Watermelon sWiRL


Hello Everyone!!!
Today, I decided that I would accomplish many goals for this summer, number one of my list was checked off 3 weeks ago, and no it's not because I started this blog, it's because I finally solved the rubiks cube!! :D
Number 2 will soon be checked off once my blog becomes more popular, because my next goal is to be able to touch people's hearts with the beauty of cosmetics. I personally am an artist, mainly in painting and I find that now that I connect makeup with my painting skills, I end up with, in my opinion unique creations. Whoever is reading this right now, I'd like to thank you for taking your time to read this, and I won't waste more of your time and lets get into this look I call...

*PS: I'd like mention right away that I wanted to make a blog instead of videos because YouTube is being used way too much and I wanted to be more unique in the making of these tutorials..*

I'm going to start off with a primer, the one I personally love to use is Urban Decay Primer Potion
The brushes I will be using are from the brand Ecotools, the first one I used to apply color all over the lid, the second brush I used to apply the darkest colors I used in this tutorial. The third brush I used to mix the lightest and medium colors to make a more unique color, and the last brush I used to blend the colors. Blending is the key to a good creation, but too much blending messes with the defined color and that's not pretty!
I started with the medium pink in the coastal scents 88 matte palette, (the 3 *stared* pinks in the picture below represent from left to right, dark pink, medium pink and light pink) and applied it all over the lid.

I then use the darkest green in the picture below and, as shown in the picture above, make a line on the outer corner of my eyelid and worked it up to the crease of my eye.
As shown below, I know blended the green line up to my crease and my upper lashline, and aimed toward the middle part of my crease, in a v-shape manner.
I then did the same with my hot pink color of the palette and blended towards the middle to blend these two opposites together, and create a united combination of 2 wonderful colors.
Now all you do is curl your lashes if you haven't already and apply your mascara. and you eyes are all done!!!! :D
And here is my finished eye, pretty easy right!! Enjoy your new look, have a wonderful and I will see all of you soon in the next tutorial!!!!
