Hello people! Hello Spring!

 This pencil technique makeup might be considered hard to achieve, but it's like drawing on canvas, in this case being your skin :). Actually this technique allows you to create fabulous designs on your face: lines, shapes and shadows.

First I draw the shapes and shadows I wanted with a black pencil, then I blended out with a brush where I wanted a smooth transition between colors or where I wanted to add dimension, filled the shapes with eye shadow and then applied rhinestones and false lashes.

 This creative makeup look is inspired by Valentine's Day and I hope you like it.

All you need it's practice!

Have a lovely week loves, don't forget to comment! If you have questions to ask, please let me know.

Love, xoxo

I wanted a more exotic look and I got my hair wet... :))
