High End Smoking hot titanium... with a Cranberry twist!

The Autumnal and Wintery months have finally descended, my favourite time of year, not only for make-up but for fashion! I just always find, especially with clothing that the textures and trends are just that tiny bit more exciting in the colder months! Think it's because I'm a fan of coats and moody colours!

Today I got the chance to create this wonderful smokey eye makeup look on my beautiful friend Eve.
I basically had 20 minutes at the end of our lesson to create something juicy on the eye and this is what I chose to do.

 

Products Used :  
MAC Paint Pot - Painterly - £15.50 UK  | $16.00 USA
MAC Cranberry Eyeshadow - £13.00 UK | $16.00 USA

TOM FORD Titanium Smoke Palette £63.00 UK | $79.00 USA
TOM FORD Eyeshadow Brush £43.00 UK | $56.00 USA
TOM FORD Smokey Eye brush £42.00 UK | $52.00 USA
TOM FORD Blending Brush £43.00 UK | $56.00 USA

TOPSHOP Cream Highlighter POLISH - £9 UK | $16 USA

Steps : 
  1. I created the base using Painterly by MAC.
  2. I then used the Blending Brush and loaded the brush with Cranberry eyeshadow, and swept it all over the lid and blended it out into the crease.
  3. I then used the 'Sparkly' Graphite shade in the Titanium Smoke palette, and using the eyeshadow brush I packed the glittery shade onto Eve's lid. I made sure to build the colour up to an intensity I was happy with. I then blended this into the crease using the same brush that had the Cranberry shade on.
  4. Next I used the eyeshadow brush and using the Matte Black/ Grey shade of the Titanium smoke palette I gently defined Eve's outer V on her eye and deepened her crease. I then blended to a seamless finish.
  5. I then took the cranberry shade underneath Eve's lower lash line, and then built up the colour and used a tiny bit of the black close to her lash line, this just pulls the whole look together.
  6. Finally I used the Smokey Eyebrush, using the Highlighter from Topshop I used this on Eve's inner corner of her eyes. This just brightens the whole look up.
