The makeover I'd like to give Lily Allen still features glitter, but there's more of it! I'd give her a dramatic glittery smokey eye. Yep. I totally would. For the makeover I'd like to give Lily Allen, I kept the steps for my base makeup the same as the classic look.

Instructions

    So onto the eyes, guys. I started by using a grey/black eyeshadow palette by NYC. I used grey over the lid, highlight in the tear duct, silver in the inner corner, taupe in the crease, and black extended from the outer v down under the lower lashline.

    Then, as with the classic look, I used cosmetic sealant and a small brush to apply the cosmetic glitter. I used a lilac one I got cheaply off eBay, and simply patted over the lid.

    Once dry, I followed with winged black liner and a coat of mascara. Voila! A glittery smokey eye.

    To keep the focus on the eyes, I kept the lips really minimal. I patted on some lip balm (wonderbalm by Dainty Doll), and follow with a touch of natural lip liner and a bit of highlighter. And there you have it. Thank me later, Lilz.
