To begin, go in with a shimmery turquoise like Makeup Geek’s Sea Mist and a the MUG?Eye Shader Brush and gently pat the color over the lower lid staying below the crease. Next, go in with a soft dome brush and a soft brown shade such as Mocha, and place on the outer part of the eye and sweep into the crease making sure to blend out any harsh lines leaving a soft wash of color on the lid. Run the same turquoise shade under the entire length of the eye and add a pop of Shimma Shimma to the inner corner. Line the upper and lower waterlines with a black gel liner like Immortal. Curl your lashes and add mascara, here Maybelline ROCKET was used. Then, add a great pair of lashes, here the artist used Ardell #318.
This remarkable look is nothing short of stunning. To begin this look, place a matte white like?White Lies?on the inner 1/3 of the eye. With the?MUG Eye Shader Brush?or any flat, stiff brush, place the color?Poolside?over the next 1/3 of the eye keeping the color below the crease. Wipe off your brush and go in with?Boo Berry?and repeat the same process. Finish up with the color?Nautica?and wing the color up slightly at the edge of the eye. With a small dome brush, go in with?Ocean Breeze?and blend into the crease of the eye.

For under the eye, go in with the gel liner in?Fame?and the?MUG Bent Liner Brush?and line under the eye where your lashes begin and wing the color out where the black ends making sure to leave a open space between the Immortal and the Fame.

Use Corrupt and a angled eyeliner brush to line the upper lash-line keeping the color close to the lashes. Curl your lashes and add a great mascara to finish the look.
This fun and colorful look is not for the faint of heart, but for our more adventurous Makeup Geek’s this is for you! The artist here used Manhattan Multi and Intense eyeshadows to get the look so we are going to offer some Makeup Geek alternative so you can have the same look. To begin, pat a small amount of Shimma Shimma on the inner corner and on the upper 1/3 of the eye. Bring the same shade under the inner 1/3 of the eye as well. With the MUG?Eye Shader Brush, go in with the color Cupcake and pat the color where the Shimma Shimma left off going 1/3 of the way making sure to blend the lines where the colors meet making sure to keep all the colors below the crease.
