Gold/Olive Eye Makeup

Here is a look I created a month ago. It's a little arabesque with the double winged liner, but real Arabic makeup would generally be more dramatic than this: with heavy black liner on both top and bottom lash line.

You can always play this look up and make it look more Arab if you want, but if you like your makeup light than this look alone may be too much.

Enjoy!





To get the look:
EYES
1. Place an Antique Gold color all over the inner and middle lid. The gold I used is from L.A Colors Shimmering Loose Pigment in Sunshine.
2. Place a shimmery olive color all over the outer lid, and blend into the gold. The color I used was Sumptuous Olive from MAC.
3. Add a dark brown color to the outer v and blend into the outer crease and the olive shadow.
4. Use the same olive color on the outer crease and blend into the dark brown.
5. Use any matte light cream shadow as a highlight color.
6. Use black gel liner on the top lid and wing out.
7. Use same gel liner on the bottom lid. Begin at the outer corner and wing out. Fill in the water line. (To make your eye makeup more arabesque you want to make the liner heavier under the lower lashes)

CHEEKS
1. Contour with Hoola Bronzer
2. Add Nyx Terra Cotta to the apples of the cheeks

LIPS
1. NYX lip liner in chocolate
2. Shell Lipstick from Mary Kay.
