Rusted Smokey Eye for Valentine's Day

This second Valentine's inspired look uses only colors from the EDUN for Sephora Makeup Palette #1 (unfortunately I think it's been discontinued). All of these shadows have shimmer in them so please excuse the super shimmery pictures. If you don't have this palette - don't worry - all you need is a gold shadow with reflects in it, a shimmery pink, a rusty red and a chestnut brown shadow. Follow the steps below to create a romantic smoked out eye that's sure to catch someone's eye!

As always, prime your eye for staying power. Lay down the first color, a glittering gold, on the inner half of the upper lid. Make sure to tap as you don't want sparklies all over your face!

Next, with a fluffy brush, pick up the pink shade (right side, middle) and lightly pat this onto the lid. Start at the outer corner and work in so that it fades into the gold. Then blend the color up onto the brow bone.

Now, layer on small amounts of the rusty red shadow, applying it on the outer half of the lid. Imagine a diamond shape that's laying on its side following the lash line. Blend the colors lightly into one another using the fluffy brush. Use what's left on the pencil brush and apply it to the outer half of the lower lash line.

With the chestnut brown (lower right) and a pencil brush, pat the shadow along the lash line first. Then bring the color up into the outer most corner of the socket. Pull the color lightly across the lid from the outside toward the middle. Blend with the fluffy brush.

Next, with a black eye pencil, push the color in between the upper and lower lashes. This line should be undefined and smokey. Line your waterline with the black pencil. Curl lashes and apply a few coats of black mascara.

I used the blush (a baby pink with gold shimmer) from the palette. Lined my lips with a nude-brown liner, then applied a nude pink lip color topped with a golden gloss.
