Look For The Day - Elongating You Eyes

I like to pair a bright lip with a dramatic winged liner, it really is the only time that I will wear neutral tones on my eyes. I recently started practicing different techniques to elongate my eyes, giving them the effect of appearing more almond shape. Contouring is sometimes mistaken for just being focused on the face and yet it is so effective on your eyes to change your appearance altogether! Just look at this picture before, on the left I have elongated eyes with sharp winged liner and contoured eyes and the other is with dark eyeshadow and shorter winged liner.





When I posted this look on my facebook page I had a huge response and even requests for details on products I used and of course, what my readers want, my readers get! I am going to list the Mac eyeshadows that I used, but remember that matte products are the best for contouring.

    4. I've already preorder all the lipsticks, I don't know what to do with lipliners: from what I see here, Magenta is great with Heroine, Embrace me would be fine also for Silly, and Lasting sensation (permanent) would be fine for Ablaze. These are only conjectures, since I haven't seen the collection in person, but I'm afraid tho spend too much money with lipliners similar to something permanent, or that I already have! It's sad and stupid to decide too soon and without seeing items, but here, in Italy, or I do like this, or I get nothing at all!

    5. I know that Heroine wont be as warm / pink as magenta and Lasting Sensation is LE at least for us here in Australia. I am wondering if Silly is going to be a brighter version of 'In Sync' like a more bubble gum pink
