Pink Smokey Valentine's Day Makeup Tutorial

With Valentine's Day approaching I though it would be fun to create a simple pink toned smoked eye :-) 

I am by no means a make up artist but I do love my make up! If you would like to know how to recreate this eye look then keep reading ;-) 

Step 1

Using a any light pink and purple shade you like, take a blending brush or a big fluffy brush and layer the colours lightly into your crease.

Step 2

Take a purple that is a shade or two darker than the one you used in the first step and using a smaller fluffy brush or a pencil brush, deepen the crease colour. Do this in wind-sheild wiper motions across the crease of your eyelid just as you did in step one.

Step 3

Using the same fluffy brush from step 1, combine a light shimmery shade with a dark grey or black shade and pack this one your lid. 

The trick here is to keep blending with the fluffy brush, especially when using darker colours like black.

Step 4

Use the pencil brush to mix the darker purple colour used in step 2 and the dark grey or black shade you used in step 3 and deepen the outer V of the lid. This is the outer third of the eyelid.

Step 5

Using the same brush and colours as before, create a line under your lower lashes. 

If this looks a little too harsh, use the big fluffy brush to help blend it out. 

Step 6

Take the pencil brush and use the dark grey or black colour to darken the crease and outer V once more. 

This step is optional, depending on how dark you want your look. 

Step 7

Wipe off the pencil brush or use a clean brush to add a shimmery or any highlight colour to your brow bone and inner corner. 

From here you can add eyeliner to your waterline, liquid eyeliner to your lid, and mascara to finish off the look :-) 

I added liquid liner and some mascara to make my eyes really pop!

Hope you guys enjoyed this tutorial. As always you can tag me if you recreate this look @loraforever3 on Instagram :-) 

I will also be posting a simple Valentine's nail art idea to go with this look very soon, keep an eye out for that ;-) 

Love & Hugs, Lora xo
