A reader gave me this idea – a candy inspired look for a Candy Blog!

This was very quick and easy to do.

Nars Eye Pencil in Kitty

** Any pink/blue shadow and liquid liner will do. I just wanted to play with more products **

Directions:

1. Start with a bare eye. I used the Myface concealer as a primer:

2. Pick the lightest shade, the sheer shimmery pink

3. Apply under the brow….

….and across the eyelid.

4. Pick up the candy pink with a smaller brush…

….and apply in the crease…..

…grab that big brush again and just soften out the line of the pinks.

5. Take the darkish blue shade with an even smaller brush:

…and line outwards, extended the line out and up towards the end of the brow. Wet the brush for a more dramatic line.

6. Get the white pencil and line the waterline.

7. Just for a pop of colour I am using Nars Kitty Pencil, a bright blue under the lashes of the top lid.

8. Curl the eyelashes:

11. Take your pink gel liner (or any highlighter colour):

…..and apply in the inner corners…..

12. Apply a black liquid eyeliner – I am using Blinc’s as it stays put.

13. Use a brow gel or pencil depending on how much brow you already have! Mine are already dark so I am using a tinted gel.

14. I am adding a bright pink creme blush – this is NYX Hot Pink Creme Blush – just 2 dots.

15. I also decided to add a highlighter (I used Rouge Bunny Rouge) across the top of the cheekbone.

16. Sticking with the candy theme, the lipstick was a mauve, pin up shade, Centerfold by Too Faced.

Done!

Excuse my spots – I did this at 4am before I went away, and was completely exhausted!
