Saint Valentine's Day - Tutorial 2: Caramel and Berries

Hi everyone! Here I am with the second tutorial for Saint Valentine's day. This time I've chosen some caramel and red tones, for those of you who want to look super sweet :D.





Products I used for this look:

  • Primer Potion in Original by Urban Decay
  • Kohl Kajal eyepencil in a matte white color by Catrice
  • Color Heaven from the palette Natural Eye by Too Faced
  • Inglot Eyeshadows: M335 and S55
  • Eyeshadow Red Carpet from the palette Scurissimi by Neve Cosmetics (basically a dark matte red)
  • Black eyepencil - Collistar 101
  • Gel Liner by Essence in Midnight in Paris
  • Mascara Ultra Tech Curve by Kiko
  • For Eyebrows: Catrice Brow Pencil in Date With Ash-ton
  • For lips: Lipstick by Lime Crime in Glamour 101 + Shaka Lip pencil in a neutral color + Makeup Forever Lip Line Perfector
Create this look step-by-step:
  1. Apply the primer all over your lid
  2. Apply the white eye pencil on the lid and blend it with a brush
  3. Apply the color Heaven all over the white pencil
  4. With a blending brush take Inglot M335 and define your crease
  5. With a smaller brush take Inglot S55 and use it to intensify the inner part of the crease
  6. Now take a matte dark red with a pencil brush and apply just a bit of it in the outer part of the lid
  7. Apply the black pencil to the top waterline and the bottom as well. On the bottom blend the pencil with a pointed brush to obtain a smoky effect.
  8. Apply the gel liner with a precision brush
  9. Apply the mascara
  10. With a neutral lip pencil define the shape of your lips
  11. Take the line perfector and trace the borders. The line perfector is basically a transparent pencil silicon-based that prevents your lipstick from bleeding.
  12. Apply the lipstick. I suggest to help you with a brush to be more precise. NOTE: you want to be extra careful with this lipstick because it bleeds like hell. That's why I put the transparent pencil on the borders. I suggest also to dab a little with a tissue to remove the excess since it's very creamy. If you plan to eat or drink I suggest to go for another lipstick, I used this because I thought the color suited this look well.
And you're done! I hope you enjoyed this tutorial and hope to see you soon!
