hey guys so for today's video i created this neutral eyeshadow look cut crease with a
pop of pastel i've been doing so many colorful looks recently and a lot of you have requested
this kind of look just neutral with a pop of color so that's exactly what we're doing today
i am doing a voiceover for this video because the original audio was so messed up so here we
are i also wanted to add that this type of cut crease i did for this look with like kind of the
swoopy shape is a little challenging and it might be hard for beginners but i'm going to do my best
to walk you guys through it when we get to that step this eyeshadow look was inspired by a look
i created back in 2016. i'll pop a picture up on the screen here when i knew i wanted to do
a pop of pastel this is the look i thought about and i thought it was so pretty so i
recreated that today and then for my neutral eyeshadows today i'm using the colourpop bare
necessities palette and then for the pop of pastel i'm using natasha nona pastel palette
so i'm starting with the shade hustler on a sigma e25 and i'm blending that all throughout my crease
and i am whisping out the eyeshadow on the outer edge of my crease meaning that i'm only applying
just a little bit of product out there because i really want the eye shadow to just kind of flow
into my skin and then on the same brush i picked up tabloid
using the very tip of the e25 and i used this shade to deepen up the
crease even more while still following that kind of swoopy cut crease shape
you don't have to be super precise right now because we are going to clean this
up later with concealer but you just want that general kind of swoop in the crease
and then i went back to that first shade hustler and i blended that
all over the crease again to make sure everything is nice and smooth
then i switched to a sigma e27 and i picked up more tabloid again just to
deepen up the crease even more
this e27 is slightly smaller than the e25 so it allows me to be a little bit more precise
and then i wanted my cut crease just to be a little bit deeper so i picked up
one more darker shade i picked up active full on the same e27
and again i'm using the very tip of the brush and i use this to deepen up the crease even more
now once all that eyeshadow is laid down it is time to cut the crease
so i took a liquid concealer i used the anastasia one and i picked that up using a sigma lo5 brush
this is my favorite brush for cut creases because it's nice and small and precise so i started by
placing the concealer in the center of my lid and then i looked up and around to it transfer
the concealer kind of into my crease so i use that as a guide to fill in the whole cut crease
if you have slightly hooded eyes like me it kind of helps to relax your eyes so you can
really see what the shape is going to look like when you're just relaxed and talking and chilling
and again you don't want this cut crease to be like straight
throughout your eye you want it to have that little swoop at the end
so then after i got that general shape down i used my finger to tap out the concealer
and just pick up any extra product that's laying on my lid then i took the shade buff
from the palette on that same lo5 and i used that to set the concealer in place
i recommend using this small brush to get around the top of the cut crease to set the
concealer but once you get to the lid you can switch to a larger brush i used a sigma e54
to set the rest of my lid and i wanted a mostly matte eyeshadow look today so i did
use a matte for this but you could totally use like a satin or shimmer if you'd like
now to make the cut crease pop just a little bit more i'm going to go back
to one of the medium tone shades we used so i'm going to pick up the shade tabloid
again on that l05 just on the very very tip of the brush and i used a super light
hand in very small motions and i place this shade right above the concealer cut crease
this step isn't necessary but i like it because it makes the cut crease pop
a little bit more now for the lower lash line i picked up more tabloid on a sigma e21
and i placed that along my entire lower lash line
and then i went back to that lightest shade hustler on a sigma e27 and i use
that to soften the lower lash line just to blend out that tabloid shade
and then i lined my waterline with my favorite gel color eyeliner from house
labs and then i took more active fool on that sigma e21 to blend out the black
all right now the eyeshadow is mostly done and it's time for the pop of pastel so again i use
the natasha nona pastel palette because it's just a current favorite and i literally cannot stop
using it and you can really do any kind of pastel shade you like for this look i just decided to use
a minty color because i like how mint kind of pairs with the warm browns so first i used my
sigma switch to clean off the lo5 since i've been using that brush a lot during this look and i
picked up the shade brisk from the pastel palette and i just loaded up that shade in my inner corner
and then since i've only used matte shades for this look i wanted to add just a little
bit of shimmer in the inner corner so i mixed a little bit of illusion and mint
frost from the palette and i added those on top of my inner corner to make a pretty soft
shimmery mint shade all right and that is it for the eyeshadow i went ahead and popped on
my mascara and lashes for my lashes i used all natural from my brand the bright lashes
and this is the final look i thought it turned out super pretty and it was really
fun to do this kind of cut crease because i don't do this style very often so i hope you
