We’ve previously talked about how to line the membrane of your eye. But Most women also like to add a little bit of eyeliner on upper eyelid–on the area we call the upper lashbed. We have 8 different basic waterproof eyeliner colors (Bardot-black, Bluebonnet-periwinkle, Bombshell- soft taupe, Delilah-olive, Lido-dark blue/green, Minx- chocolate brown, Siren- soft green, and Voodoo-raisin) plus 2 other waterproof eyeliner colors (Lorelei-gold and Dorado-bronze) that are great for blending the others.

Watch this video by Facade owner, Corinne Williams, for easy tips to apply your eyeliner flawlessly every time.

To get the look in the video, try Facade waterproof eyeliner pencils in Delilah followed by Lorelei.

You’ve heard it before–we all have… “eyes are the window to the soul”. Lots of girls love drawing focus to their eyes–and when makeup is done properly it draws attention to YOUR EYES and not your EYE MAKEUP!

It’s the difference between “Your eye makeup is so pretty” and “YOU look so pretty!”

So here is a quick trick that gives you extra oomph and definition… take a WATERPROOF eyeliner pencil like BARDOT or LIDO and line the UPPER MEMBRANE of the eye. This makes your lashes look denser/fuller, and makes the whites of your eye look whiter. Don’t believe me? Stand back from your computer screen and take a look for yourself—it doesn’t look like a harsh line—it just gives the eye a little more presence!

The pencils go on creamy at first, and take about 60 seconds to set. When you blink–some of the color may transfer or “click” down onto the lower membrane– if you DON’T like that look, use some gentle eye makeup remover and a q-tip to take it out!

What adds EVEN MORE definition, though, is putting some color on the LOWER MEMBRANE! You can try BARDOT, LIDO, SIREN, or LORELEI! Lorelei gives a barely-there look that just covers the natural pink-y color of the membrane which makes you look fresh–the other colors lend a little more contrast and POP! Refer to picture at left.

If you’re afraid of looking like you forgot you weren’t in middle school anymore and this look just feels too severe, try smudging a little SIREN or LORELEI or BLUEBONNET in your LOWER LASH-BED (indicated in picture at left) then use the smudge tip on the other side of the pencil to blur together. This softens everything but still keeps contrast!

Enjoy your gorgeously defined eyes!!!

Dianna Agron’s makeup look was STUNNING on the red carpet at the Emmy Awards!

TO GET DIANA’S LOOK:

For eyes:

1.) Using FACADE WATERPROOF EYELINER in LIDO line the upper membrane of the eye (the portion of skin just UNDER the lashes!) AND the lower membrane of the eye.

3.) With FACADE #29 Wash brush, sweep FACADE EYESHADOW in TULLE over the entire eyelid.

4.) Using a damp sable bristle brush like FACADE’S #19 Wet/Dry Shadow, apply FACADE MIRAMAR EYESHADOW, to the lower half of your eyelid.

5.) Using FACADE #31 Tate Contour brush, apply FACADE KEY LARGO to the outer corners. You can also slightly extend the color up and into the contour, if desired.

6.) Using Facade #5 perfect liner brush, apply FACADE WATERPROOF EYELINER in BARDOT very thinly to the upper lash line. Switching back to the eyeliner in LIDO, wrap it around the outer corner of the eye just slightly–use the smudge tip on the other side to fade the corners just slightly up and out.

For MEGA lashes curl first and then try a coat of REVITALASH PERFECT PRIMER, topped with REVITALASH MASCARA in RAVEN.

For cheeks: Try a somewhat subtle color like FACADE BLUSH in PARFAIT and FLORIBUNDA. swirl together and concentrate mainly on the apples of the cheeks.

For the lip: a tone similar to your own lip will be perfect!

Line your lips with FACADE VANITY LIPLINER first –it’s a fleshy/nude tone so you’ll NEVER get caught with VLL (Visible lip line!), and top with your choice of light to medium toned lipstick or gloss. FACADE’S LIP GLOSS in ARABELLA would be a great choice!

go forth and know you look divine!
