Tutorial: Soft Yet Dramatic with the Naked 2

I have moved my blog! It is now located at www.rebeccashoresmua.com/ check my Index of Post to see my posts that are on this website and follow me on Bloglovin so you can see my new posts!

I recently landed a job at my local Sephora & I waned to have more of the makeup they carried, so I bought the Urban Decay Naked 2. Since this is a pretty popular palette I plan on doing a few tutorials with it soon.

Prime your lids! 

Apply Pistol (light grayish-brown shimmer) all over the lid. I use a Mac 242 for this step.

Apply your base shadow (matte, and close to your skintone). I am using MAC Blanc Type (matte, cream). Apply it from the crease to the brow. I use a Sigma E60 for this step.

Apply Tease (matte cream, pale cool-brown) from the crease to the brow bone and then blend it out. I use a Sigma E45 to apply and a MAC 217 to blend.

Apply Busted (deep cool-brown, shimmer) into the crease and upwards. I use a Sigma E45.

Blend it out! I use a MAC 217.

Apply Blackout (matte, black) to the outer V. I use a Sigma E30 for this.

Blend the edges only to keep the black deep and the elongated shape.

Add Verve to the inner corner and blend upwards. I use a Sigma E45 for this.

Run Pistol under the lash line. I use a Sigma E30.

Add some Blackout to the outer quarter to help elongate the eye even more. I use a Sigma E30 again.

Blend the two shades together.

Add Verve to the inner third of the lower lash line. I use, surprise surprise, a Sigma E30.

Optional: Add some winged liner. You can also just run a dark shadow or kohl liner and smudge it out along the lash line, that'd be just as lovely.

Curl your lashes and add some mascara! 

I also tight lined with a black liner and lined my waterline with a nude liner and added lashes.

I paired this look with a cool, soft pink lip and cheek.

I am starting out with my lids primed with Urban Decay Primer Potion.

I then used a Sigma E60 to sweep Mac Blanc Type from the lashline to brow bone.

Next, I used Urban Decay Naked from the crease to half way to the brow on a E45 by Sigma.

Still using the E45, I placed Mac Copperplate in the crease.

Then I blended with a Sigma E25.

 

 Next, I added Mac Concrete to the outer part of my crease.

.

Blend.

Using an E30 pencil brush I run Urban Decay Naked under my lower lash line.

Then Mac Concrete about a quarter of the way in.

Blend those shadows. I also used the Sigma E45 to add Mac Floof in the inner corner and Mac Mylar along my brow bone.

Using a thin paint brush I draw a line that follows the line of my lower lash line. I am using Mac Blacktrack gel liner.

The line doesn't go over the crease or it will look odd.

I then draw a line back towards my lashes to create the wing.

I then fill in the wing.

Then I extended the wing a bit.

Using a Sigma E65 I press the liner against the lashes.

I then smooth over the line and make it the desired thickness.

I am now using a Sephora angled liner to press Mac Carbon over the liner.

Tightline and line your waterline with a nude liner, then add black mascara.

This step is optional: take an angled liner brush and run a nude to white line right under the wing.

Blend of the white line a bit.

And you're done!
