FOTD Frooti Friday; Smokey Naked2 makeup look

Friday 20 January 2012

I thought I'd start "FOTD Frooti Fridays" (or FFF for short) as I seem to post makeup looks on Fridays.. I can't guarantee every Friday, but I'll try my best when possible!
For those of you who wanted to see a look from the Naked2, I thought I'd do a fairly simple but classic look that a lot of people love. Personally, I'm not a fan of full on smokey looks on myself, but I do love how they look on other people with more fuller eyes/eyelids.
This look predominantly just uses one colour - blackout! But here's a list of the (all Urban) products used:

Products used:
> UD tinted moisturiser in Bodyguard
> UD concealer in NSA
> UDPP
> UD Naked2 palette - Foxy, Bootycall, Blackout
> UD 24/7 eye pencil in Perversion
> UD Cannonball mascara
> UD Brow Box in Brown Sugar & Blackout eyeshadow
> UD Baked Bronzer - Toasted
> UD Super Saturated Lip Color (SSLC) in Lovechild & F-Bomb

After applying tinted moisturiser all over the face and priming the eyes I started by lining the eyes with new UD eyepencil in Perversion around the eyes. I then gently patted Blackout with the included double ended brush in the palette, onto the eyelid. Unfortunately, I'd used the shadow brush already for a shimmery colour, so some of the shimmer had come off the brush when Blackout was applied! The effect was still nice, so I decided to leave it (rather than start again!)
Using the crease brush on the other end, I softly buffed on some more Blackout (but not too much as it needs to be "smoked" out.
Using Foxy on the brow bone, I blended it down using the crease brush again, adding more, as was needed. Unfortunately Foxy isn't as pigmented as I would have liked (like my La Femme white eyeshadow) but it did the job.
Using a liner brush, I added more Blackout to the bottom lashline, blending slightly to make the line softer.
I did use Perversion eye pencil for a topliner, but it's barely noticeable as they're both a very black black.
For the lashes I used the Cannonball mascara and wiggled back and forth to really give some depth amidst all the blackness!
Finally I concealed under the eye with NSA and filled in the brows with a little Blackout and the UD Brow Box.
For the rest of the face I used a bit of Toasted bronzer on the cheeks and the new SSLC in Lovechild on the lips:
I decided to contrast the dark matte black shadow with Bootycall (shimmery cork) for a slightly different look, to highlight the brows. So Bootycall was added on top of Foxy on the brow bone to look like this:
I also thought I'd try and make the look fully dramatic with red lips, using the SSLC in F-Bomb and the result was this!:
Which look do you prefer?? I hope you liked this look, it's quite dramatic so I wouldn't personally wear it.. even for occasions! But I thought I'd give it a go, do let me know your thoughts!
