Beautify and Creatify

Makeup is an art. Just like painter draws on canvas, makeup artist creates image on the face. Today's look that I want to present is not going to be something that you could wear everyday. It is more of an artistic makeup that I like to create sometimes. I recently joined instagram, it is a community/social network that allows people share various pictures. I came across many makeup artists' work that inspired me and I also started sharing some of my makeup looks there (my username is: beautifyandcreatify, for those who have instagram and would like to check out my photos). As well as sharing photos, there are different contests on instagram that you could join by uploading certain types of images. So this particular look was my submission for one of the contests which asked to create something that has a shape of heart using something that you love. Well, as you already have guessed, I love makeup and creating heart shaped image using makeup sounded just right to me. So this...

In my glitter collection there is such a beautiful plum-burgundy colored glitter, that I always wanted to put in use. So I did! I created dramatic smokey eye look which is perfect for special occasions, weddings, dinners, nights out and etc. With this look I suggest to keep your lip color light or nude.  1. First step is priming your lids. Apply your eyeshadow base/primer. 2. Using eyeshadow brush apply a purple eyeshadow all over the lid and bring down to the bottom lid as well.  3. Using blending brush, start blending upwards towards the crease and extend the shadow towards outer part of your lid.  4. Apply glitter adhesive/glue on your lids and pack the glitter on. Glitter glue helps glitter to apply easily without a mess and stay on all day long.  To make the color transformation of glitter and shadow smoother, I applied black eyeshadow on my crease, right above the glitter. I used pencil brush for it.  Highlight your browbone area an...

Today's beauty post will show you how to create Gradient Glitter Makeup Look. All you need is white glitter and some color matching lighter and darker glitters, for example: light blue and darker blue glitter, as I picked for this look. You can wear this look to any special occasions, nights out and other events. Let's get started! 1. As usual, prime your lids.  2. Apply dark blue eyeshadow on your crease and blend it out nicely. 3. Now it's glitter time! Glitter is messy, it can get all over your face, therefore first you'll need to apply glitter adhesive/glue on your lids and then pack glitter on. That way glitter won't fall off and will stay on all day long. Apply white glitter in the first 1/3 of your lid starting from the inner corner. Then follow by packing light blue glitter on the center of your lid. 4. Pack dark blue glitter on the outer 1/3 of your lid.  5. Draw a line using blue eyeliner on your crease, right above the glitter. This ...
