Hi. Welcome back to pursebuzz.com. Today, I'm gonna be doing Doll Eyes #2. As you can see, I have my new background here for NYX. Every time you see this background, it means that I'm going to be using my NYX package so today is Doll Eyes. This month of August is Doll Eyes and my Doll Eyed look for the day is a smoky eye, kind of a pointy look at the end.

I've used a lot of packing on just to darken the colors so that you can see the technique but you can use this during the day, just use a little softer color and it'll look really great, so, first thing is my face. What you can use is a concealer base or you can use your foundation even or you can use a pink pot like a MAC Painterly. Just something neutral that you could use as a base, so I'm gonna do that right now. I'm going to apply that all over my lid from here.

And you just apply that all over from lash line to brow bone. Kinda blending it in with my finger here. Once you have that, the next thing is to open your eyes really big. Make sure if you have a crease that the folds are all the way in and your eyelids I guess neatly tucked in just so that you can get this look even. Hopefully, I can get this look even while I'm doing it on camera 'cause typically it's a couple of wiping down and fixing up, but, you never know.

So, next thing is I just take my shadow and this is my Black Sparkle and a pencil brush. Looks like this. This is my MAC 219 and I'm gonna look at my eye and see where this ends. This right here ends where my eyebrow ends, right here. I know you don't see it but I really do have hair right here. So it ends right about there so I'm gonna do the same thing on this side.

Try to get it as even as possible. The next thing is you're gonna create a really small, kind of a dotted line so you know what you're doing. Tucked a little bit inward. So right about here. So I'm just gonna create a soft line, nothing too hard. Your NYX Jumbo Pencil and Pots and Pans. It's a silver.

And you're going to draw a little line right here and you're going to cover up your eyelid and you'll leave a little bit right there, open up. So you're gonna kinda color this in. Almost looks like a shark fin. And you're gonna take that same concealer brush you have.

Use the other side and you're gonna smooth it out so this is the white one and you're gonna put a small line right here and what this will do is soften that line but kinda give you a guideline. It's all about building up a guideline first before you can create that point and you can add just a little bit right here

so that later when you add your shadow, nothing's so dark. Oops. I dropped my pencil there. Put a little bit right there. With this color, you can kinda bring it up, too, upward, just like that. The next thing is you're going to take-- you can take your NYX brush and you just take any other flat brush like this, dip it into your Black Sparkle and you're gonna put some on your eyelid on the outer part right here.

Put on your inner corner and you're gonna concentrate only on the eyelid with the intense black and then we're gonna push it upward. This part right here, I really like to just start off with my pencil brush and just outline it.

So that way the lines are soft and you won't have such a hard time blending later. So once you've got that color in there, you're gonna take your brush and kinda blend it in, make everything all smooth. You're going to take a brush where you can just dab a little bit of-- I'll show you here. Your white powder. It's called Pearl White,

and you're just gonna put just a little bit. Tap your brush. Just a little bit right here, in the middle. Kind of opening your eyes up just a little bit and break the monotony of the dark colors and that same brush that you have, don't put it into the shadow but just bring this color and soften it up so you're gonna bring it outward and soften that line.

Okay. Then the next thing is you're going to take the other brush. This is my Sally's one and I'm going to dip it into the white and you're gonna dab it right here along this line and just soften that up. And you're going to put a little bit as a highlighter. Oops. Got carried away there. NYX brush,

and you're just going to soften up this line right here, going back and forth. Kind of bringing this color upward and it should lighten up, and then check to make sure that it's even. This is one of the harder ones where if it's not even, it doesn't look great but you guys clean up everything with the Q-tip. Here, I like to clean it up and soften it with the pencil brush just so I can keep that point form to remain.

So you're gonna take-- After you've soften that line up, you're gonna take your Pearl White and your flat brush and you're just gonna dab it right over...here. We get all the way up to our brow bone.

Soften it up just a little bit there. Bring it in. You can use any lighter color, shade that you want. If this is too intense, you can just, you know, lighten it up a little bit or just not use as much as I did. So I'm just gonna put a little bit of shimmer right here while softening that line up.

It looks really cool once it's-- once you're zoomed out right now, it might look a little funky so once you've got everything all blended-- make sure there's no extra little bit of pearl shimmer there in the middle. Again, put your eyeliner on. I'm going to be using NYX Eyeliner, black,

and I'm just gonna create one line right here. I know typically everyone pulls their eye like that but I don't like to do that. I only do that when I forget. So it's a little bit harder but in the long run, it's a lot better for your eye. I'm going to two-thirds of the way. Then I'm gonna go over it with an angle brush. This is my MAC 266.

Just into that Black Sparkle and get that extra thick shimmery line. And for the inner corner, I use that Pots and Pans, my crayon. It's a little thicker so I have to clean it up with the Q-tip.

Oh, guess I don't have to. Okay. Got lucky there. And just blend it a little bit right here and that's almost your complete look, except put some mascara on. Do that real quick. So now that I have my mascara on, the last thing I like to do is I like to mix my chrome shadow with a little bit of a gloss so I'm just gonna take this, Bath & Body Works gloss,

put a little bit on my hand, mix it with my Pearl White. I'm just gonna mix the two and what's it going to do is just give you a light shimmer on your lips so your emphasis will be on your dramatic eyes and that's my Doll Eye #2 look. Thanks again for joining me her at pursebuzz.com and you guys have a good one. Buh-bye.
