Step by Step - Foolproof Going Out Look For Summer.

Summer is around the corner and I was playing around with some of my makeup the other day and I posted this photo on my instagram (margretscorner follow me:)
And I decided to do a step by step post on this eyelook since it is sooooo easy. 


I think it is perfect for going out in the summer since it has a pop of color and I paired it with a bright pink lip :)


Step 1 - Primer Primer Primer... My ultimate favorite is the Urban Decay Primer Potion and I only need a tiny bit for both eyelids.


Step 2 - Next I took my Maybelline gel eyeliner in black, I used it all over my eyelid.
If you use black a an base and then any color (bright metallic) ends up being so vivid and beautiful.
I love this technique



Step 3 - Next I take a light brown color to blend into my crease and soften the edges. My new favorite is MAC kid. It is very soft and I only use tiny bit. You can also use a bit darker brown and get more of a smokey effect.


Step 4 - Pick your eyelid color, I love Urban Decay Hijack from Book of Shadows number five.
Place it all over the black base.



Step 5 - Apply inner corner highlighter, I am using Crystal from the same Urban decay Palette.
It makes such a difference when you do this small step.


Step 6 - Apply more eyeliner :)
On your waterline and upper lash line and I like to wing it out .


step 7 - Curl your lashes and apply mascara, Today I am using the Benefit They're real.
If you dare, apply false eyelashes :)


Step 8 Then go ahead and do some finishing touches.
Fill in your eyebrows,  I am using Rimmel eyebrow pencil in Hazel.


Step 9 - More finishing touches... Creamy light matte eyeshadow on my brow bone to give me a little lift. This one is from Seventeen and is called Ivory Coast


And the eyes are done!
So easy :)





I had to pair the look with a bright lip.
Since summer is almost here I think this look is great for going out and with the bright lip it really   is a summer night look!
I used MAC Viva Glam Nicki (the first lipstick) (I did a post about it here)
And on top I used Chanel Lipgloss (I can't find it right now, I have no idea where I put it but I will post a Instagram photo when I find it with the name)


And for the rest of the face this is what I am wearing:
Bourjois healthy Mix Foundation in 52
Soap and Glory Blotting Powder in translucent
Collection Concealer in shade 1 and 2
Benefit Dallas Blush/Bronzer


So that was my Step by Step to a Foolproof Going Out Look For Summer.

Let me know what you think and if you have tried any of these products?

As always
