Teen Makeup Look: Easy on the Eyes


Step 1. Impulse and Glance.

Step 2. Darker shadows in this palette.

Step 3. The top shade is Instinct.

If you are looking to try out a new palette, Stila In the Moment  eye shadow palette is really stunning. You can create eye looks in 60 seconds flat and to prove the point, I am going to describe an easy eye look by typing for less than 5 minutes.

Step 1: Eyelids. Apply the lavender shade Impulse across your eyelids. Then, apply the purple shadow Glance to the edges of each eyelid, so a purple smudge goes on the right side on your right eyelid and on the left side of your left eyelid.

Step 2: Crease. Choose one of the darker shadows, such as Whim, a deep copper, or Improve, an inky purple, into the crease above your eyelids for added definition. You also can line the outer corners of your eyes with Whim for a more intense, nighttime look.

Step 3: Highlight. Apply Instinct, a pinkish-platinum shadow, below your eyebrow to make your eyes look larger and open up the look.

Finish with eyeliner for a rock 'n roll edge. Last but not least, follow the words printed on this beautiful makeup palette: "Cherish the beauty of the moment."

Teen Beauty: Tokyo Girl

Hey fashionistas, study hall queens, and girls with attitude,

You can never be too rock 'n roll. Makeup in wild colors might not go over well with "mom," but don't let that stop you from trying this Tokyo-inspired look. Yesterday, I discussed the extra prep work you will want to do before trying an electric color palette. Today, we can get down to business.

1. Take Tokidoki's Perfetto Eyeliner in Donutella, which is a blazing opaque pink, and apply it with a steady hand along your upper eyelash line.



2. Fill in the eyelid area above the solid pink eyeliner with a few dabs of the deep blue Ninja Dog shade from Tokidoki's Robbery Makeup Palette. Smudge so it appears smoky and not too opaque.

3. Reapply more of the Perfetto opaque eyeliner along the upper lash line if any of the blue eyeshadow broke the original line. The more pink, the better.

4. Step it up! Apply Tokidoki Glitter Eyeliner in Skeletro along the outer lower corners of your eyelids. Don't drag the eyeliner across the entire lower lash line because it might appear too heavy. Just add a touch around the corners. Smudge with an eyeliner brush or your ring finger.

5. Make this head-turning eye look even better with a few sweeps of Smashbox Bionic Mascara. Perfection!

You can apply moisturizer, foundation and, of course, concealer under the eyes either before or after steps 1 through 5.

6. Finish with hot pink blush (Try Make Up For Ever's Aqua Cream in Fuchsia ) and berry lips (Stila Lip & Cheek Stain in Raspberry Crush).

This look is great for flirting in the library or staying out past curfew. Wear extreme pink eyeliner...everywhere.

XOXO,
Charlotte
