hey guys so for today's 12 days of tutorials I created this purpley pink Halo eye and I
use the Huda Beauty Mercury retrograde palette I always get so many requests to use this palette
whenever I do this series on my channel and I don't blame you guys this palette is gorgeous I
do have a couple other videos with this palette on my channel so if you want to check those out
I'll link them all down below for you so if you want to see how I got this eye look go ahead
and keep on watching all right let's dig into the Mercury retrograde palette I'm going to start with
the shade momentum on a sigma e35 and I'm gonna blend this shade in my crease foreign [Music]
super light so it won't really show up but it's like I don't know I I
can see it on my eyelid you might not be able to on camera but this
shade's just gonna help everything blend smoother later on [Music]
now I'm gonna pick up the shade crash on the same
brush and I'm going to blend the shade in my crease as well
foreign [Music]
[Music]
these matte shades are blending so beautifully and they look so smooth
on the eye now I'm going to switch to a sigma e25 in the shade off balance and
I'm going to start by placing the shade on the outer part of my lid
[Music]
and then also placing it in the inner part of my lid
and then connecting the shades in the crease [Music]
so again starting the shade on the outer part of my lid just doing
a little circular motions here and then going on the inner part of my lid [Music]
and then connecting those in the center of my crease
now I'm going to pick up Galaxy on my finger and that's going to go in the center of my lid
so pretty
[Music]
then I'm gonna go back to my e25 and just softly
blend around that Shimmer just kind of diffusing out the edges foreign
this eyeshadow is looking pretty soft right now and I think I want
to intensify it just a little bit I'm going to take a little bit of Vortex on a sigma
E30 and I'm going to use that to deepen up the outer and inner Corner even more
[Music]
and I'm keeping the shade pretty low on my lid
like I'm not bringing it into my crease at all all right so that's what it looks like with the vortex
shade added so before and after you could skip this step if you want to but I like how this looks
foreign [Music]
[Music]
so when you're deepening up a Halo like this it's best to start with just a little bit of
eyeshadow at a time and slowly build it up because it can be really easy just to like throw on more
Darkness but just slowly build it up with a small brush like this all right I'm happy with how this
looks I'm gonna go do my face makeup off camera and then we'll finish up the eyes together all
right my face makeup is done and before we did the lower lash line I kind of want to kind of
wing out this dark shape a little bit it's looking a little too round on my face and I feel like it's
making my eyes look smaller so I want to just extend that a little bit so I'm going to take a
sigma e42 with more vortex and just kind of work on extending this into a slightly winged shape
foreign
and again I'm only picking up a little bit of eye shadow at a time and I'm just kind
of doing like a little flicking motion right out here and then I'm gonna pick
up more of that off balance shade and just kind of do the same thing
and you might not have to do this step I'm just doing it because on myself my
eyes were looking smaller and maybe this type of Halo looks really good
on you so you can be the judge of that whether or not you want to flick this
out all right so that's what it looks like kind of winged out and here was the before
see how on me like this just looks better compared to that all right what I had to fix that on this
eye as well I'm feeling much better about that now for the lower lash line I'm going to stick with
the same brush and I have more off balance on it and I'm going to blend that along my entire lower
lash line and there might still be a little bit of Vortex left on this brush which is totally fine
[Music]
now I'm gonna go back to that momentum shade and just kind of use that to soften the lower
lash line so I'm blending this right below that off balance shade foreign
[Music]
Cosmic on a sigma E21 and that's going to go in my inner corner
[Music] I'm gonna go pop on some mascara and lashes and then I'll show you the full face
all right I popped on my mascara and lashes and for my lashes I'm wearing the bright lashes and
the style Angela I wanted kind of a bolder lash today and I just love this style I also
ran a little bit more of Vortex just right in my lower lash line to deepen that up a little
bit because I like a deeper lower lash line so here is the final close-up of the eyes all done
all right and here is what the full face looks like I can't tell you what's on my lips because
I literally layered up like every lip product I own because I couldn't find something that
worked because I'm like really pale right now so not important but for my bronzer I use the
well it's new to me the house Labs power sculpt velvet bronzer in light two I bought this during
the Sephora holiday savings event and I really have been liking it especially when I'm pale like
today I feel like it's a good color it's not too warm because I feel like a lot of bronzers will
pull really warm on me when I'm pale and for my blush I'm wearing the Charlotte Tilbury cheek to
why can't I say this cheek to chic too chic I think so in the shade Sex on Fire I haven't won
this blush in a while but I really like how it looks today anyways I love how these eyes
turned out today I'm super happy that I ended up winging out the outer Corners just a little bit
I feel like it looks more flattering on my face and my eye shape but I love these colors that I
use today that kind of soft purpley pink with that Galaxy shade in the center I think it's so pretty
this might just be my favorite look I've done with this palette let me know your thoughts so I hope
