  • MAC Eyeshadow Swiss Chocolate (reddish brown)

STEP BY STEP TUTORIAL:

  1. Apply a highlight beneath the brow bone. I’m using MUFE  Pearl from the Artist Palette. Then, apply black base over the entire eyelid. I’m using NYX’S Jumbo Pencil in Black Bean.
  2. Apply MAC’s Swiss Chocolate which is a reddish brown shade to the crease as a transitional base color.
  3. Then, apply MUFE in Taupe Gray over the lid. Blend.
  4. Layer a black eyeshadow over the taupe gray and apply on the lid. I used Onyx from the MUFE palette.
  5. Blend upwards towards the crease to soften the look.
  6. Apply MUFE Pink Granite to the brow bone and blend to soften the look. This will create a beautiful gradient effect and make the look more wearable and less harsh.
  7. Apply a black eye pencil to the lower lashline.
  8. Smudge MAC’s Swiss Chocolate + MUFE Onyx to the lower lashline.
  9. Apply false lashes and mascara.
  10. Finish with a shimmery white pigment to inner corners for a highlight.
