tutorial: basic contouring with sketch

I received a few requests to make a tutorial for this look, so here it is!

(in order of appearance)
NYX Milk
Mink Pink
Vanilla pigment
Sketch
Patina
Solar White
W&W cream liner
L'oreal Telescopic mascara

Sorry the pictures vary in their sharpness and lighting. Damned camera!
1. Prime

2. Mink Pink in the crease with a 217

3. Vanilla pigment on the lid

4. Pack Sketch on the outer lid with a 239


5. Blend it out (tapered blending brush)

6. Vanilla pigment as a highlight, and with a 217 I blend some Patina in the areas circled.

7. Inner to outer bottom lashline: Mink Pink - Patina - Sketch

8. Solar White in the inner corners

9. Liner

10. Mascara, and we're done! Super simple :)


Thank you for looking! I also made an eyebrow tutorial, so I'll have it posted in a couple of days. Have a great day!
