Eyeshadow

When working on Meg's face to practice my eyeshadow technique, I first had to observe what shape eyes she had. I noticed that she had a slight downturn at the outside of her eyes and so I wanted to work with this to transform an uplift to to Megs eye. To do this I have shadowed the eyeshadow above the eyelid crease to make her eyelids look higher. I have also created a neat lifting flick on the outer eyes to create a lift on the outer eyes. 

For this cat eye look in our technical lesson I have experimented using my Aqua Colour palette instead of my powder eyeshadow palettes. Our aim was to create an intense black cat eye on our model, and so I felt that by using my aqua palette I'll be able to get the strong density that I wanted to grasp. I used the 90 degree angle in the inside of the eyes to enhance the length of the eye. 

These images show two looks similar to what I want to create in my smokey eye beauty image. I am aiming to keep this look quite dark rather than colourful as I am focusing my other four images on bright energetic colours.
