Rainbow Liner EOTD & FOTD :D


Hey Everyone! :)
So todays post is a quick Eye & Face of the day. I was in a colourful kind of mood today so I decided to do some rainbow liner using my 120 palette I got on Ebay a while ago, so I pretty much had all the eyeshadows colours I wanted to play with in one place without rooting through my makeup stash :)

And below is how the look turned out:







I was happy with the way it turned out :D I didn't really put any shadow on my lower lash line, except for a little bit of light gold in the inner corner, as my eyes have been really sensitive and running all over the place lately. And also there was a lot of colour used on the upper lash line which I wanted the focus of the look to be anyway, so I just went with a really light pink almost flesh colour on the waterline too. I tight lined the upper lash line too to add a bit more definition. I went with a really light pink blusher and then a bright medium pink lip.


The Products I Used Were:


Eyes
Two Faced Shadow Insurance.
NYX Jumbo Pencil in Milk to outline the winged liner shape I wanted to achieve, and also as a base to make the brighter colours I was placing on top more vibrant.
A mixture of bright colours from a 120 eyeshadow palette (pictured and highlighted below).
Sephora Long Lasting Liquid Eyeliner in Glittering Black along the upper lash line.
Avon Supershock Gel Eyeliner in Black on upper waterline.
Astor Eye Pencil in 04 Manga Pink on lower waterline.
Daniel Sandler Baby Jet Mascara in Black.


I used the yellow, green, turquoise, blue from the bottom layer of the palette first (1st picture below), then used the purple from the top layer of this palette and finally the light gold (2nd picture below) just on the inner corner of the lower lash line. I made sure to blend the eyeshadows into each other a little on the lash line to so there was a soft gradient into the next colour.



Face
L'Oreal Studio Secrets Smoothing resurfacing Primer.
Revlon Photo Ready Foundation in 002 Vanilla.
ELF Studio Blush in Gotta Glow as a higlighter.
ELF Mineral Blush in Pink.
ELF Studio Eyebrow Kit in Medium.
NYX Eyebrow Marker in Medium.


Lips
Rimmel 1000 Kisses Lipliner in Indian Pink.
Manhattan Soft Mat Lipcream in 54L (and that is how matte is spelt on the packaging).


Let me know what you think in the comments, or if your going to try it yourself. :)
Much Love
xoxo
