Quick and Easy Summer Eyes: How to Get the Look with Too Faced
by Jill Russell
Published May 27, 2013
Like all Too Faced palettes, the new-for-2013 Summer Eyes Shadow Collection comes with a handy step-by-step guide to show you how to create different looks from the products within. We decided to take things to the next level, creating a full face look using some of our favorite Too Faced goodies (all available in our shop!).
These nine summery eye shadows—blues, corals, and tawny tans inspired by the sun, sea, and surf—have great pigmentation, so you can control the color intensity. Apply one layer for a light wash, or build up the pigment for a more high-watt finish. Here’s how to get a sultry and fun look, perfect for a weekend getaway or balmy night out. Bonus: The Summer Eyes palette is 100% cruelty-free!
How To
Step 1: Using a brush, prime lids with Too Faced Shadow Insurance Eye Shadow Primer in Candlelight.
Step 2: Apply Coral Crush in the crease.
Step 3: Brush Seashell along browbone, right under the brow, blending down a bit into the Coral Crush.
Step 4: For lids, use a combination of two shades: Sunbeam for the inner corner and Plumeria for the outer corner.
Step 5: Follow with Mermaid under the eyes, along the lower lid.
Step 6: Line the lower waterline with Too Faced Perfect Eyes Waterproof Eyeliner in Perfect Black.
Step 7: Using a flat brush, line the upper lids with Chocolate Sun.
Step 8: Finish the lashes with a few coats of Too Faced Lashgasm Mascara.
Step 9: On cheekbones, brush on a bit of Too Faced Soleil Bronzer in Chocolate.
Step 10: On lips, try Too Faced Sweet Sun Shines Lip Gloss in Papaya Slushie.
