TBD: Gold Sparkle!
Thursday, May 31, 2012
If you haven't already checked out, or been checking out, thebeautydepartment.com, you should add it to your reader now! I love all the DIY's and tutorials, and this is one that I actually tried recently, with a few differences to tone it down for daytime.
(Sorry for the bad photos - had to take them myself with my iPhone since my sister wasn't around to help! LoL)
I followed the tutorial pretty closely, but used lighter colors for the crease and for the top shadow from my Naked2 palette ("Tease" for the crease and "Suspect" for the "gold shadow" step) for an even subtler daytime look, and went lighter on the eyeliner - I used pencil rather than liquid, and skipped doing the waterline entirely. I did purchase the Jemma Kidd Stardust Cream Shadow in Cosmos that was recommended, and I LOVE it! This is a super easy, gorgeous eye, so I highly recommend you trying it out too! Plus it can take you from day (the way I did it) to night (if you follow the tutorial to a T), and who doesn't love a day-to-night look?
