My name is Michelle Detrick and I'm a make up artist. I've done make up on a lot of celebrities, Pam Anderson, Tony Rust, Lenny Kravitz, Cynthia Nixon, there is a big misconception that I could never do that look on the runway and you absolutely can everybody can and you'll play to your best attributes and I can show you how to do that.
I just finished a summerlook on Billy and now we're going to turn into a dramatic eye for a night time look, and we're going to keep her summery bronze look going just for a really hot night on the town now. Okay, so she has on the very first look that we started with which was natural eyes which we loved for summer, but now she needs some more definition in her brows and we're gonna do her eyes entirely. So, let's start with your brows, I'm just gonna add a little bit more definition, we used clear brow gel before, but, I just want to make sure that they don't get overpowered by the dramatic eye that we're about to do. So, I just did a little fill on this eye brow, and like I said small dashes similar in length to your brow hairs, okay? Just a little bit more defined, it automatically also makes you look like you have highlighter on your brow bone which you don't because of the varying contrast that it adds. Just small dashes throughout the entire brow. So now, I am going to apply, because we've already done a summer face and bronze look on Billy, we want to protect it, so here instead of a translucent powder, which I've used before, I'm gonna use more of a peachy tone, just to protect the make up we're gonna leave it really powdery on her skin, so go ahead an roll the brush with the powder on it, your not trying to matte her out you just want to apply a really thick layer of powder to protect the make up that you've already done because we're going to use some darker shadows, and we want them to not ruin the rest, okay, and this will be the brush that we'll dust it off with later but we're going to leave it like this for now and get started on the dramatic eye. I'm going to use a dark purple eyeliner, it's very deep and dark, eggplant kind of color and we're going to use that inside of the eye, a little bit smudged on the outside bottom as well as across the top lash line, and that's going to be our starting point and I'll show you were to go from there.
As far as eye shadows go, I'm going to use this very dark purple illusioning shimmer, as well as a smokey gray and I'm actually going to start with kind of a cementy brown. So, let's start on the top lash line with a purple pencil, this does not matter if you do it perfectly or not because we're going to smudge it out anyways, the idea is just to to get really a lot of color and depth next to the lash line. And just smudge it across, so that's just very fast, easy, we're going to smudge it in a moment with a brush but first I'm just going to use this inside of her eyes, so on yourself if you just take a brush and pop down the lower and kind of like hold it up, it's easier than like sticking pencil inside your eye, yeah, and always make sure of course your sharpen your pencil after every time you use it. Are you okay to do this other eye? Okay. Alright, so, I was going to do a little bit, actually underneath each of the bottom lash lines, it'll help the shadow that we're going to apply, grip a little bit more as well as be more smudgy.
Alright, so, the next thing that we're going to do is to take this kind of cementy brown here with a medium kind of finger sized brush of the flat so it'll fit right into your eye and across the lid. So, let's do this first, we're going to make it look like we took a lot of time blending when we didn't, so starting on the outside, like the outer half of the eye, just go ahead an make a "V" and with the brush you can see how I'm not using it like a finger, I'm using it on it's side, so like this into the crease, as well as half way across the eye. And make the small "V", okay, so that's just the very first side, do the same on the other eye. Hid it half way across starting on the outside so when you use this kind of medium tone it's going to create an illusion when we add darker tones throughout the rest of the eye.
So the next step to our look is going to be to take this dark purple color that I pointed out earlier with an even smaller brush, more rounded brush than the last one and we're going to pull it across the whole lid, so go ahead an swirl it into the shadow, give it a small tap, and start right next to that purple line, softly blending outwards, so where I started the first color out working inwards in a "V" shape, now I'm starting in the middl
