Makeup Monday: Neutral Smokey Eye with Bold Blue Eye Liner

Happy Monday Everyone!

For this Makeup Monday I decided to go a little bolder with the look sos I am going to be utilizing electric blue eyeliner!

So let’s get started!

First I am going to take my Elf Eyelid Primer and prime my eyes.

Next I am going to take my Maybelline 24 Hour Color Tattoo in bronze and I am going to apply that to my inner corners.

Then I am going to take my Covergirl Pigment Eye Shadow in dark brown and I am going to apply that to my outer corners and my crease.

Next I am going to take my NYX Electric Blue Liquid Eyeliner and I am going to do a thin line near my inner corners and wing it out very dramatically.

Then I am going to use my Wet N’ Wild Mega Impact Mascara and apply it generously to my top and bottom eyelashes.

And here is the completed look!

Makeup Monday: Gray&Pink EOTD

Hello makeup mavens!

This tutorial is going to be a gray and pink makeup look that I created!

Hope you like it and let's get started!

So first I primed my eyes using my Elf eyelid primer. I am loving this primer by the way.

Then I took my Elf Flawless Eye Shadow palette and using the light gray color I just applied that to my inner lid.

Next I took my Maybelline 24 Hour Color Tattoo in Pink Rebel and I applied that to my outer corners.

I did apply lashes and they were by Elf as well. Then I took my Elf Liquid Eyeliner and I covered the band of my lashes without winging it out.

Finally I took my Wet N' Wild Mega Impact Mascara and applied that to my top and bottom lashes.

And this is the finished look!

Well I hope you guys enjoyed this tutorial!

MAKEUP MONDAY: Pink/Purple EOTD

Happy Monday everyone!

For this Makeup Monday post I am going to show you how to create this really elegant pink and purple eye shadow look.

Let's get started

First I am going to start by priming my eyes. The primer that I am using right now is by e.l.f.

Next I am going to take a white and apply it to half of my crease and into my tear ducts. This will make you eyes look brighter and more awake.

Then I am going to take my pink and apply it all over my lid right beneath the white and into my crease.

Now I am taking my deep purple color and I am going to apply that above the white and into my outer crease.

Now that I am finished with my eyeshadow I am going to take my liquid eyeliner and create a strong cat eye careful not to drag it into my inner corners but focus it on the outer half of my eye.

Finally to finish off the look I am going to take my mascara and apply about 50 million coats. (Not really but you get the idea.)

And this is the finished look.

I hope you guys enjoyed this tutorial. Feel free to recreate this look and show me on Twitter and Instagram using the hashtag #EbonyJayMakeupMonday.

MAKEUP MONDAY: Green/Gold EOTD

For this Makeup Monday post I decided to try a green and gold eye shadow look that would not be too overwhelming.

It's really simple, let's get started.

First I prime my eyes of course. As you all know I do not use regular eye shadow primer I just use my Cinema Touch foundation.

Yes it looks crazy know but it gets better.

Next I take a gold color from my Italia Deluxe Color Chart and I apply that to my lid and also to my inner corners.

Next I take a green color from that same palette and apply it to my crease and also create a strong cat eye with it. Also I apply it under my water line.

Then I take my Starlooks eye liner pencil and line my water line. Also I take my liquid eyeliner and line my lid and create a cat eye along the green eye shadow.

Finally I just take my Boots 97 mascara and apply a million coats of it.

I apologize for the crazy look in my eyes.

I got a lot of great comments for this look and I was really happy with it and if you guys try it out tweet me/instagram a picture and use the hashtag #ebonyjaymakeupmonday.
