This tutorial shows you how you can enhance your green eyes. To make your green eyes pop, you dress them with colours that contrast with green. These are always colours that lie on the opposite side if the colour wheel from green. Have a read of our recent tutorial introducing the colour wheel. This tutorial will give you a bit of background on colour theory, and how this can be applied to your make up application.

Although the colours in this tutorial work especially well with green eyes, they can in fact be used with any eye colour. The theory is around choosing colours which compliment other colours. You may be wearing green clothing, and want an eye shadow to contrast with this colour. Either way, colour theory works the same. Below are some suggestions of colours to contrast with your green eyes (or your green clothing). Enjoy!

Throughout July and August, we asked you to send in an image of an eye shadow look that you would like to learn how to create. The person with the winning entry would have their chosen look made into a tutorial, and they would win all of the products used to create it!

Nicki from Christchurch sent us this image, and we LOVE it! Congratulations Nicki, all the products listed on this page are on their way to you.

Create this look using EyeSpice Products

Face products you will need:
- Heavenly Naturals Pure Mineral Foundation in a shade suitable to your skin colour
- FaceFront CheekUP Blush Powder in Afundadoodle or a shade suitable to your skin colour
- OCC Lip Tar in Hush or Conquest

Eye products you will need:
- The base colour is FaceFront Paint Me Perfect in Julie’s Revenge
- For the crease colour, use either FaceFront Paint Me Perfect in Death By Rubies (for a darker crease), or OCC Loose Colour Concentrates in Cherry Bomb (for the pink colour shown in the photo – but be very light-handed with this colour as it can be very intense)
- Also use OCC Loose Colour Concentrates in Glisten
- For the inner corner highlight use OCC Loose Colour Concentrates in Platonic
- We recommend using Heavenly Naturals Mix Drops with the inner corner highlight colour, but this is optional
- As an eye liner, use Coastal Scents Gel Liner in True Black

Brushes you will need:
- Sigma SS150 Large Powder Brush, or Sigma SS182 Buffer Brush
- Sigma SS239 Eye Shading Brush
- Sigma SS224 Tapered Blending Brush
- Sigma SS219 Pencil Brush
- Sigma SS266 Small Angle Brush or Sigma SS209 Eye Liner Brush
- Sigma SS187 Duo-Fibre Brush (optional)

Step One (Base): Apply Heavenly Naturals Pure Mineral Foundation with a Sigma SS150 Large Powder Brush, or Sigma SS182 Buffer Brush. As this look has a large amount of colour around the eyes, you want to make sure your skin is buffed to a very smooth finish to ensure any imperfections are well camouflaged. Buff in an egg beater like motion. Don’t be afraid of intense motion. The more you buff, the more luminous your face will appear, as buffing creates more even coverage.

Step Two (Eyes): As an optional step, apply your eye shadow base. We use FaceFront Survival Paint. Because the products used in this tutorial are so vibrant and long lasting, it is not imperitive that you use a base prior to applying.

Step Three (Eyes): Using your Sigma SS239 Eye Shading Brush, apply FaceFront Paint Me Perfect in Julie’s Revenge to the lid, from the crease down.

Step Four (Eyes): If you want a darker crease colour to give your eyes more depth, use FaceFront Paint Me Perfect in Death By Rubies for your crease colour. If you want to create the look exactly as it is in this image, use OCC Loose Colour Concentrates in Cherry Bomb. Apply your crease colour with a Sigma SS224 Tapered Blending Brush. Apply a very small amount at a time, and build up to the required depth. Apply in small circles at the outer corner of your eye then sweep the brush in a windscreen wiper like motion across your crease. Use a Sigma SS219 Pencil Brush to bring this  crease colour from the outer corner, down under your eye too.

Step Five (Eyes): To diffuse the edges of the eye pigment, apply a small amount of OCC Loose Colour Concentrates in Glisten. Blend this out well around the edges of your upper and lower lid with your Sigma SS224 Tapered Blending Brush.

Step Six (Eyes): Using your Sigma SS219 Pencil Brush, apply a dab of OCC Loose Colour Concentrates inPlatonic to the inner corner of your eye. Pull this colour up to blend into the upper lid, and pull it down across the inner half of the bottom lid. To create more depth here, dip your brush in a drop of Heavenly Naturals Mix Drops, and then into your inner corner highlight colour. Apply this directly underneath the inner corner of your eye to create a very bright-eyed appearance.

Step Seven (Eyes): Using your Sigma SS266 Small Angle Brush or Sigma SS209 Eye Liner Brush, apply Coastal Scents Gel Liner in True Black to both your upper and lower water line.

Step Eight (Eyes): Apply two coats of your favorite mascara, and your eyes are done!

Step Nine (Cheeks): Using either your powder foundation brush, or a Sigma SS187 Duo-Fibre Brush, apply FaceFront CheekUP Blush Powder in Afundadoodle to the apples of your cheeks, and then pull the colour up towards your temples.

Step Ten (Lips): Using your Sigma SS209 Eye or Lip Liner Brush, apply OCC Lip Tar in Hush or Conquest to your lips.

This tutorial is for a full face of makeup. The products used in this tutorial represent a good set of products to have in your makeup bag for any occasion. For something more wearable for the day time, try swapping the strong colours used in this tutorial, out for greys, silvers, browns or golds. The techniques used in application remain the same, just the colours differ. To help you in determining what colours you should use, have a look at our upcoming blogs related to eye colour, and the best shades to mix together in one look.

There is not a lot we would change with this particular chosen look. One thing that could be done to top the look off perfectly, would be to create a slightly darker and nicely shaped eye brow. For more information on this, have a read of our recent blog showing how to create perfect brows. Isn’t it funny that you didn’t notice the eye brows when you first looked at the image, but now that we have pointed it out to you, it’s hard NOT to notice. It’s one of those things. Once you start to perfect your own eye brows, you will notice those of others immediately!

Have fun creating this look, and thanks again Nicki for an original, vibrant competition entry.

We love MissChievous’ s eyes! Learn how she gets them looking this great!

What you will need:
- An eye brow pencil or eye liner pencil in a colour slightly darker than your natural eye brow colour
- Heavenly Naturals Mineral Eye Brow Tint in a colour similar to your natural eye brow colour
- Apply your eye brow tint with a Sigma SS266 Small Angle Brush

Create this look using EyeSpice Products:

Products you will need:

- Coastal Scents Gel Liner in Indigo Blue
- Heavenly Naturals Mineral Eye Pigment in Mystery or Genius
- Coastal Scents Gel Liner in True Black, or your favorite black eye liner pencil
- Heavenly Naturals Mineral Eye Pigment in Emo
- HeavenlyNaturals Mineral Eye Pigment in Vanilla Crush or a highlight shade from your Coastal Scents 88 Piece Makeup Palette

- Eyebrows: FaceFront Survival Paint and Heavenly Naturals Eyebrow Tint in Jet Black or Brunette
- Lips: OCC Lip Tar in Conquest or Complex

Brushes you will need:
- Sigma SS275 Angled Shading Brush
- Sigma SS224 Tapered Blending Brush
- Sigma SS219 Pencil Brush
- Sigma SS266 Small Angle Brush
- Sigma SS239 Eye Shading Brush
- Sigma SS209 Lip and Eye Liner Brush (for lips)

Step One: Apply Coastal Scents Gel Liner in Indigo Blue to your upper lid using a fluffy brush such as a Sigma SS275 Angled Shading Brush, but really any fluffy brush will do. Note, we normally apply gel liners using fine tipped brushes, but for this look, we are applying it right across the lid, rather than in a defined line. Blend this out well so it is not too thick. Create the basic shape high on the lid, tapering out to a rough point at the outer corner and pulling the colour down under the outer lower lid.

Step Two: Using your Sigma SS224 Tapered Blending Brush, start applying Heavenly Naturals Mineral Eye Pigment in Mystery or Genius in your crease. This can be blended across from the outer corner, to the inner corner right to the bridge of the nose. Blend this upwards to just under the eye brow. Bring the colour down across the lower lid, close to the lash line.

Step Three: Take a black eye liner pencil, or your Coastal Scents Gel Liner in True Black. Apply right around the eye using the pencil or your Sigma SS266 Small Angle Brush. Thick on the upper lid, bring down along the lower lash line and across to the inner corner of the eye. Blend this out somewhat using your finger.

Step Four: Use your Sigma SS219 Pencil Brush to apply Heavenly Naturals Mineral Eye Pigment in Emo. Apply directly on top of the black eye liner on your lid, and then across the lash line of your lower lid. Blend this out using the same Sigma SS224 Tapered Blending Brush. Blend, blend, blend. Clean up rouge pigment from your face by rolling a cotton bud firmly across the pigment.

Step Five: Select an appropriate highlight shade. A matte colours such as HeavenlyNaturals Mineral Eye Pigment in Vanilla Crush, or any of the highlight shades in the Coastal Scents 88 Piece Makeup Palette work best. Use your Sigma SS239 Eye Shading Brush to apply small amounts of highlight shade right around your eye, to blur the edges of your eye shadow. If you remove too much of the black, add it back on with your Sigma SS219 Pencil Brush.

Step Six: Ensure you have well defined eye brows for this look. Apply FaceFront Survival Paint Eye and Brow Primer to your eye brow. Using your Sigma SS266 Small Angle Brush, apply Heavenly Naturals Eyebrow Tint in Jet Black or Brunette to fill in your eyebrows. If your eye brows naturally finish short, use your brush to pull the eyebrow pigment out to a point, to extend the line of your eyebrow.

Step Seven: Apply Coastal Scents Gel Liner in True Black to your water line, then apply two coats of mascara.

Step Eight: To effectively erase your lips, either apply your pale liquid concealer or foundation, or apply a very pale OCC Lip Tar such as Conquest or Complex. Apply using your Sigma SS209 Lip and Eye Liner Brush.

Create this look using EyeSpice Products:

Eye products you will need:
- Eyeshadow primer such as FaceFront Survival Paint
- Coastal Scents 88 Piece Makeup Palette
- FaceFront Paint Me Perfect in Skinny Dipper (Optional)
- Coastal Scents Gel Eye Liner in Truffle
- Heavenly Naturals Chubby Cream Eye Shadow in White
- Coastal Scents Gel Eye Liner in True Black
- FaceFront Paint Me Perfect in Butter Me Up (Optional)
- Heavenly Naturals Glitter Eye Liner in Disco Ball

Brushes you will need:
- Sigma SS252 Shader Brush
- Sigma SS224 Tapered Blending Brush
- Sigma SS219 Pencil Brush
- Sigma SS209 Eye Liner Brush
- Sigma SS266 Small Angle Brush

Step One: Apply a small amount of eye shadow primer to your lid. We use FaceFront Survival Paint.

Step Two: The various earthy tones that are used to create this look are made up from shades in the Coastal Scents 88 Piece Makeup Palette. First select a skin-coloured shadow, a few shades darker than your skin tone. Using your Sigma SS224 Tapered Blending Brush, apply this shade to the outer corner of your eyelid and across the crease.

Step Three: From your Coastal Scents 88 Piece Makeup Palette, select a shade slightly darker than the first. Using your Sigma SS219 Pencil Brush take up a little bit of pigment on your brush. This will be used to re-shape the crease, to give your eyes the appearance of being bigger. Use the brush back and forwards to create a faint shadow from your real crease in the middle of your upper lid, towards the bridge of your nose. This false crease shadow will be above your real inner crease. If you need to, use your SSigma SS224 Tapered Blending Brush to fade the shadow out.

Step Four: Again from your Coastal Scents 88 Piece Makeup Palette, select a chocolate brown shade. Apply this to the outer corner of your eye using your Sigma SS252 Shader Brush. With the flat part of the brush, apply this shade as if to coat your upper lashes, which will result in application to the very lower edge of your upper eye lid. Then concentrate the colour in the very outer corner of your eye and crease.

Step Five: Using your Sigma SS224 Tapered Blending Brush, apply FaceFront Paint Me Perfect in Skinny Dipper to your inner, upper lid in a small patting motion. Although this effectively blends into the other colours to create a softer appearance, try not to blend it too much. If you don’t have FaceFront Paint Me Perfect in Skinny Dipper, you could use a lighter shade from your Coastal Scents 88 Piece Makeup Palette, select one lighter than your skin colour to give you a highlight effect.

Step Six: Using your Sigma SS266 Small Angle Brush or your Sigma SS209 Eye Liner Brush, apply Coastal Scents Gel Eye Liner in Truffle to your upper lid, in a line close to the lash line. Allow this line to become thicker as it approaches the outside of your eye, and create a wing out from the very outer corner of your eye. Before the liner dries, smudge the end of the wing out with your finger to soften the point.

Step Seven: With your clean Sigma SS219 Pencil Brush, apply a small amount of Heavenly Naturals Chubby Cream Eye Shadow in White right underneath the brown wing you have created. This creates a more defined shape to your eye shadow look. Ensure the white cream shadow is blended in well with your brush.

Step Eight: Using your Sigma SS266 Small Angle Brush or your Sigma SS209 Eye Liner Brush, apply Coastal Scents Gel Eye Liner in True Black to your water line. Smudge the edge out with your finger, to bring some of the colour down onto your lower lid, close to the lash line. Using your Sigma SS219 Pencil Brush apply your lightest shadow shade to your lower lid. Then graduate to your darker shade which can be applied to the outer corner of your lower lid, again close to the lash line.

Step Nine: To add a bit more shimmer to the lash line, you can add a line of FaceFront Paint Me Perfect in Butter Me Up Up using your Sigma SS209 Eye Liner Brush. This is optional.

Step Ten: Apply Heavenly Naturals Glitter Eye Liner in Disco Ball very close to the upper lash line, and on top of the wing.

Step Eleven: Apply your favourite mascara, and you’re ready to go!

Because this look utilises earthy tones, it is appropriate to wear a bright red colour on your lips. We recommend Obsessive Compulsive Lip Tar in NSFW. Alternatively, a nude lip would go nicely with this look. We recommend Coastal Scents Smacks Lip Gloss (try out Star Dustin). Check out our Handy Hint blog entry on the Perfect Lip.

Create this look using EyeSpice Products:

Eye products you will need:
- Heavenly Naturals Mix Drops
- Dark Corner: Heavenly Naturals Mineral Eye Pigment in Inked
- Turquoise: FaceFront Paint Me Perfect in Early Spring
- Charcoal: Heavenly Naturals Mineral Eye Pigment in Dream Girl or FaceFront Paint Me Perfect in Heroic
- Heavenly Naturals Chubby Cream Eye Shadow in White
- Coastal Scents Gel Liner in Deep Plum 
- Coastal Scents Gel Liner in True Black (optional) 
- Violet: FaceFront Paint Me Perfect in Weekend Warrior or the Coastal Scents 88 Shade Palette (optional)
- Glitter (the key ingredient): Heavenly Naturals Glitter Eye Pigment in Mermaid Scales

Brushes you will need:
- Sigma SS194 concealer brush
- Sigma SS224 tapered blending brush
- Sigma SS219 pencil brush
- Sigma SS266 small angle brush

Step One: Use a flat topped brush such as a Sigma SS194 Concealer Brush to create the outer point to your eye. Dip the end of your brush in Mixing Medium, and then in your dark corner shade (we use Heavenly Naturals Mineral Eye Pigment in Inked). Tap away the excess and apply to the very outer corner of your eye, creating a line sweeping upwards about 1cm. This will create the shape of your eye shadow look. Blend this line very slightly inwards towards your crease to create the shadow with which to develop your blending on.

Step Two: Using your Sigma SS224 blending brush, apply your turquoise colour to the outer corner of your eyelid and blend this using wind screen wiper motions, into your crease and upper half of your eyelid.We use FaceFront Paint Me Perfect in Early Spring. At this stage, the lower half of your upper eyelid remains bare of any pigment.

Step Three: Using a black cream eye liner, apply this to the lower half of your upper lid, from the inner corner (where it is applied at its thinest), to the outer corner. Blend the turquoise and black eye liner together using your Sigma SS194 Concealer brush. The black cream eye liner creates a base. If you don’t have a black cream eye liner, apply your charcoal eye pigment in step four with mixing medium instead. 

Step Four: Continuing to use your Sigma SS194 Concealer brush, pack your charcoal colour on top of the black cream eye liner (we use Heavenly Naturals Mineral Eye Pigment in Dream Girl or FaceFront Paint Me Perfect in Heroic – both have a nice amount of shimmer to them). Ensure a bold colour is achieved. Hint: Make sure you tap excess powder off your brush before applying. If you do end up with a dusting of charcoal pigment on your cheeks, brush this away with a large powder brush (rather than your fingers which will make it smudge)!

Step Five: Using your Sigma SS224 Tapered Blending Brush dry (without any pigment), blend the turquoise and charcoal colours together to create a gradient transition between the two, rather than a sharp line. Add a small amount of the darker corner shade (Heavenly Naturals Eye Pigment in Inked) to your blending brush, and add this to the very outer corner and a small way along your crease. This will help with the transition between turquoise and charcoal.  

Step Six: Apply Heavenly Naturals Chubby Cream Eye Shadow in white to just underneath your brow bone and to the inner corner of your eye. Blend this into your brow bone lightly using your Sigma SS194 Concealer Brush. This is your highlight shade, so ensure it remains light without taking on too much of the surrounding colour. Smudge with your finger into the inner eye. To create a more defined line at the outer corner of your eye, you can apply some white cream eye shadow under this line, and also blend in with your Sigma SS194 Concealer brush. To add more definition and shimmer, you can apply a shimmer highlight shade on top of the cream eye shadow under your brow bone and to the inner corner of your eye. Use your Sigma SS219 Pencil Brush to reach the small area in your inner eye. We recommend any of the OCC highlight shades for this.

Step Seven: Using your Sigma SS266 Small Angle Brush, apply Coastal Scents Gel Liner in Deep Plum to your lower lash line. Pull this line lightly out past the outer corner of your eye (don’t apply too thickly). If you feel that this line needs setting, apply a small amount of violet pigment on top, and blend out to create softer edges. We recommend FaceFront Paint Me Perfect in Weekend Warrior, or any of the violet shades within the Coastal Scents 88 Shade Palette. If you want to apply Coastal Scents Gel Liner in True Black to your lower lash line, do this now with the same Sigma SS266 Small Angle Brush.

Step Eight: If you have false eyelash glue, dab a small amount right across your eyelid (from the lash line, up to just below the crease). Dip your finger in Heavenly Naturals Glitter Eye Pigment in Mermaid Scales, and dab on top of the glue to get an even coverage of glitter. If you don’t have glue, you could apply mixing medium or glycerine to your lid instead.

Step Nine: If you are going for false lashes, apply them now, otherwise add a couple of coats of your favourite mascara!

Step Ten: This look is as much about the lips as it is about the eyes. For a dramatic look, apply OCC Lip Tar in Anime, Pagent or Demure to your lips. These shades look great on their own, or mixed with other shades!

Eye products you will need:
- Eyeshadow primer such as FaceFront Survival Paint
- Silver: Heavenly Naturals Mineral Eye Pigment in Tinsel or FaceFront Paint Me Perfect in Xenon Zephyr
- Charcoal: Heavenly Naturals Mineral Eye Pigment in Dream Girl or FaceFront Paint Me Perfect in Heroic
- Coastal Scents Gel Liner in Platinum (optional)
- Coastal Scents Gel Liner in True Black (optional)
- Heavenly Naturals Glitter Eye Liner in Disco Ball (optional)

Brushes you will need:
- Sigma SS239 eye shading brush
- Sigma SS224 tapered blending brush
- Sigma SS219 pencil brush
- Sigma SS209 eye liner brush or Sigma SS266 small angle brush

Step One: Apply a small amount of eye shadow primer to your lid. We use FaceFront Survival Paint.

***Handy hint: To ensure a sharp line where your makeup finishes at the outer corner of your eye, take a strip of opaque sellotape and stick it to your skin in the right position at the corner of your eye. Make sure it slopes from the very outer corner of your eye, up towards the outer edge of your eye brow. This will create the sharp line that can be seen in the photo.

Step Two: Using your Sigma SS239 eye shading brush apply silver eye shadow to the upper eyelid from the inner corner to the outer corner (if you are using tape, don’t be afraid to brush up on top of the tape). Apply the silver high up on your eyelid, but not as far as your eye brow, we will come back to this later. With your Sigma SS219 pencil brush, apply a small amount of silver to the inner corner of your eye. Also apply close to the lash line, underneath your eye, so you end up with silver right around your eye.

Step Three: Using your Sigma SS224 blending brush, apply charcoal to the outer corner of your eyelid and blend this in slowly to the sliver shadow. Eventually you will be sweeping the blending brush right across the lid, but be careful not the spread the colour out too much. You want a nice transition from silver in the inner corner, to charcoal in the outer corner.  You may need to apply more charcoal to the outer corner as you build the dark colour up on the outer eyelid. With your Sigma SS219 pencil brush apply your charcoal shade on the outer corner of the lower lid, close to the lash line.

Step Four (optional): Using your Sigma SS266 small angle brush or your Sigma SS209 eye liner brush, apply Coastal Scents Gel Liner in Platinum to your lower water line.

Step Five (optional): Using your Sigma SS266 small angle brush or your Sigma SS209 eye liner brush, apply Coastal Scents Gel Liner in True Black to your upper lid, in a line close to the lash line. Start the line very thin in the inner eye, and allow it to get thicker as it makes its way towards the outer eye. Apply True Black lightly to the water line right in the inner corner of the eye.

Step Six: To soften the upper edges of the charcoal, take the Sigma SS239 you were using with your silver colour. Dip your brush in the silver shadow and tap away the excess. Apply sparingly under your eye brow, and blend this into the charcoal edges to diffuse the colour out.

Step Seven (optional): For the evenings, add a bit of glam to you look by applying Heavenly Naturals Glitter Eye Liner in Disco Ball (sliver) to you upper eye lid, close to the lash line. This will go over top of the black gel eye liner if you have applied this.

Step Eight: If you used tape to create a straight edge, remove this very gently and you should see a nice crisp line where you make up is applied perfectly.

Step Nine: Apply 2 lashings of your favourite mascara, and you’re ready to go!

Create this look using EyeSpice Products:

Eye products you will need:
- Eyeshadow primer such as FaceFront Survival Paint
- Optional - Heavenly Naturals Mix Drops
- Heavenly Naturals Mineral Eye Pigment in Soulful or for a more burnt gold FaceFront Paint Me Perfect in Butter Me Up
- FaceFront Paint Me Perfect in Bitter Bark
- Coastal Scents Gel Liner in Truffle
- A highlight colour such as a skin-toned colour within your Coastal Scents Contour & Blush Palette, FaceFront Paint Me Perfect in Skinny Dipper or your mineral foundation

Brushes you will need:
- Sigma SS252 shader brush
- Sigma SS275 angled shading brush
- Sigma SS209 eye liner brush or Sigma SS266 small angle brush

Step One: Apply a small amount of eye shadow primer to your lid. We use FaceFront Survival Paint.

Step Two: Put a drop of Heavenly Naturals Mix Drops in the lid of your FaceFront Paint Me Perfect Eye Pigment in Butter Me Up. Using your Sigma SS252 Shader Brush apply this to your upper eyelid from the inner corner to the outer corner. Note, this look can also be created without the use of Mix Drops, creating a slightly less vibrant gold.

Step Three: Using the other side of your Sigma SS252 brush, apply FaceFront Paint Me Perfect in Bitter Bark to the outer one third of your eyelid.  With the tip of your brush, create a point, out past your crease, keeping in line with your lower water line. Ensure Bitter Bark is well blended out to this point and across the crease. Take care when using this dark colour to avoid fall out on your cheeks. Make sure you tap excess pigment off the brush before applying. Check out our other hints for fall out in our blog.

Step Four:  Using either side of your Sigma SS252 brush, lightly blend the two colours together where they meet, so there are no harsh lines.

Step Five: Using your Sigma SS266 small angle brush or your Sigma SS209 eye liner brush, apply Coastal Scents Gel Liner in Truffle to your upper lid, in a line close to the lash line. Before the liner dries, smudge it out with the same brush dipped in a small amount of Bitter Bark pigment. With your Sigma SS266 brush, apply a small amount of Bitter Bark to your lower lash line, from about one third of the way along your eye, to the outer corner of your eye. Use your finger, or a clean Sigma SS275 blending brush to diffuse the colour under your eye.

Step Six: To soften the edges, and bring the colour down if you need to, apply a highlight colour. Using your Sigma SS275 angled shading brush, apply the highlight shade under the brow, and blend into the edges of your eye shadow.

Step Seven: Apply your favourite mascara, and you’re ready to go!

Because this look utilises earthy tones, it is appropriate to wear a bright red colour on your lips. We recommend Obsessive Compulsive Lip Tar in NSFW. Alternatively, a nude lip would go nicely with this look. We recommend Coastal Scents Smacks Lip Gloss (try out Star Dustin). Check out our Handy Hint blog entry on the Perfect Lip.

- Eyeshadow primer such as FaceFront Survival Paint
- Heavenly Naturals Mix Drops
- FaceFront Paint Me Perfect in Heroic, or Heavenly Naturals Mineral Eye Pigment in Emo or Dream Girl
- FaceFront Paint Me Perfect in Weekend Warrier
- FaceFront Paint Me Perfect in Sea Salt
- Coastal Scents Gel Liner in True Black
- A highlight colour such as a skin-toned colour within your Coastal Scents Contour & Blush Palette, FaceFront Paint Me Perfect in Skinny Dipper or your mineral foundation

Brushes you will need:

- Sigma SS224 blending brush
- Sigma SS275 angled shading brush
- Sigma SS219 pencil brush
- Sigma SS209 eye liner brush or Sigma SS266 small angle brush

Step One: Apply a small amount of eye shadow primer to your lid. We use FaceFront Survival Paint.

Step Two: Mix your black pigment with a drop of Heavenly Naturals Mix Drops. Using your Sigma SS252 Shader Brush apply this carefully to your upper eyelid from the inner corner, right across to your outer lid. Create a point out past your crease, keeping in line with your lower water line. This creates the basic shape of your eye shadow look.

Step Three (optional): Using the other side of the same brush, apply Heavenly Naturals Eye Pigment in Emo on top of the base black. This is a matte colour which is what we need in this look. Take care when using this dark colour to avoid black fall out on your cheeks. Make sure you tap excess pigment off the brush before applying. Check out our other hints for fall out in our blog.

Step Four:  Using your Sigma SS266 small angle brush or your Sigma SS209 eye liner brush, apply Coastal Scents Gel Liner in True Black to right across your lower lid, in a line close to the lash line. Before the liner dries, smudge it out with the same brush dipped in a small amount of black pigment.

Step Five: Take your Sigma SS239 eye shading brush and blend FaceFront Paint Me Perfect in Weekend Warrier to the edges of the black, taking this colour higher up on your lid and past the outer corner of your eye. Bring this colour down under the eye by blending it into the black on the lower lid. Use a clean, dry Sigma SS224 blending brush to really diffuse the colour out.

Step Six: Diffuse the bright violet into your skin by using a highlight colour with your Sigma SS275 angled shading brush. Apply both under the brow, and underneath the eye. Use the highlight colour to sharpen the lower line of the point at the outer corner of your eye.

Step Seven: Using your Sigma SS219 pencil brush, apply FaceFront Paint Me Perfect in Sea Salt to the inner corner of your eye, blending up and down from the point. This gives your eyes a more youthful appearance, and will make your eyes pop!

Step Eight: Using your Sigma SS266 small angle brush or your Sigma SS209 eye liner brush, apply Coastal Scents Gel Liner in True Black to your lower water line.

Step Nine: Apply your favourite false lashes and mascara, and you’re ready to go!

Don’t forget to apply a nude lip colour so you don’t detract from your eyes. We recommend Coastal Scents Smacks Lip Gloss. Check out our Handy Hint blog entry on the Perfect Lip.

- Sigma SS209 eye liner brush

Step One: Apply a small amount of eye shadow primer to your lid. We use FaceFront Survival Paint.

Step Two: Dip your Sigma SS252 Shader Brush in a small drop of Heavenly Naturals Mix Drops. Next dip the brush in Heavenly Naturals Eye Pigment in Sleeping Beauty, and tap off any excess product. Apply this to the your eyelid up to the crease, fading out at the edges.

Step Three: Using your Sigma SS239 Shading Brush, apply Heavenly Naturals Eye Pigment in Romantic Notion to the outer corner of your eye, and blend upwards. This creates the basic shape of your eye shadow look.

Step Four:  Again using your Sigma SS239 Shading Brush, apply a small amount of Heavenly Naturals Mineral Eye Pigment in Furious to the very outer corner of your lid and blend a small way into the crease.  Take a clean, dry Sigma SS224 Blending Brush, and lightly blend the colours together.

Step Five: Still using your Sigma SS224 Blending Brush, apply a very small amount of Heavenly Naturals Mineral Eye Pigment in Dream Girl and concentrate this only in the crease. Apply with a very light hand (hint: hold the brush lightly at the end while blending, rather than holding it like a pencil).

Step Six: Apply the highlight shade under your eye brow with your SS275 Angled Shading Brush, and blend into the edge of your eyeshadow to fade out any sharp lines.

Step Seven: Apply Heavenly Naturals Mineral Eye Pigment in Furious to the lower lash line with your Sigma SS219 Pencil Brush.

Step Eight: Using your Coastal Scents Gel Liner in Truffle and your Sigma SS209 eyeliner brush, draw a line of brown on your upper lid, close to the lash line. Smudge the line of gel liner out with your Sigma SS219 Pencil Brush. Apply your gel liner to your lower water line also.

Step Nine: Apply your favourite mascara, and you’re ready to go!

Create this look using EyeSpice products:

Eye products you will need:
- Eyeshadow primer such as FaceFront Survival Paint
- Heavenly Naturals Mix Drops
- Heavenly Naturals Mineral Eye Pigment in Coutour
- Heavenly Naturals Mineral Eye Pigment in Emo, or FaceFront Paint Me Perfect in Heroic
- Heavenly Naturals Mineral Eye Pigment in Tinsel
- Coastal Scents Gel Liner in True Black
- A highlight colour such as a skin-toned colour within your Coastal Scents Contour & Blush Palette, or your mineral foundation

Brushes you will need:
- Sigma SS252 shader brush
- Sigma SS275 tapered blending brush (optional)
- Sigma SS224 blending brush
- Sigma SS209 eye liner brush
- Sigma SS219 pencil brush

Step One: Apply a small amount of eye shadow primer to your lid. We use FaceFront Survival Paint.

Step Two: In the lid of your Heavenly Naturals Eye Pigment in Coutour, add a drop of Heavenly Naturals Mix Drops to your eye pigment and mix to create a thick paste. Using your Sigma SS252 shader brush, press the shadow onto your eyelid from the inner corner, to three quarters the way along your lid.

Step Three: Using your Sigma SS275 tapered blending brush, dip it into your Heavenly Naturals Mineral Eye Pigment in Dream girl or FaceFront Paint Me Perfect in Heroic. Tap off as much excess product as possible. Apply this colour to the outer third of your eyelid. Create the shape of the shadow by drawing this colour out from your outer eye, on the same angle as your lower eyelid. Using your Sigma SS224 blending brush, draw the dark colour from your outer eye and along your crease blending the colour towards your inner eye. Using a clean blending brush, blend the dark colour into your skin to remove harsh lines. If you need to tone this down, use a highlight shade to tone the colour down around the edges. The highlight shade can also be used under your eyelid and drawn out under the dark line to ensure this line is smooth.

Step Four:  Dip your finger tip into your Heavenly Naturals Mineral Eye Pigment in Tinsel and press it gently over your eyelid, on top of the gold colour, and a light dusting on top of the black. Using your SS219 pencil brush, take an additional amount of Tinsel and apply it to your inner eye, blending it into  your eyelid upwards.

Step Five: Using a small brush such as your Sigma SS209 eyeliner brush or your Sigma SS219 pencil brush, draw some of the black colour down under your lower lashes, very closer to the waterline. Blend this out and dab a small amount of Tinsel at the other edge.

Step Six: Using your Coastal Scents Gel Liner in True Black and your Sigma SS209 eyeliner brush, draw a line of black on your upper lid, close to the lash line. Start thin in the inner corner and make slightly thicker as you get to the outer corner. Apply your gel liner to your lower water line also.

Step Seven: Apply two coats of your favourite mascara, and you’re ready to go!

Additional hints:
- With looks that pull out past your eyelid, consider drawing your eyebrows further out and down. To do this, use Heavenly Naturals Eyebrow Tint in an appropriate colour for you. Apply using your Sigma SS266 small angle brush.
- To contour your face using the Coastal Scents Contour & Blush Palette, check out our tutorial on this.
- To add even more sparkle, wait until your black eyeliner has dried, and then apply a coat of Heavenly Naturals Glitter Eyeliner in Disco Ball to your upper eyelid, close to the lash line.

xSparkage shows us how to create personalised face charts in this tutorial. If you are feeling creative, these are great for trialling out particular make-up looks, before you take to your face. We all have different face shapes, and different features, so what works on one person, may not work on another. These face charts are great for those of us that have trouble visualising how a look might appear once applied to our own face.

Face charts are also great when you have created the perfect look, and want to remember what you did and how you did it. Simply fill out one of these charts, and file it away until next time you need it.

Step One: Take a photo of yourself with no makeup on, and your hair pulled back.

Step Two: Convert the photo to a pencil sketch using an online tool such as Dumpr. Save the image.

Step Three: If you can, use a photo manipulation computer application which will allow you to ‘erase’ some of the additional detail on the photo. You want as clean a sketch as possible. At a basic level, you could use the ‘Paint’ application that is installed on most Windows PC’s.

Step Four: Print the sketch out, and take to it with your coloured pencils and crayons!

Create this look using EyeSpice Products:

Step One: Apply a small amount of eye shadow primer to your lid. We use FaceFront Survival Paint.

Step Two: Add a drop of Heavenly Naturals Mix Drops to the lid of your FaceFront Paint Me Perfect Eye Pigment in Early Spring. Mix this to the eye pigment to make a dry paste. Using your Sigma SS252 brush, apply the paste on to your entire lid, blending the colour up towards your outer brow bone.

Step Three: With your Sigma SS224 blending brush, apply Heavenly Naturals Eye Pigment in Lemy Lime to the outer corner of your upper lid. Blend the colour into your crease and up towards your outer brow bone.

Step Four: Using your Sigma SS219 pencil brush, dab Heavenly Naturals Eye Pigment in Kingdom to the very outer crease, blending it in circles to create a shadow. Pull this colour down under the lower lashes, and blend out past the outer corner of your eye.

Step Five: Using a dry blending brush such as the Sigma SS224 or SS275, soften the edges by blending the colours into your skin.

Step Six: Using Heavenly Naturals Chubby Cream Eye Shadow in White, dab a small amount to the inner corner of your eye and blend this out with your finger.

Step Seven: Add a drop of Heavenly Naturals Mix Drops to the lid of your Heavenly Naturals Eye Pigment in Sun. Dab your finger in the pigment and apply gently to your lid, over top of the colours you have already blended. Try not to rub your finger across your lid, as this will smudge the base colours. For a more dramatic look, use Heavenly Naturals Eye Pigment in Unicorn tears as your glitter overcoat. This definitely adds a bit of glitz.

Step Eight: Using your Sigma SS209 thin tipped brush, apply a line of Coastal Scents Gel Liner in True Black to your upper lash line. Apply Coastal Scents Gel Liner in Indigo Blue to your lower lash line (note this is not mentioned in the video tutorial).

Step Nine: Apply your favourite mascara, and before it has properly dried, add some of your glitter eye shadow to the tips of your lashes. They should stick to the mascara while it is still drying.

Step Ten (optional): Using a large powder brush such as your Sigma SS150 or SS187, apply your glitter colour to the very tip of the brush and dab it on to your temple, outer eye and upper cheek bone area. This gives you a pixie appearance, and looks great under party lighting!

Create this look using EyeSpice products:

Step One: Apply a small amount of eye shadow primer to your lid. We use FaceFront Survival Paint.

Step Two: Add a drop of Heavenly Naturals Mix Drops into the lid of your FaceFront Paint Me Perfect Eye Pigment in Early Spring. Mix in enough of the pigment to create a dry paste. Using your Sigma SS252 brush, press the wet shadow onto your entire lid. Using more of the dry pigment, blend the colour up onto your outer lid towards the brow bone.

Step Three: Using one side of your Sigma SS239 brush, press a small amount of OCC Loose Colour Concentrates in Frigid to the inner half of your lid on top of the base colour. Using the other side of your Sigma SS239 brush, press Heavenly Naturals Eye Pigment in Kingdom to the outer half of your lid. Blend the two colours where they meet in the middle of your eyelid.

Step Four: Using your Sigma SS224 blending brush, blend Heavenly Naturals Eye Pigment in Daddy’s Girl into your crease. Sweep the colour up towards your brow bone.

Step Four: To create a shadow, use your Sigma SS224 brush with Heavenly Naturals Eye Pigment in Mystery in your outer crease. Using a dry blending brush, make sure the colours are blended together nicely into your lid.

Step Five: If you need to pull the colour down, or just want to add a highlight to your brow bone, use your Sigma SS275 brush with your highlight colour. We use FaceFront Paint Me Perfect in Skinny Dipper, or OCC Loose Colour Concentrates in Titania.

Step Six: Using your Sigma SS219 pencil brush, sweep your purple colour under the lower lash line and blend into the outer corner of the eye. You can use your Heavenly Naturals Eye Pigment in Daddy’s Girl, or for a darker look, use Heavenly Naturals Eye Pigment in Enchantress. For a more vibrant look, use FaceFront Paint Me Perfect in Weekend Warrior.

Step Seven: Apply a line of black eye liner close to your upper lash line. We use Coastal Scents Gel Liner in True Black with a Sigma SS209 or SS266 brush. To add sparkle, add a line of Heavenly Naturals Glitter Eye Liner in Disco Ball on top of the black liner.

Step Eight: Finish the look off with lashings of your favourite mascara, and some false lashes if you are feeling daring!

We get so many people asking us how to create the most amazingly perfect eyes of our EyeSpice cover girl. Although we don’t have a video tutorial for this, you can follow the below steps to create this look, and dazzle your friends.

This is a complex one! – Grade: Difficult

What you will need:

• Pink – use either Obsessive Compulsive Loose Colour Concentrate in Cherry Bomb, or for a more violet shade, use Heavenly Naturals Eye Pigment in Daddy’s Girl. Another option is to use your blush colour in a more condensed way – we suggest FaceFront BlushUp in Frawn Apawn (this gives you two uses with one product)!
• Gold – We use Heavenly Naturals Eye Pigment in Fancy Schmancy, but you could also use Heavenly Naturals Eye Pigment in Sun, Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Loose Colour Concentrate in Auric, or FaceFront Paint Me Perfect in Bee Incredible (these alternative colours give a more Summery yellow shimmer rather than gold)
• Charcoal – We use Heavenly Naturals Eye Pigment in Dream Girl, or for a darker, smokier evening look, use FaceFront Paint Me Perfect in Heroic – but only use a small amount and blend well.
• Highlight – A highlight shade in a white tone is best used here. It softens out the pink if you choose a very bright shade. We use FaceFront Paint Me Perfect in Snow Cone, or Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Loose Colour Concentrate in Titania. But a skin coloured highlight can also be used to soften harsh edges. Try using your mineral powder foundation.
• EyeLiner – We use Coastal Scents Gel Liner in Indigo Blue or True Black
• Eye Brow Tint – Heavenly Naturals Eye Brow Tint comes in a range of shades to suit your brow colour
• Your favourite mascara and some false lashes if you’re game!

Step One: After applying your Heavenly Naturals Mineral Foundation, apply a small amount of eye shadow primer to your eyelid. We use FaceFront Survival Paint.

Step Two: Using your Sigma SS252 brush, apply pink to the upper lid from just inside the inner corner, to approximately one third of the way across the lid. Also apply this colour to the outer corner of the lid, up to the brow bone.

Step Three: Using the same Sigma SS252 brush, apply the charcoal colour to the upper lid from two thirds of the way along, to the outer corner. Using a clean Sigma SS275 blending brush, blend this charcoal colour up the outer corner of your brow bone to create a diffused blended line between the pink and the charcoal. With a Sigma SS219 pencil brush, apply a small amount of charcoal into the very inner corner of your eye and sweep this upwards almost to the brow bone, blending it to diffuse into the pink colour. Also pull the colour a small way under the inner corner of your lower lid.

Step Four: Using a Sigma SS252 or SS239 brush, dab the gold colour to the very centre of your upper lid, almost to the brow bone. Using a dry Sigma SS275 blending brush, very gently blend the gold into the pink and charcoal on either side. With a very small amount of pigment on your blending brush, blend some gold to the very outer edges of the pink and charcoal colours and create a diffused appearance between the 3 colours. Pull the gold from the temple area, down below the outer corner of the lower eyelid. Using your Sigma SS219 brush, dab a small amount of gold to the lower inner corner of your eye and blend this into the charcoal.

Step Five: Using your Eye liner, draw/paint a thin line below the lower lashes from the center, to the outer corner. Let this dry for half a minute. Also draw/paint a thin line above the top lashes at the lash line.

Step Six: Using your Sigma SS209 or SS266 brush, sweep a line of charcoal from the middle of the lower lash line (on top of the eye liner), out past the corner of your outer eye to create the appearance of larger eyes.

Step Seven: If you need to use your highlight colour to tidy up any edges, highight your brow (just below your outer eye brow, or to add a bit of highight to the inner corner of your eye, do this now.

Step Eight (Finishing Touches): Add a line of eyeliner to your water line, coat your lashes with two layers of mascara and fill in your brows with eye brow tint. For the rest of your face, give your cheeks some colour, add a touch of gloss to your lips (you don’t want too much colour to detract from your eyes), and….

You’re now ready to hit the town!

Following on from the Two Colour EyeShadow Creations #1 and #2 blogs, EyeSpice has come up with some more Two Colour Creations, which means you can create both day, and evening looks using just 2 eye shadow colours. Of course, we do assume you have a few standard products that you can use in every look such as your trusty mascara.

This blog showcases some two colour examples specifically using Facefront Paint Me Perfect Eye Pigments.  Check out our other blogs specifically for Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics and Heavenly Naturals Cosmetics. OR, you can mix and match between brands for even more options. Enjoy!

The instructions for two colour creations in four easy steps:
Step One: As always, apply your eyeshadow primer first. We use FaceFront Survival Paint.

Step Two: Apply your chosen lid colour across the entire lid.

Step Three: Apply your crease colour to the outer corner of the lid, and blend it up into the crease. Also sweep this colour across the outer lash line of the lower lid using a thin tipped brush such as a Sigma SS219 or SS266.

Step Four (important): Blend the two colours on the upper lid with a blending brush such as a Sigma SS275. Blend the outer edges into your skin to create perfect diffusion.

Top the look off with some optional extras (that you should have in your makeup kit already)! We recommed:
- A line of Coastal Scents Gel Liner across the upper lash line.
- A smudge of Heavenly Naturals Chubby Cream Eyeshadow in White to the inner corner of the eye

We know it’s not always optimal to purchase 4 different eye shadows, a gel liner, a white cream shadow for your inner corner, plus your favourite mascara, and even some glitter eye liner to top off the look you are trying to create.
