Goddess Glow (A Makeup Geek Summer Smokey)

Hello Starshines!
One of my favorite makeup look of all time is the smokey eyes. Yet, in summer I find hard to wear this kind of dramatic look so I feel a bit frsutrated. Anyway, today I decided I needed to do a Smokey and with the help of the wonderful warm tones from Makeup Geek, I came with this! It was also a wonderful occasion to try their marvelous pigment Afterglow!!

Products used:
Makeup Geek Eyeshadows: Crème Brulee, Goddess, Cocoa Bear and Brown Sugar
Makeup Geek Pigment: Afterglow
Maybelline Eyestudio Gel Liner
Cover Girl Lashblast Volume Mascara
Sigma Brushes 
Essence eyebrow kit

1. Apply Crème Brulee with an E40 all over the eyelid to help blend the colors.
2. With an E 35 blend Cocoa Bear on the outter V and take it in the crease, work it pretty high for a dramatic smoked effectbut make sure to blend the edges well near the brow bone so it won't be stark brown up there!
3. Taking an E55, dab Goddess on the middle on the eye and drag it into the outter part of lid. You don't have to be super precise in the blending here as we're gonna add some more colors afterwards.
4. With an E57 (my fav brush ever to apply pigment!) place Afterglow on the inner corner then smoooth it out upward and onto Goddess (if that makes any sense >_<)
5. With an E25 place Brown Sugar on the outter V then holding the brush sideways bring it into the crease. Then turn the brush and sweep back and forth with no additional product.
6. Apply a dramatic winged eye-liner because you want to be bold and dark ;) and put black khol on the upper AND lower waterlines (placing khol on the upper lashline will add more depth to the look and enhance the smokey effect!)
7. For the lower lashline use an E15 to place Brown Sugar on the outter part and Goddess on the middle part. Place the brush really close to he waterline so the eyeshadows will prevent the khol to smear throughout the day.
8. Smudge it with an E20 and Crème Brulee.
9. Apply Shimma Shimma on the brow bone, put mascara and you're all done!

I hope you enjoyed this look, please leave a comment if you did and I wish you all an amazing day!

Midnight Peacock

Hello lovelies,
Today I felt kind of dark and I also wanted to play with my Makeup Geek Peacock eyeshadow. So it may be a little heavy and dramatic for an everyday summer look but I really wanted to do something dark and intense!

Products used:
Makeup Geek Eyeshadows in: Peacock, Mermaid, Shimma Shimma and Peach Smoothie.
MAC cosmetics Eyeshadows in: Carbon
Maybelline Eyestudio Gel Liner
NYX Le Frou Frou Mascara
Sigma brushes: E15, E20, E25, E40, E55 and E39

Tutorial
1. Apply MUG Peach Smoothie with and E40 all over the lid.
2. Place Peacock on the mobile lid with an E55, work the color in the crease but don't go too far following the shape of your eyeball.
3. Blend it well with an E39 or the previous E40.
4. With an E25 apply Mermaid on the upper crease. Here again you can take back the E40 or the E39 to blend any harsh line.
5. With an E20 smudge some Carbon near your lashline to create this dark smokey effect.
6. Line your eyes and apply khol to define and darken the look even more
7. Apply Peacock along your lower lash line with and E15 then blend it with an E20 dipped in Mermaid.
8. Highlight the inner tear duct with Shimma Shimma, put mascara and you're done!

What do you think of this look? Do you like dark smokey look even for Summer?
