Easy Cut Crease- Blue & Lime Green

Some of us are happy and content with creating and wearing simple, conventional makeup looks while others can pull off the most dramatic looks which one would only reserve for the catwalk with absolute ease and comfort. The confidence that one needs when wearing these eccentric looks is definitely admirable and worthy of mention.  Makeup these days have certainly broken the traditional barriers and artistic creativity seems to be the order of the day. 

While some have a natural flair and talent for creativity, others like me, take my cue from those that don't mind breaking a few conventional boundaries....most of the times anyway...! One such look being the dramatic, cut crease look. I've always admired it in magazines and on models but never really tried to recreate it until I was stuck for an idea for a makeup tutorial. I think it turned out pretty well....and I hope that you think so too.

So let's get started......... Products used......

Basic necessary products

1. Always remember to prime your lids with an eyeshadow primer and apply a base shade over that to make the colors of your eyeshadow pop.
2. Now, with any dark blue eyeliner pencil, line the crease line of your eyes creating an elongated 'S', taking care to flick out the outer end. Take a small flat angled brush and brush out the drawn line upwards towards the eyebrow.
3. Take a black eyeliner pencil and repeat what you've just done with the blue pencil.
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
4. To further  intensify the color, take a black eyeshadow using a pencil brush and blend out any hard lines. 
5. Take a blue pigment eyeshadow and blend carefully over the black.
6. Fill in the lower part of the lid with the lime green pigment taking care not to apply any above the crease created with the eyeliner pencil.
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
7. I then further defined the cut crease using a liquid liner and lined the eyes as well and flicked the end downward...funnily enough, the 2 lines drawn resemble a fish without its eyes and fins lol.
8. Highlight the brow bone with a white eyeshadow and apply the same shadow in between the 2 
9. lines at the outer corner of the eye.
10. Add your mascara, shape and define your eyebrows and you are almost done.
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
11. You could leave it like this or for extra drama, you could spice it up with rhinestones, glitter or any other accessories that you may have.

Unfortunately, as I had dispensed the pigments into little carry along bottles, I don't recall the names of the pigment. However, you can use any pigment similar in color or substitute it for any color of your choice.
