here is the first time I tried working on them.
~First, I applied Too-Faced Shadow Insurance to my whole lid, then took a lime green loose eyeshadow (generic brand-got it on Ebay) and patted it on the inner corner of my lid.
~Then I took a lavender color and patted it right next to the lime green (just a little to show the color next to the green)
(4th from top)
~After that, I placed a bright blue in the middle of my lid
(3rd from bottom)
~Then I took the pink from the same stack above (4th from top) and dusted that from my crease and faded it up, stopping at my brow bone.
~ Lastly, I took a color I just purchased from Fyrinnae (Wicked) which is a beautiful purplish-blue color and swept that on my crease, from the blue and overlapping some of the pink (I found out that pink does NOT look good on me by itself!)
~Then I blended the colors, from lightest to darkest, but not much, for I wanted to show all the colors.
~After that, I applied black gel liner to my upper lids, and on my water line on my lower lid, then applied black mascara by Maybelline-Falsies.
~Then I swept a little bronzer on my cheeks and down my nose.



I hope you like it....I had a lot of fun doing this look! Thanks for stopping by!
