Silja of Padmita’s Makeup Blog already did a guest look on here before. Now she is back with a new one that’s even better! She does lots of makeup tutorials in her own blog but I feel like every time she uses Lime Crime, it comes out extra-magical… I could be biased though!
INGREDIENTS
- MAC Bare Canvas
- Lime Crime Duchess
- Lime Crime Empress
- Lime Crime Jinx glitter
- Maybelline Expression kohls in black & white
- CoverGirl Lash Blast
- MAC #2 Lashes
- Rhinestones
Start with the primer of your choice (I used MAC Bare Canvas for this look) and apply all over your lid with a flat, synthetic brush like MAC #242. Apply Lime Crime Duchess all over with a fluffier brush. You can add several layers until you get the vibrancy you want. Then take a smaller brush, slightly wet the tip, dip into the pigment and draw a line downwards, ending in a little curl towards the cheek. Then take a smaller brush (MAC #219 or similar) and apply Empress to the lower lid, drawing it out in the same manner but ending the liner further upwards.
Use a glitter gel (MAC Mixing Medium Eyeliner) and apply a bit of Jinx Glitter between Duchess and Empress. Glue some rhinestones around the curls using false lash glue, add some dramatic falsies, apply black eyeliner on the upper lid and white on the waterline, and finish with mascara on the lower lashes.
Your final result:

Oh my God….as soon as I saw that make-up look I was in love. It’s soooo gorgeous!! I really have to buy some more limecrime this summer. =) But I can never decide which ones to get because all the colors are so beautiful!! =)
Don’t you want to apply the Empress under the eye, not Duchess? Unless I missed that step somehow. Empress was mentioned further down when you added the glitter, but you never actually added it during the tutorial.
Simply stunning! 8D
@Gabrielle: You’re right, of course it’s supposed to be Empress under the eye! Sorry!
Looks wonderful! I sooo needed to see some beautiful colors today, thank you!
THIS IS SO GORGEOUSSSSSSSS.
:) I always have wanted to be a mermaid… and now I can <3
