Hey Babes!

This weekend as you can probably already tell by the title, I had dancing photos and of course you can't make a great photo without having amazing makeup. To create this look I used the Napoleon Perdis Colour pots in a variety of greys and blacks. Firstly I start with a small amount of black on the outer corner and then blend it in to make sure there is no harsh lines. To lighten up the look, I use white and light greys to blend together to open up the eye. A helpful hint I have is to always use brightening colours in the inner corner of the eye to make a statement. If you want to add a super edgy touch to the overall look, take the second lightest grey and apply it under the water line, only half way across to create the extra smokey effect. Now for the tricky party liquid eyeliner. To create a bold look add a cat eye which will intensify the smoky effect. Once you have done the eyes apply false eyelashes and then BAM! there is your super chic dramatic smokey eye. Now moving onto skin, I always say do the eyes first to prevent fallout from eyeshadow, but each to their own. Apply the usual: foundation, concealer, contour, bronzer, blush and highlight to add extra sparkle to your photos. Once that is completed add some hot red lipstick to finish off the look- I used Kylie Jenner Lip Kit- Mary Jo Kay and voila!!! The perfect dramatic smokey eye topped with flawless skin and a touch of red lip. Which makes a great statement for dance photos.
