MAKEUP TUTORIAL - Wuthering Heights

This is my first makeup tutorial, and it is inspired by the book Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte. 

In it I used:-

• Eyeshadows from an Accessorize palette I got for Christmas, 
• Max Factor Masterpiece Max mascara, 
• Avon Super Shock Gel eyeliner, 
• Max Factor Lipfinity Lasting Lip Tint in 06, 
• Molton Brown lipgloss in Sleigh Ride, 
• Urban Decay Primer Potion, 
• Maybelline 24 Hour Super Stay foundation in 005 Light Beige, 
• Hanorah Satin eyeshadow mono in opalescent (as a highlighter), 
• BeneFit Thrrrob blush, 
• Avon Ideal Shade powder in Fair.

Before you do anything, make sure your skin is clean and well moisturised. :)

EYES:- I always start with my eyes first, in case any of the eyeshadow drops onto the tops of my cheeks or whatever - if you do your foundation first, you'll ruin it! First of all, prime your eyelids. I use Urban Decay's Eyeshadow Primer Potion, but I would like to have a go of Lime Crime's one. Once you have primed both eyelids, I used a pale, shimmery salmony pink in the corners of my eyes. Sweep it up to your eyebrows in an arching movement, and about one third the way across your eyelid. Then take a bright iridescent purple and cover the rest of your eyelid with it, taking it up to just under your eyebrows. Blend with the pink. Next, take a teal colour, and place it at the outer corner of your eye and blend outwards. Create a v shape at the edge of your eye with the teal, but make sure its not harsh by blending it with a fluffy brush - don't press hard, just softly go over it in light circular movements. Remember, harsh lines are an indicator of a makeup novice, and you want it to look professional. Lastly, take a dark eggplant purple, and blend it into the socket crease, just above your eyeball. This sounds disgusting, but if you see were the top of your eyeball is, and run the brush along that ridge, that's were it needs to be. Blend, and then add the same eggplant colour to divide between the vivid purple and the pink. Once you've done this, touch up any colours that you think need to be brighter, then add some mascara to the top lashes and eyeliner to the waterline of your bottom lashes.

SKIN:- Put your foundation on. I generally do it with my fingers, but make sure you blend everything well, especially around the jaw, hairline and ears. Let it rest for a minute. Then take a power and set your foundation by covering your whole face, using a large soft brush. Next, take a highlighter (I use an eyeshadow because I perfer powders) and sweep it over the tops of your cheekbones, from your temples to just after the edge of your eye. Finally, take your blusher and brush it from the apples of your cheeks up to your hairline in an almost slashing motion. Blend, so you don't get a harsh line.

LIPS:- Take a lip tint and put it on your lips, concentrating the colour on the center of both your top and bottom lip. once it has dried, go over with a clear gloss.
