Let's get started!

Step 1: Prime your eyes (I used Urban Decay Primer Potion) and then use whatever creamy black pencil you have to make a thick line along your upper lashes (Black Bean Jumbo Pencil from Nyx, in my case).
Pasul 1: Folositi un primer pentru a face machiajul sa reziste (Urban Decay Primer Potion) si apoi faceti o linie groasa de-a lungul genelor cu un creion negru cremos (eu am folosit un Jumbo Pencil de la Nyx in nuanta Black Bean).

Step 2: Smudge the line you created with a pencil brush.
Pasul 2: Intindeti linia creata cu o pensula in forma de creion.

 Step 3: Apply white creamy pencil above the black line. It doesn't matter if it's messy for now. I used Jumbo Pencil in Milk.
Pasul 3: Deasupra liniei negre aplicati niste creion cremos alb (Jumbo Pencil in nuanta Milk), nu conteaza daca este putin dezordonat, il vom uniformiza imediat.

Step 4: Blend the white pencil with a fluffy brush.
Pasul 4: Intindeti creionul alb cu o pensula pufoasa.

Step 5: Reapply the black if necessary.
Pasul 5: Reaplicati creionul negru daca e nevoie.

Step 6: This is the fun part! Apply the Blue Brown pigment over the entire lid and up to the crease. You will notice that when it's over the black it has a different colour than on top of the white.
Pasul 6: Aici vine partea amuzanta :D Aplicati pigmentul Blue Brown pe toata pleoapa pana in pliu. Veti observa ca acesta capata diverse reflexe in functie de baza pe care a fost aplicat :)


Step 7: Apply a highlight colour on your brow bone and in the inner corner, I used Virgin from Urban Decay's Naked.
Pasul 7: Aplicati culoarea de highlight pe arcada (sub sprancene) si in coltul intern pentru a ilumina privirea. Eu am folosit Virgin din trusa Naked de la Urban Decay.

Step 8: Apply the same pigment on your lower lid, line your eyes with a black pencil and use your favourite mascara.
Pasul 8: Am aplicat pigmentul si pe pleoapa de jos, m-am dat cu creion negru si am folosit rimelul meu preferat :D


Step 9: I applied a plummy blush and then I used a light coloured lip pencil to neutralize the pigment in my lips and on top I used Nyx Round Lipstick in Goddess with some Avon lipgloss.
Pasul 9: Spre final am aplicat un blush pruna si am folosit un creion de buze intr-o nuanta deschisa pentru a neutraliza pigmentul natural al buzelor mele. Peste creion am folosit rujul Goddess de la Nyx si un gloss de la Avon.


I love how well the pigment seems to reflect the highlights in my hair.
Imi place la nebunie cum par sa se reflecte suvitele mele in fardul de la ochi :D

Where would you wear this look and what outfit would you choose? 
Unde si cu ce ati purta acest machiaj? :)
