New Years Eve Makeup Tutorial

New Years Eve Makeup Tutorial

Hello everyone and welcome back to my blog! It’s almost New Years Eve, and have I got a makeup tutorial for you! The look turned out so much better than I expected. I wasn’t sure how the Smokey eye would pair with a yellow / gold lid, but it turned out so pretty, if I do say so myself! I had a lot of fun doing this look, I hung out with my daughter and watched spooky shows on Netflix and ate dinner. Right now my hubby is out of town for 5 weeks going through training for trucking. So I’m going to power all of my sadness into my blog posts! Let’s get into this thing!

To start out this look I used the Hard Candy Eyeshadow Primer and as always, set it with a matte cream shade (Clarity) to create an even blending surface. Going into the crease with a natural fiber blending brush I picked up a creamy orange shade (buttercup) and fluffed it through the crease building depth. To deepen the crease and add dimension I blended in some brick red (Terracotta) in as well. The end result doesn't doesn’t show much of the warm tones, but it definitely helped create a good hazy blend. Now for the Smokey tones, I went in with a brownish black (silhouette) and just darkened everything up. I took the dark shade in pretty far. I wanted to create a lot of depth and sexiness. For the sparkly golden yellow lid, I took my eye shadow primer and applied it to my lid from inner corner to two thirds out. I then used my finger and patted on the Ulta Glitter Top Coat in Gold Digger, all over the primer so it’ll stick. These glitter shades need a sticky base or they'll fall off and go everywhere. That’s the eye look done, with winged liner, pencil liner and mascara added to finish!
