Metallic Mink Eyes and Nude Lips

My first Makeup client of the day. Bridal trial for beautiful bride to be Rusen who's a Mongolian Romanian mix.Great features:-) She wanted a strong look on the eyes and natural everywhere else so this is what I created ♥
Makeup Brushes Used:MAC , Bare Escentuals, Stila and Laura Geller
Primer:MAC Matte Gel
Base:MAC Studio Fix Fluid in NW15
Eye Primer:Laura Geller Eye Spackle
Concealer:Estee Lauder Disappear Smoothing Creme
Powder:MAC Invisible
Blush:A Peach for the apples of the cheeks and a light tan for contouring by Pixi Cosmetics (find them on Carnaby St)
Eyeshadow:A gorgeous metallic mink shade by Kiko Makeup Milano in 228 (find Kiko store in either Westfield)
Eyeliner: Gel Intenza liner in Pure Black by L'oreal which does not budge till removed. Way better than MAC's Blacktrack gel liner which smudges and is quite a greasy texture.

Mascara:NYC Skyrise Lenthening Mascara in black my current fav.
Lip Liner:No. 7 in Nude.Best.Lipliner.Bar.None
Lips:Revlon gloss in Toast To
Shine a perfect caramel shade.

A tip for the eyeshadow application: The eyeshadow by Kiko Makeup Milano is a wet AND dry formula so for a more subtle colour use dry and for a more intense pigment wet your eyeshadow brush before applying. I always find a flat brush works best if you want to wet the shadow for a more intense colour.
