MAKEUP MONDAY: SUNRISE INSPIRED EYE LOOK

There’s nothing I love more than getting out for a walk as the sun is rising for the day. It’s a moment of peace. A time when there are very little people around and I can reflect on my own thoughts uninterrupted by the distraction of life. What do you love about sunrise? Or do you prefer sunset?

Here I have created a sunrise inspired eye makeup look using my new bhCosmetics Take Me Back to Brazil palette that is filled with beautiful VIBRANT colors. A sunrise brightens up any day so I’ve paired two of my favorite liquid Benefit highlighters to achieve a bright, glow filled look that sure to catch the sun.

TO ACHIEVE THIS LOOK

Eyes:
+Using the M433 blending fluff brush I lightly tapped the shade Dawn in my ABH Subculture palette and applied this as a base sweeping it along my lid, crease and up to my brow bone.
+Using the M330 brush I lightly tapped into the shade Eden in my ABH Prism palette and applied this along my outer lid in a backward C sweeping motion up slightly above my crease.
+Using the M321 brush I lightly dipped into the eden shade and then went into the neon orange shade in my BH Cosmetics palette. I applied this along my crease.
+Using the M330 brush I went into the shade Saturn in my ABH Prism palette and lightly dusted this along my outer lid and crease blending it slightly outward towards my brow bone.
+Using the Morphe flat concealer brush I cut the crease with my Kat Von D concealer, patting out extra product along my lid with my finger. I then went back into the neon orange shade and generously applied this all along my lid. I also cleaned up the outer 1/4 of my brow bone using the concealer and applied it outside my tear duct as well as all along my lower lash line.
+Using an angled eyeliner brush I generously took the shade Saturn and mixed it with the vibrant red in the bh cosmetics palette. I then took this along my outer upper and lower lash line extending it outward like a dramatic cat eye.
+Using the M321 brush I generously dipped into the neon orange shade and applied this along the center of my lower lash line. Following this I went into the neon yellow shade in the BH Cosmetics palette and generously applied this all along my outer brow bone, inner lash line, tear duct and inner lid.
+I blended the look out using both the M330 and M433 brush.
+I finished this eye look by adding a hint of tarte highlight in shade Stunner outside my tear duct, lower lash line and brow bone. Lastly applying a bit of L’Oréal Lash Paradise mascara.

Foundation:
+Using a damp Morphe blender I have mixed 3/4 parts Nars sheer glow foundation with Kay Von D’s lock it foundation and tapped all over face until evenly blended. I followed this by applying the Kat Von D concealer in long sweeping motions starting near my inner year duct. I continued this motion from the same spot in a fan shape starting near my nose until reaching my lower lash line.
+I have applied the Kat Von D concealer along the arch of my nose, between brows through center forehead, center of chin and Cupid’s bow.

Highlight:
+Taking my Benefit Cosmetics High beam liquid highlighter and just using my good ol’ finger, I applied small dots of the product along each place I set my concealer (excluding undereye) then lightly dabbed and blended out in a tapping motion. I finished the highlight by lightly sweeping a Tarte Highlight in shade Stunner with a fan highlight brush.

​Contour:
+Taking my Benefit sun beam liquid contour/highlight I applied this just below my cheek highlight under my cheekbones, in a c motion up through my temples and to the outer corners of my forehead near my hairline. I blended using my Sigma extreme contour structure brush since I applied a greater amount of product.
+Using my Sigma spotlight duster I lightly dipped into the shade Hoola Lite and swept this along each area I applied the liquid contour. Slowly and lightly building it up to get a more defined, dramatic look taking the shade along my cheeks as well.

Brows:
+Using the Benefit precision pencil I kept with my natural brow shape and in a light sweeping motion did hair like “tick” marks in the areas where I am missing hair or need more definition. I set them in place using my Benefit gimmie brow+ product.
