eyelook: romantic warm pink look

The month of love is almost here & I'm sure that most of you are already planning out what your outfit or look would be for your Valentines date. Last year, I said that Red is the color of Valentines... i still think that red is still the color of Valentines, but then so is pink! So i decided to make a look using pink with a hint of warmth on it. This would be perfect for a daytime look for it will give off a fun & flirty look!


Following how i did my gradient look HERE, i just did the same steps...

This is already my 3rd make-up post. I guess my love for eye make-up is slowly returning! Yokatta na~! I thought for sure that i would be adding my eye shadows on my blogsale for i haven't felt the urge to put any eyeshadow for like almost half a year! I'll just be doing an eye make-up for i still don't want to apply face make-up since my acne is still acting up...

I used my pigments when i did this look & since they are not available anymore so i just swatched it so if you have any shadows that has the same color with these, then you can just use it as a substitute.


color 1 is a cute light pink color
color 2 is a dark pink color
color 3 is a gorgeous gold color
color 4 is a warm bronze color
Again, this is a 'for dummy version' gradient look for this is very easy to do...

Line all four shadows like so...


Blend the inner 2 colors...


Then the 2 outer colors...


Then finally you join the 2 colors by blending it more... Voila!


Make sure you bring the colors down on your lower eye area like so...using an angled brush


Apply highlighter on the brow bone area as well as the area under the brow so it won't look bare.


My friend has been asking me over & over how i apply my eyeliner. She said that she is having trouble with eyelining. It's also the same with me... but what i do to prevent uneven eyeliner is to apply eyeliner with my eyes open.


I find that compare to applying eyeliner with eyes closed, it's easier to control how thick or thin i want it to be. Anyway, your eyes are open most of the time so you have to exactly know how your liner looks like with your eyes open, not closed.


Again, when you tightline, make sure that you do an upward feathery strokes then you'll be able to cover the gaps in between your lash line so that you'll have a well-defined eye. You can also line the lower waterline if you feel like it. I actually lined my lower lash line in my pic above.

For those who have deep set eyes & wanted to darken the crease area, you can do so by using a brown color instead of the bronze. But since i look weird whenever i darken my crease area so i just opted for a bronze color. But, of course, feel free to adjust the intensity of your eye make-up, especially if it's for a night out.

There ya go!
I hope i'll be able to come up with another one in time for Valentines day.

Hope y'all have a good start for your week!
Jaa ne~!
