Emerald & Gold Glitter - NYE Make-up Look featuring Pupa Milano Christmas 2012 Deco Collection products

As promised, here is a make-up look you can wear on NYE if you are still undecided. I have also included  a list of products used for your reference so keep reading to see how you can re-create the look :)

1. Start with the eye make-up first so that you can clean up fall-outs easily. Apply some scotch tape at 45 degree angle starting at the tail of your brows.  This will help to create a more accentuated outer-v.

2. Prime lids with an eye primer. Next, apply a gold eyeshadow with a shader brush on the inner third of your eye and proceed with a deep brown on the second third, moving outward (left eye).  Use an emerald green shadow on the outer corner and make sure that you create a defined line against the scotch tape (right eye). Here I chose to take the emerald shadow a little higher than the crease of my eye for a more dramatic look .  It is best if you use an angled eyeshadow brush for this step.


3. Take a fluffy blending brush and go over the gold eyeshadow once again, taking care to blend it with the brown eyeshadow. Do the same for the brown and emerald eyeshadows making sure that the line above the crease is nice and neat.

4. Apply a matte eyeshadow close to your skin tone on the brow bone for highlight and add some brow gel to keep brows in check.

5. Use a glitter eyeliner to line the upper lash line and the inner corner and with a slant eyeshadow brush, mirror the colours on the lid and line the lower lash line. Make sure you connect the shadow at the outer corner.


6. Curl lashes, apply a mascara primer if you wish and finish with several coats of your favourite mascara.


7. Now, for the face. Apply concealer and foundation as you normally would, taking care not to ruin the eye make-up. Set with a translucent powder and apply some fixer to avoid caked up make-up. Choose a foundation that doesn't have SPF so you don't end up looking white in photos.

8. Contour your face by applying highlighter to the bridge of your nose, cupid's bow and cheekbones; bronzer to the hollows of your cheeks and blush to the apples of your cheeks.

9. Lastly, since we have so much going on with the eyes, I opted for a nude lip and applied Catrice Ultimate Colour lipstick in 190 The Nuder The Better and topped it with Essence XXXL Shine Lipgloss in 08 Glamour To Go for extra sparkle!
