Eye Look: Ombre Eyeliner

Hello!

Today's look is about workplace-friendly but creative eyeliner :-)

Usually, my eye looks are bright and quite bold, but lately I've been in a work environment where my colleagues don't  wear makeup and I end up feeling over-done. At the same time, I love makeup and the creativity I put into my looks, so I'm not about to quit. Most of the time, I ignore my feelings of being over-done and just go with whatever I feel like doing. This is a look I came up with on a day I was running a bit late and I thought it might be a good way for those of you who are a bit scared of full-on eyeshadow or really bright eyeliner looks to dip a toe in the bright water :P

How-To:
  • Urban Decay eyeshadow primer potion in Eden over the whole eyelid area.
  • Urban Decay eyeshadow (Kinky from the Smoked Palette) on the whole eyelid area.
  • Lime Crime liquid eyeliner in Lazuli on the top lash line.
  • Maybelline black liquid eyeliner (styletto) on the outer third, and out to a small wing.
  • Black mascara!

I hope you like it!

  1. This is such a pretty look, and a novel way of wearing a bright pop of colour. :)
