Classic Pin-Up Eye makeup


So,being completely honest. It has taken me a very long time to really get the knack of doing eyeliner without the help of tape or a eyeshadow shield. But recently I've found that finally after practicing and practicing I finally have the knack of it. It's just all part of the eyeliner learning curve, you will eventually pick up your way of doing it and be happy with it!

So after a couple of people via instagram and friends of mine have asked me how do you do it? I decided to do a pictorial and show you how easy it is!

I have used Benefit Cosmetics Magic Ink, MAC mascara and Ardell Demi Wispies, took me less than 10 minutes. 

Nō.1 I ALWAYS start with a line going from the edge of my eye and flick it outwards towards my eyebrow, everytime I do it on the other eye I find it always looks equal, because it works as my guide. 

Nō.2 I personally don't paint on the other line from the tip of the flick, I always go from the middle and bring it into my eye. And then continue a fine line to the inside of my eye.

Nō.3 Filling in, pretty straight forward.

Nō.4 Tidying up now, some people use concealer to sharpen the flick, luckily on this occasion I haven't had to do anything as I am happy with it so just added my mascara and get the glue on my lashes ready for application.

Nō.5 Here I have used Ardell Natural Demi Wispies for that 'pin-up' Finnish and that's it!

Now, I know that Nō.3 looks messy around the top area but that's ok because its can easily be amanded as you can see from Nō.4 and Nō.5. Now some people have a natural knack for it, others don't so remember Practise DOES make perfect.
