Does anyone know what kind of eyeshadow this is? (Or whatever is on her eyes?)

 

[Petit Lucille]

i am not greatly skilled with make up, but i recall once a video where they were puting lip gloss on the eyes and i thought that could be dangerous and strange, but i did it and if you have a long lasting one, it looks fairly good. of course, i might be wrong as my knowledge in make up is limited.

^^I remember MAC makes a pigment called reflects pearl pigment, and it gives exactly that look when applied to the skin. It's a pro only product though.

I think if you want to apply a clear gloss, make sure the ingredients are not chemically harsh and would irritate your eyes.

^MAC has a clear gloss that can be applied to the eyes as well.

Curling tongs ... you can find step by step instructions online, in how to use certain tools to achieve such looks but ... yeah, tongs.

You can also take a curling iron and wrap no more than one inch of hair around the barrel of the curling iron, holding it vertically. Continue curling your hair until all the sections of your hair are curled. Once you are finished curling, run your fingers through your hair to gently loosen the curls. Apply a flexible hold hair spray and you are good to go!

[Petit Lucille]

YES! that's the one.. i use that function because i always thought it's easier to refer to without going to other sites..

How can do this to my eyebrows without dying them? They look temporary, especially on Sasha. Is there some kind of a coloured gel?

 

[loonaka]

wow that's really pretty^^ I think I could do something like that with my brows since they're to light, but I have no idea how
