How to create rainy season color play makeup
1. Eyebrows
On your days off, you'll want to keep your eyebrows in a casual style. First, fill in the gaps between the lashes with the powder-type "Brow: Palette Walnut Brown Acorn." Next, apply "Eyebrow Manicure Tony Gold" to the entire brow, following the natural direction of the lashes. If the color isn't covering your brows enough, apply it in the opposite direction as well. We recommend choosing a color that is one tone lighter than your natural brows.
2. Eyeshadow
Apply the reddish-beige "Pressed Eyeshadow ME270" in a slightly wider stroke on the lower lash line. This is effective for adding sexiness and a healthy glow. Apply the coral-leaning beige "Pressed Eyeshadow P121" to the entire eye socket. It also acts as a control color to reduce dullness around the eyes.
3. Eyeliner
The most important aspect of this makeup look is the eyeliner. Using the vivid, summery color of the Drawing Pencil P Baby Blue 61, draw a line along the outline of your eye, from the outer edge of your pupil to the outer corner when looking straight ahead. A smaller area of the accent color will create a better balance.
4. Mascara
After curling your lashes with an eyelash curler, apply Perfect Natural Mascara Black to both your upper and lower lashes. You can also use brown if you prefer.
5. Lips
For the lips, apply the coral pink liquid lipstick "Tint in Gelato CR02" with a brush to the center and spread it out. For a more casual look, you can also use your fingers. The finish is matte, so if you want to add shine, apply a layer of serum.
6. Blush
For the blush, use the same lipstick as you did. Using a liquid or cream type will help it blend in with your skin. Place the lipstick on a sponge and spread it around the plump areas of your cheeks in a rounded, inverted triangle shape.
7. Eyeshadow (adjust)
Apply peach-colored "Glow On P530" between the highlighter and blush on your lower eyelid, blending it evenly.
Your rainy season makeup look is complete!
The combination of coral pink and light blue is incredibly refreshing, making going out on rainy days more fun. Even color lining that may seem difficult at first glance should be within your reach with this.
