Since Adriana's is all about the sultry smoky eye, I wanted to give her a makeover that was based off the simple yet sexy look of the 1950s and 60s pin-up girl.

Since Adriana's is all about the sultry smoky eye, I wanted to give her a makeover that was based off the simple yet sexy look of the 1950s and 60s pin-up girl.

Instructions

  1. Small 105701 2f2014 12 15 132402 1

    Apply a skin-toned eye shadow base.

  2. Small 105701 2f2014 12 15 132617 2

    Start by brushing a matte light-pink over your whole lid, like Limit from Urban Decay's Naked 3 palette, with an eyeshadow brush.

  3. Small 105701 2f2014 12 15 132625 3

    Next use a fluffy blending brush to apply a matte medium-pink color, like Nooner from the Naked 3 palette, slightly above your crease and blend up toward your brow bone.

  4. Small 105701 2f2014 12 15 133116 4

    Using a smudge brush place a dark plum color, like Blackheart from the Naked 3 palette, slightly above your crease from the inner edge to the outer edge of your crease.

  5. Small 105701 2f2014 12 15 133430 5

    Using a small-dense blending brush use a plumy-gray color, like Factory in the Naked 3 palette, to blend the darkest color seamless into the first color placed into the crease.

  6. Small 105701 2f2014 12 15 133557 6

    Take a large pencil brush to place a matte creamy-white, like Strange from the Naked 3 palette, as below your eyebrow as a brow bone highlight.

  7. Small 105701 2f2014 12 15 133628 7

    Next apply your concealer and foundation. Since I am using a mineral foundation for this look, I apply and set my concealer with a pressed powder on my under-eye circles and blemishes first. Then, I apply the foundation all over my face with a kabuki brush.

    Apply a blue-based pink color on the apples of your cheek with a fluffy blush brush.

    Use a brow powder that matches your brow color to fill in and define your eye brows.

  12. Small 105701 2f2014 12 15 135355 12

    Use a your favorite black liquid or gel eyeliner to apply winged eyeliner.
