MakeupLoveer Contest entry



When thinking of summer I think of..the sky. I took this picture over my house..the sky was so blue and the reason the ball of clouds look so bright is because the sun is behind them :) Waking up in the morning and seeing a few white clouds alongside the piercing blue sky and the sun peeping through makes me happy :)
This is what I did to try an represent it. I'm so sorry the pictures looks rubbish I've tried so many times to try and get them looking good but I don't think it's going to happen and if I attempt again the date will run out :( Also, I'm looking awful!
I used Blues for the sky, White for clouds and Yellow for sun :)

This is what I used:
Vital Radiance Primer
Sleek CHAOS557 Palette
Sleek ORIGINAL 594 palette
Collection 2000 Dazzle Me! in Bedazzle 8
2True twist 'n' Line Eye Definer in White
Everything else was kept really neutral and summery like :)




What I did:
Firstly primed the eye to the brow bone. I then applied the light blue shade from CHAOS across half of the lid focusing the colour on the outer corner and blending inward. Then I applied the light blue from ORIGINAL, they look quite similar but it has the most gorgeous sheen to it. Again blending inwards with the main focus on the outer corner. Then applied a little of the dark blue into the crease to add some definition and shape. I applied the white eyeliner into the inner corner and smudged it upwards into the light shades of blue. Then, using the white from the CHAOS palette I blended out any harsh edges and used it to the brow bone. Lastly, I used Collection 2000 Dazzle Me! in Bedazzle 8 under the eye. I wanted this to be used for the sun and I wasn't sure if it worked but it really made the blues stand out :) I wouldn't usually go for blues but I was really pleased with how it turned out and how it looked against my skin.


Thanks for a great contest Louise, good luck everyone :)
