Step by step smudged liner tutorial

Hi dolls

Sorry it took me a few days to do a tutorial on that look!

The finished look

Apply your foundation and concealer,prime the eyes and apply a light gray eyeshadow all over your eye up to the browbone.

Tightline the upper and lower waterline with an eye pencil.It doesn't have to be neat

Line the upper lashline,again to need to be neat or precise

Set the liner with a matte black eyeshadow and start smudging with a pencil brush

With a fluffy brush and a tiny bit of white eyeshadow blend out the edges of the liner,we don't want harsh lines.On the upper lid blend the shadow onto the main lid area.

Highlight the brow area with a white shimmery eyeshadow and darken the lower lashine with black eyeshadow and a pencil brush.Draw on your brows and apply lots of mascara or false lashes.

This is how it should look :)

If you want a tutorial for a look,just let me know dolls!

The look should take you about 5-10 minutes and of course you can always go for a less dramatic version by adding less black or simply by changing the color.I am sure it works with brown too.

Gradient Fade Effect Ombre Nail Art Tutorial

Hi dolls!


In the little survey that I had done a few weeks ago a lot of you wanted to see a fade-effect,gradient,ombre (however you want to call it).
When I did the steampunk/Goth cross nail art with the 110 rhinestones,I totally forgot to take pictures of the gradient effect.*slaps herself*


Fade effect nail art is pretty easy,and it can be done with a lot of colors and nail polish types.And if you have a badly pigmented nail polish/holo top coat you can use it now.
You need:
1 background color
3 or 4 colors from the same color family
1 make up sponge
topcoat 
tissue
cotton swaps 
polish remover

Apply your background color and let it fully dry

You should have 3-4 colors from the same family.The polish with the worst pigmentation will be number 1

Apply a thin coat of number 1 to the edge of a make up sponge

Apply a thin coat of number 1 by lightly dabbing the sponge's edge onto your nail.The red dots show you how deep you can blend the polish.*Dry 5 min*

Now use the clean edge of the sponge and apply number 2 on your nails.You want to avoid creating harsh lines

Number 3.....

Number 4 the darkest color on the very tip,blend well.

Clean up the mess with a cotton swap and some polish remover and add 2 coats of quick dry topcoat.

Some sponges sometimes crumble and leave 1-2 spongy crumbs on your nail.Remove them with a pair of tweezers or a toothpick.

Victorian Project : Victorian make up step by step

Hi dolls


My dear friend will start an awesome project: She wants to dress like a Victorian era Lady for 1 year.
And how could I not support an amazing project like this? The lovely Kitty asked me if I could do a very natural Victorian make up.

The finished eye look :)

So here is a step by step tutorial :

Apply a lot of concealer,because Victorian ladies don't like flaws!

Blend the concealer with a damp sponge

Apply the lightest foundation you have and set it with a light powder.

Use a red-ish blush and focus only on the apples of your cheeks.Use a little more than you usually would.Victorian ladies love a rosy glow on their cheeks.

Prime your eyes.Although our lovely Vic-Ladies didn't use eyeshadow ,you want to emphasize your eyes.

Choose a white/flesh colored eyeshadow and a light brown one

Apply the white eyeshadow in the inner corners and blend it following the fancy red dots

The brown shadow goes into the crease to create more depth .Again follow the dots :D

Tightline upper and lower waterline and smudge it with a pencil brush.Choose a dark gray or black eyeliner pencil.

Draw on bushy brows and apply mascara!

Use a rosy or carmine containing lipstick,but don't cake it on,you just want a wash of color.

And that is basically it :)

Good luck with the 1 year Victorian Lady project <3
