Follow her a step-by-step guide on how to achieve this look.

Step 1 – firstly the lashes must be curled, and then powdered with MYMATCH POWDER – this will take the grease off the eye area and build up on the lashes to thicken the, Pat MYCOVER CONCEALER all over the eyelids, up to the eyebrows, and under the bottom lashes again, set liberally with powder.

Step 2 – with a HIGH DEF EYE PENCIL (use black for dark hair and brown for hair fair) scribble and press the liner in between the upper and lower eyelashes as many times as needed to create desired density, don’t come too high on the lid, just very focused and layered also covering the base of the lashes themselves.

Step 3 – the upper and outer corner of the eye socket should then be marked off with the BROWN HIGH DER PENCIL. With your little finger blend BLINGTONE SP’ICE’Y over the pencil keeping it in the socket. Above the socket blend BLINGTONE MOROCOCO up to the brows. To finally pop the eye, liberally apply BLING TONE EYESHADOW GILT-Y over the center of the eyelid.

Step 4 – to strengthen the eyebrows, scribble matt brown eye shadow from the EYETOUCH TRIO IN A WHOE LATTE LOVE back and forth on the eyebrows. To finish off push brows in the opposite directions and set with a dot of hairspray on your fingertip, which also makes them glossy.

Step 5 – using UPLOAD LASHES MASCARA, go into the base of the lashes easing inner lashes inwards, the middle lashes upwards, and the outer lashes outwards, using the end of the wand if necessary.
