Eye Look #1: Mac's Smut! And Giveaway Winner!


 

    A simple and 'easy' look for a night out! Using 3 Mac Eyeshadows and Inglot's Gel Liner in Black, no. 77. A gorgeous look for blue eyes, really makes them pop. 
    Mac's Eyeshadow in 'Smut' is fast becoming a go-to Eyeshadow for any night out for me. A gorgeous rich, grey with purple flecks running through it, really makes any eyeshadow look pop. Looks gorgeous also when blending out eyeshadow under the eye. It is also a great alternative to black or brown when you want to use something new for a change.

                                      
    I placed 'Smut' along the socket line and on the outer third of the eye and using a Mac 217 and 224 blending brushes, lightly buffed out the edges the shadow. I then placed Mac's 'Kid' shadow, a gorgeous light ashy brown shadow,along the edge of the 'smut' shadow and blended out the edges again. This helps to make sure that the shadow fades away nicely, as I hate shadow that just abrupty ends. I then placed Mac's 'Brulee' eyeshadow on the lid and blended the two nicely together. Then Liner and Lashes and you are set for a night out.
    I chose to just bring 'Smut' under my eye with no liner but to make this a smokier look, simply add liner onto the waterline and blend out with shadow. Easy Peasy.

   Most people will ask how you do liner, the best answer I can give you is simply to practice. It is easy for me to give you steps but at the end of the day if you don't practice the art then you will never perfect it as it is not something that will come naturally!
Products Used; Liner, 'Smut', 'Kid' & 'Brule'.

    Has anyone else tried 'Smut'? What are your feelings on this?
Let me know if you would like to see a step-by-step photo look on this, if it would make it easier!! :)

'till next time!
