Sometimes, I feel like sharing my makeup.


red eyeshadow as eyeliner

Red eyeshadow! I wanted to match my makeup to my outfit ~ a black t-shirt with a vibrant orange tiger print and rich tan fall coat with red and black plaid. Red is a forever favorite to wear in igari style, but it's bordering on socially irresponsible to try to look ill during a pandemic. Maybe my red can come back with more conventional styles, though navy and bronze are far superior liner colors for brown eyes.


I applied a red metallic eyeshadow with an eyeliner brush along the outer third of the upper lashline and blended into the inner third. Up to my brow, I used a base shade to even out my tone. The outer third of the lower lash line was lined with deep burgundy and flicked out and up with my finger to form a subtle wing.


Photo is after 8 hours of wear. I think the pencil got a little messy, but the red could last forever.

Red eyeshadow! I wanted to match my makeup to my outfit ~ a black t-shirt with a vibrant orange tiger print and rich tan fall coat with red and black plaid. Red is a forever favorite to wear in igari style, but I dropped it because it's plain rude to intentionally look ill and unapproachable during a pandemic. Maybe red can come back with more conventional styles, though navy and bronze are the supreme liner colors for dark brown eyes.
