everywhere on runways there was color we all love color
darker skin tones bronze ebony I'm always ask how do I make color show up more
so it is an issue. A lot of the colors you see, the bright colors don't show up much
and its really simple to do. so I'm gonna do what a lot of the season
we're calling on the runways what we call butterfly eye. I'm gonna mix colors
and use more than one color on the eye
so the trick which is very simple and getting color to show up
on pretty much all skin tones but on especially your darker skin tones
first thing to do is issues a lot darker and I'd even do it on this lighter
ebony skin tone is I use a lighter concealer on the eyelid
then on the rest of her face I'm just gonna add some color to it first so by lightening the eye lid
first with the lighter concealer then the rest of her face that are already
starts to brighten and lighten the lid and then everything I paint on top
of it
shows up a little bit brighter second thing I wanna do is I'm gonna use a cream
first before I use before I put my
powder on so I'm gonna use a colored cream and then layer a powder on top of that
okay so I'm gonna take my cream now one of my favorite color combinations
when using color is acid green and purple
so I'm gonna layer an acid green cream on her lid
first cause this is my highlight shade
get a nice amount of that acid green on there
because when I get a layer of my powder on top of it
give it something to stick to
now we're gonna go over it with we're gonna go over it with an acid green powder
I'm gonna pad it on
so we get lots of color
now on the brow bone I don't want have acid green of course
I'm gonna a little bit of a highlight I'm gonna go ahead and just use a
Matte vanilla
just get a nice highlighted brow bone now even though we're doing a lot of color we
need to ground it with a neutral
so I'm gonna uses and nice Matte
mahogany Mid tone
just to start to shape the eye and ground
all that color with my number eleven brush
on her crease
give the eye a little bit of shape
I'm gonna do a quick layer of mascara
can start to see what's happening
(look straight ahead for me)
now I'm gonna start to layer my purple on using twenty brush again
start to layer a purple cream
so now
when I go over it with my powder get a lot of color pay off
up
now when I go lay my purple over that
I will get a bright
pop color
because I have got that
cream
underneath notice I'm padding it on
gotta get more Color on that
then I'm gonna be really careful
blending without over blending
I don't blend away the color
blending where the two colors meet
and I want just a little bit darker of a purple at the base so I'm gonna grab my darker shade
okay now I'm gonna take my number 13 brush ( look up for me) and I'm gonna do
a little bit of my mid tone a matte
mahogany and lower lash line remember we're gonna ground the color
then I'm going to do put a bit
of cream acid green on the inside corner
followed by powder acid green
then I'm going to do some purple cream
on the lower lash line
(look up)
followed by my purple powder
and my number
13 brush (look up)
applying mascara on the lower lashes
then mascara to the top another layer
(look straight ahead)
cleaning up where I accidentally got a little bit of mascara on
on the lid (look down and over, open and look down over that way)
taking a little bit of a matte raisin
blush
a little bit of powder
taking a tiny bit and that matte mahogany mid tone
to contour the nose
and then I'm just gonna end with a really beautiful sandy beige
gloss because I've got such a colorful eye
I don't wanna overwhelm the face with a lot of color
there we have a colorful eye now remember when ever you are doing a colorful eye
especially on darker skin tones you wanna layer your creams
and your shadows together I mean even on all skin tones that's way good color to pop
with your skin tone is lighter or darker also you've got to ground it with
neutrals. I still use my matte mid tones in order to
ground that color and
then layering your creams and powder together and it's going to give you brights pops of
color
color was all over runways everywhere this season to
play with color have fun let's get that color poppin
