Hello ladies.
Well a couple days ago I gave a "verbal" tutorial on how to create the arabic eye look. Today I decided to make a photo tutorial so here it goes!!!
First, here's what an arabic eye usually looks like:
Pic#1 - Okay, now that we have an idea as to what we're looking for, here are the products that I used today. I always like to keep some makeup remover on hand just in case I make a mistake.
Other products: MAC Fluidline in Blacktrack
MAC Eyeshadow in Black Tied (not shown)
Rimmel Kohl Liner in Black (white as an option... see later)
Stila Eyeshadow Trio
Diorshow Unlimited Mascara
MAC 266SE Brush
Random Angled Brush (with softer bristles)
Q-Tips
Pic#2 - Start off with a clean face. Apply foundation and anything else as you normally would (although I didn't today - SORRY!).
Pic#3 - Line eyes using kohl liner. Make sure not to line inner and outer corners. Line top/bottom waterlines (it adds intensity).
Pic#4 - Use gel/liquid liner and line your upper lash line. Extend the liner past your tear duct.
Pic#5 - Line lower lash line and connect the 2 lines, making sure you keep the tip nice an pointy.
Pic#6 - Now go to the outer corner of your eye, and follow you lower lash line. Extend liner past it, making the liner go slightly on and upward angle.
Pic #7 - Join the line with the upper lash line - making a wing.
Pic#8 - Go over the liner with the kohl pencil, going over the waterline as well. I went over the liner with an angled brush and Black Tied e/s to soften it up a little. *NOTE* My friend has small eyes and likes to use a white liner on her waterline to make her eyes look bigger.
Pic#9 - Apply a pale shimmery shadow on you lid and up to your brow bone. You either want you shadow to be very dark or light. Refrain from using bright colours because the liner is dark enough already and adding colour will clash.
Pic#10 - Curl lashes and apply mascara.

And you're done! Keep lips neutral so that attention is drawn to your eyes.
Hope this tutorial helped ladies!
