Here is my first makeup tutorial of the year. So for Christmas my amazing partner got me the Mac x9 Burgundy Palette and I have not put it down. I love the colours in it and feel it may still be perfect for this time of year.
But lets be real you can wear what you damn well want whenever you want :p
So first you are going to want to prime your eyes. I am using the Urban Decay Eden Primer Potion and applying this to the lid and then with a brush blend this up out into the brow. If you don't have a primer you can use concealer.
As that was a liquid you then want to apply a powder. This is going to help set it and stop creasing. I just go in with either a translucent or a skin toned shadow.
Now going in with the palette I am first taking the brown shade which is on the top row in the middle. I am then using a large fluffy brush and softly blending this into the crease.
Then taking a pencil brush and the chocolate brown shade I am first going to sketch out where I would like my crease to go. As I have hooded eyes I apply this just above my natural crease. So relaxing my eyes and then go slightly above. I then go in with a larger brush and apply this in the 'crease'
Then taking the golden shimmer shade I apply this to the inner corner of my eye into the centre
Taking the plum shimmer shade I apply this to the centre and into the outer corner.
And then finally for this palette apply the dark plum shade to the outer corner of the eye. You can then go over these steps until you are happy with the look.

Then using my Sleek highlighter eye solstice palette I apply the pink and golden shade to the inner corner of my eye and brow bone.
I then go back in with the chocolate brown shade and pencil brush and apply this to the lower lash line.
I am then going in with my eyeliner and just applying a wing to my eye. This can be as big or as small as you like.
Finally you want to give your lashes and curl and then apply your mascara and false lashes to finish of the look.
Id love to know what you think of this look. Would you wear this or do you have the palette and what are your thoughts?
