Momma's feelin blue

Everyone needs a little blue eyeshadow now and then


Start out by placing a little blue tinted paint onto your eyelid, leaving a little space in the inner corners toward the nose







Choose a color for your brow highlight, I chose vellum because it is a highlight color with a little blue tint. I chose white frost for the inner corners because it gives a great contrast when using really bright colors






I chose Tilt to use in the upper part of the crease











Pack your blue on top of the blue paint you placed earlier using a flat brush, I am using cobalt which is a MAC pro color, but I love Electric Eel, Cool Heat and Swimming for other choices

















Blend upwards into the tilt or lighter blue that you used








Add a dark blue eyeliner, I used a pearlglide eyeliner in auto de blue










Fill in brows and add mascara










Finish off with some foundation and blush and add a light lipstick, you could use a bolder lipstick, but as a personal preference, I choose to play up one feature at a time
