Poindexter Tutorial! Fun Pink, Orange, and Yellow Look! :)

I did this look a while ago when I thought about starting a youtube channel (which I didn't start haha).
It's just a really colorful, fun look and I'll tell you how I did it! :)
Gosh my eyebrows look soooo ungroomed.....-_-
ANYWAYS! :)
All the colors used came from my 'Profusion Glamifeye 36 Color Eyeshadows Palette' unless otherwise stated.
So....
1) I put eye primer on, you can use any brand that you prefer, I used a homemade one.
2) I put a hot pink cream shadow all over my lid up to my crease and blended out the harsh lines well.
3) Then I packed a hot pink eyeshadow all over my lid up to my crease, to make it really pigmented you can wet your brush first, I didn't though.
4) Then take a yellow color and blend it into your crease in to the pink a bit and also blend it upwards (if that makes sense, need be look at the photo). This should create a really light orange tint inbetween the yellow and the pink.
5) Now take a bright orange color and place it inbetween the two colors to brighten the orange tint.
6) Blend out all harsh lines.
7) Take a black eyeshadow color and blend it into the outer 'V' to give some depth to the look.
8) Blend out the harsh lines again.
9) Add a highlight to your brow bone. I used Model Co. Color Box Shadow in Antiqua.
10) Add a light white color (preferably with a pink undertone) to your inner corner.
11) Line your eyes and add mascara. I used Wet N' Wild Mega Liner in Black, NYC Brow/Liner Pencil in Jet Black and Wet N' Wild Mega Protein Mascara. :)
12) You're done! I'd pair this look up with a nice peach or orange blush and a nude lipstick. :)

Hope you enjoyed this, sorry for no step by step photos....-_-
Fun eye tutorial, Over & Out.

green eyes are fun! :)

Here's my first tutorial ever! I'm so excited, I hope this is pretty explanatory. Swatches and lists of all colors and products used will be at the end. So, this is an extremely simple smokey warm green and brown look, it's really great for people with green eyes, like me! So, let's get started... :)
1. So, of course first you want to prime your eyes. I just used a homemade primer that I made using this tutorial:

2. You want to apply a light lime green color to your lid just using a simple shader brush.



3. Take a crease brush and grab a dark olive green color and put it in your crease from the outer corner all the way to the inner corner.





4. Blend out the harsh lines between the lid color and the crease color and the line between the crease color and the brow bone.
5. Take a golden brown color and put it in your outer 'v' and then bring it halfway into your crease and blend it out. (sorry, no picture)
6. Add your favorite highlight, eyeliner, and mascara.
7. You're done! (see...I told you it was simple!)
