Aquilah's Neutral Tutorial

Okay ya'll, this is my first tutorial, so PLEASE bear with me! I still can't get my camera to pick up my e/s right with my lids closed. Hopefully this is good enough though

1. Start with a clean face.



2. If you use primer, apply after moisturizing and wait 5-10 minutes before applying foundation.



3. Apply concealer. Blend well with either a concealer brush or sponge. I use a sponge.



4. Apply your powder, blush, and either bronzer or MSF. I used Porcelain Pink MSF and Milani Luminous Blush here.



5. Apply UDPP, or other e/s primer such as MAC paint. Let sit for a minute, and then apply MAC CCB (I used Improper Copper here).



6. Apply MAC Say Yeah (or similar color) to lid.



7. Apply MAC All That Glitters (or similar color) above crease.



8. Apply MAC B-Rich (or similar color ~ I've also used Old Gold Pigment) to crease.



9. Apply MAC Shroom (or similar color) to brow. Blend well. You can also blend colors after each e/s is applied.



11. Apply eyeliner to upper and lower lid, or you can use an e/s for your lower lid. I used MAC Rich Ground Fluidline here, and MK Signature Eyeliner in Charcoal for my waterline. Curl lashes, then apply your lash primer and mascara. Apply wax to brows.

12. Apply brow powder to wax in a light feathering motion, or by lightly "dotting" the powder on the wax. I used Physicians Formula Wonder Brow in Dark Brown and Ardell Brow Powder in Mink Brown.

13. Before applying any lippies, this is about what I look like...

14. Apply lipliner, lipstick, and/or lipgloss. Here I used MK Signature Lipliner in Dark Berry with MAC Prrr Lipglass.

Voila! My simple neutral tutorial! BTW, I look pale when I start out, but the foundation/powder set and look perfect by the time I'm done, as you can tell! Forgive me please for the quality of the pics! Especially the e/s parts! One day I will get my camera to work WITH me not AGAINST me https://forum.makeuptalk.com/images/smilies8/moa.gif
