Make Up Ideas (Fashion) Part 1

Make Up is just as expressive as your clothes. So, I decided I would show you some of my favorite make-up styles. One is more basic, one you can wear on less fancy occasions and the other is a little more wild and crazy. Keep in mind that you can use your regular foundation for both of these looks.
The first one is Classic Black and Silver. It has a lot of edge to it and brings out any color eye. It basically looks like a punky pin-up girl and it's pretty easy for when you don't have a whole lot of time to spend.
Here's what you need:
1. Black Liquid Eyeliner
2. Black Mascara
3. Black and Silver eye shadow (the duo from Hot Topic is the BEST!)

Step 1- Dab a little bit of water on your eyelid and apply the silver eyeshadow in the inner corner of your upper lid. (always dab water onto your eyelid right before applying eyeshadow. It helps the make-up stick and show up more vividly.)
Step 2- With a brush or your finger, (either one works, but sometimes your finger gets outside the lines. Just wipe the unwanted parts off with a cloth) apply the black eyeshadow to the outer corners of the upper lid. Apply on your lid and just a little bit above the crease.
Step 3- Using the black liquid liner, make a VERY THIN line on your top eyelid, right on the lashline.
Step 4- Apply black mascara to upper lashes. (I always go from the base of my lashes and move the brush in a zig-zag motion while I'm pulling out to the end of my lashes. It makes them fuller.)

Step 5- OPTIONAL. You can line your lower lid with black to make it heavier.
Step 6- Pair this eye make-up with a really bright, vibrant red lipstick. It looks amazing!
