All About the Eyes: The Forbidden Fruit

Driving on the way to laguna, the idea of making a new post for my blog sprung up. The inspiration of the forbidden fruit came along from the lush greens and trees which surrounds our family's rest house and farm. The objective was to create smoldering and irresistible eyes which resembled the forbidden fruit in the garden of Eden. This captivating look is perfect for a night out clubbing or partying.

 Procedure

1. Prime your face with a pore minimizing primer. I'm using Maybeline's pore eraser. This product is one I would highly recommend for it's pore concealing action.

2. Conceal your face at the bottom of your eyes, the corners of your nose and your lips and over all your imperfections. Blend till the concealer has camouflaged your blemishes. The concealer that was used is Muji's concealer stick

3. Apply your foundation around face and neck very evenly. Foundation used was Maybeline's pressed foundation.

4. Apply the cream colored/lightest eyeshadow over your brown bone and eyelid. This serves as your base.

5. From the inner corner of your eyes to the middle portion, go from your lightest gold to your darkest gold. Blend to preference

6. Apply the purple hues light to dark to the outer corner of your eye and blend to preference. Contour the lid of your eye with the darkest purple. Eyeshadow palette used was E.l.f. And Victoria's Secret

7. Line your eyes very thickly. Go for what your want. The thicker the line, the more your eyes pop. Line the botom line of your eyes and connect it to the thick liner on the top of your eyes. Eye liner used was Maybeline's pen liner. Highly recommendable product. Our model swam with the eyeliner on and it hardly came off!

8. Highlight the bridge of your nose and apples of your cheeks. Bronze the corners of your jaw, the bottom of your cheekbones and the sides of your forehead. Highlighter and bronzer used are bothe Victoria's Secret

9. Apply a very light pink or nude lipstick and lipgloss for that extra shine
