Earth Looks Small from Down Here palette
So far I have found the Dream Weavers collection to be colorful, spirited and fun. Each palette in the collection has unique colors to offer. I chose to do a tutorial using my favorite palette from the collection. Earth Looks Small from Down Here has three eye-catching colors that compliment just about anyone. The deep golden color is a greenish-gold shimmer. The blue shade is a rich blue that leans more towards indigo. The green color is a shimmery teal. All colors combined work well together and create a look that favors a peacock feather. Obviously this look is not office friendly but it would look great worn during a girls only night on the town!
~~~~~~~~~~~~ How to get this look! ~~~~~~~~~~~~
I began the look by applying foundation and concealer. I wanted this tutorial to use as many drugstore products as possible so I chose Rimmel's Lasting Finish foundation in Soft Beige and Milani's HD Advanced Concealer in 01. Next, I applied the dark blue shade from the palette using a shader brush (MAC 239) while keeping the color only on the eyelid. I then took a fluffy brush (MAC 222 or 217) and blended the dark blue upward towards the crease; you must be careful not to extend the color too high. I repeated this process 3-4 times to achieve the concentrated deep blue color. Next I took a clean fluffy brush and lightly blended the green shade into my crease and above it; moving the color towards the browbone. My eye sockets are quite small so in order for crease shades to show up properly, I have to blend them higher than most people. If your eye sockets are larger, don't blend the green color too far above your crease.
After blending the green shade and blue shades together in the crease, I took my Urban Decay 24/7 eyeliner in Binge and applied a thick line in the upper lashes. I ensured that the liner blended into the shadow that was already on my lid, while taking care to make sure the lash line was well defined. After lining the upper lashes, I then lined the lower lashes using a pencil brush (MAC 219) using the blue shade from the palette. I finished the look by choosing Ardell 301 false lashes and Prestige's My Blackest Lashes mascara.
If you don't have this palette remember any navy, purple, blue-green or teal shades can be used. If you don't have a shimmery gold color, a champagne like Stila's "Kitten" or a shimmery white could work as well.
