Dramatic Makeup

*Coastal Scents 120 (palette 2 ) -crease colors

*Madison Street Beauty Wisteria- lid color (mixed with purples from the 120 palette)

*NYC liquid eye liner

*Urban Decay Primer Potion

*Maybelline Rocket mascara

Lips: 

Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics lip tar in the color Strumpet

Face:

*e.l.f face primer

*MAC Studio Fix foundation

*MAC Pro-Long Wear concealer

*e.l.f shimmering facial whip

Black Smokey Eye Makeup

Hi everyone, today I am going to share a dark sultry look I created using the Naked 2 Palette. This look is very simple and works well for date night or a night out on the town with your girl friends.

Get this look:

*The first thing I did was prime my eyes using the Urban Decay Primer Potion. Make sure you also prime  under your eyes since you will be applying shadow there as well.

*Using the color Blackout from the Naked 2 palette you are going to heavily cover your entire lids. Try not to go too high up into the crease, you want to keep the shadow on the lids.

*Using a small brush cover the area under your eyebrows in foundation. You want this area to look smooth and even and you want a nice contrast between the black.

*Line your lower lash line with a black eyeliner. I used the Revlon Colorstay pencil liner. I would stay away from using a harsh liquid liner.

* Using Blackout again, line under your lower lash line and use a smudge brush to fade the line and create a smokey effect.

*Highlight around your inner tear duct with the color Verve, this helps to brighten up the eyes. I also added a tiny bit of this color right under my eyebrows.

*Add your mascara.

*Finish it up with some lipstick and the look is complete!
