Dear readers,
Today I will be sharing with you a date night look that was inspired by the Great Gatsby. If you haven’t yet seen the film I definitely recommend that you do because it is absolutely stunning and an absolute tear jerker! Hope you enjoy the look and don’t hesitate to share your own make up tutorials.
So from the girls in the film I saw that the make-up of the 20’s was super-smoky! This was because ‘King Tutankhamun’s tomb was discovered in the early ’20s and the world went crazy for everything Egyptian, including Cleopatra’s famed kohl eyes.’ (< http://thebeautygypsy.com/great-gatsby-makeup/>).
To recreate the ’20s sooty effect, I am using the urban decay naked palette. Here are the easy to follow steps:
1.Apply the colour ‘buck’ to your crease
2.Apply colour ‘naked’ just above the crease for a smooth transition
3.Apply the colour ‘creep’ to the outer v and crease
4.Apply the colour ‘gunmetal’ to the lid
5.Then blend, add mascara and eyeliner
Final look:
So there you have it. Until next time…
Charlotte xoxo
