Today I'm going to show you how to do Gyaru make-up (a kind of japanese style make-up that makes your eyes look uber huge!). Above is the make-up I used which I will list at the end of this entry.
1. First I put in my Geo Angel Blue circle lenses is, this is a pretty essential element for Gyaru make-up/ Gyaru lifestyle anyway, but if you don't have any, don't worry! The make-up makes eyes look huge anyway (but you should buy some anyway because they are epic). Then put on any face make-up that you usually use. For me, that's foundation then concealer then powder. I use a buffer brush to apply my foundation, fingers for concealer and a large powder brush for powder. If you really want a lot of powder on your face, get a make-up pad and cover your face by pressing the pad with the powder onto your face, then with the brush take off any excess powder and you get a soft looking face! After this I drew my eyebrows in with a dark brown eyebrow pencil.
2. Add dark brown eyeliner around you're eye, making go thick to thin from outside to the inside of your eye. Then add the eyeshadow starting with the lightest colour first spreading it across your whole eyelid. Then put the second lightest shade on half your eyelid, a quarter of the second darkest shade and the corner of your eye in the darkest shade. Then underneath your eye, only use the second darkest and darkest shades, run the second darkest shade underneath your eyelashes then the darkest shade. Use the picture as a guide.
3. Then add your eyeliner. This is pretty difficult to explain, so I have made a diagram. You basically outline the whole of your eye really finely, then make line thicker towards the outside of your eye. Do this on the underneath of your eye as well. Then on the inside of your eye, draw a small flick.
4. Touch up on any eyeshadow that has been lost in the process and touch up any eyeliner with a cotton bud
Ｏ(≧∇≦)Ｏ. Once you are satisfied with those, time to add mascara! You can curl your lashes first with an eyelash curler, this will make your eyelashes look bigger and therefore make your eyes look bigger! Then, to make them look even bigger, take a white eyeliner and contour your waterline, this creates the illusion that the white of your eye is larger.
Hooray! Now, I've only done one eye to show you the immense difference it makes to your natural eyes. Then I did the other eye, added some blusher and lip tint as well as dotted some glittery eyeliner on the outside of my eye, and at the end on the inner eyeliner flick.
EPIC IMMENSE STUPENDOUS EYES!
