My recent trip to the Illamasqua event lead me to meet the amazingly talented make-up artist Alex Box.
Whilst talking to her I noticed her eyeliner, I loved that look on the runway but have never seen anyone wear it for an everyday look.
Alex's was a less dramatic version of mine, I just used hers as a little inspiration.
I didn't want to be weird and stare at her face because I hate it when people do that, so I took a five second mental note of the shape and stored it for this look.
It's not perfect but I didn't care as it was the first time I had used the liquid pen
The line extends into the crease from the winged corner, although you can't see very well I have pulled this down under the lower lashes too.
It is wearable but for the daring, I think this is a bit hard core for some.
I have paired it with pink cheeks and lip

Such a great look that I'll definitely try. I love black liner and was getting a tad bored with the usual flicks.
ReplyDeleteYour last photo with the mustache's hilarious :D I went dressed as a pirate/Jack Sparrow once with dreadlocks and everything, but was too scared to draw hairy male things on my face, lol.
