This great strong look works well with all colours.

Experiment with different colours of eye shadows that complement with your outfit. Some great stockists of loose glitters and dusts are Barry M, Models Own at ASOS, Collection 2000 and GOSH (available at Superdrug's) We will use three main colours on the eye. The first being a light reflective eye shadow and then, depending on what colour you opt for, a complimenting matt colour that works well with the loose glitter or dazzle dust of choice. We will use green here.

 

All the words highlighted in pink will take you to another page describing the brush or the process of application in further detail

 

After applying foundation, concealer and powder choose a strong eyebrow colour and apply a bold eye brow. If you are making such a strong eye, you really need a bold eyebrow. Strong eyes do not work with the natural eye brow!

When applying your concealer, take some along the jaw-line to add contour and shape to the overall look. You will really notice this step when you complete.

Step 1: Using brush No.4 and a really light reflective eye shadow, cover the whole eye area right up to the brow and down to the lash.

Step 2: Brush No.5 and a strong, matt green, cover the whole of the eye ball taking care to keep your work tidy and not to go about the socket.  With this look you can go right into the corner of the eye if you wish.

Step 3: Brush No.6 will add the same matt, green close to the lower lash line. Again, take care to keep tidy. This is when all those wet-wipes and tissues come in handy! Go right into the corner of the eye so green is very strong covering the whole eye area.

Step4: Using brush No.12, press into the loose powder then press onto the eye over the matt green you have just applied. Do not blend, this only makes  a mess and is where so many people go wrong! The strength of tone is in the pressing action and the shade underneath.

Step 5: Liquid liner. With brush No.10, dip into your liquid and with the brush on an angle, run along the upper lash line. For the illusion of a larger eye, continue the line up ending in a gentle flick.

Step 6: Use brush No.13 and a tawny , matt tone for this step. Use your finger and feel your cheek bones running your feel towards your ear. This is the line you want to follow with the colour. Only start with a very small amount on the brush and add as and when you think you need. This enhances your natural cheek bones and gives you contour if you haven't seen them for a while! You will also notice that the concealer you applied in the first steps has been untouched and has emphasised the contour further. Apply blush to the apples of your cheeks using No. 14

 

Finish with a natural lip line and complimenting lip gloss. I like to keep the gloss very natural for this look.
