Omg they are soo gorgeous!

First I'll show the products I'm using.

First I did my eyebrow and a applied a base all over. But in this case I applied the concealer in the green circle.

awesome!

I forgot to say but all my brushes are from Coastal Scents.

Ok, after I did the concealer all over I grabbed a small angled brush and went with a "not too dark" brown (from the 42 Double Stack Palette) and drew my new crease.
I kept my open for this step. I always keep them open when I'm going to draw the new crease because I get to see where the crease line is going and if its too high or too low.

Gorgeous! dumb question... is a cut crease always above the natural crease or does it just mean to "exaggerate" the look of a crease?

Nice!... I'm following this thread.

After that 👆
I get a small/medium shadow brush and grab the lighter brown/tan color.
I start patting the color first.
And I try to get as close as I can to base of the line.
After the patting is done I blend the color lightly.
I stop and open my eye. That helps me see where I'm heading with the blending.
Don't do too much or else you won't have a brow bone.

Next I grab my little sample quad from Coastal Scents (Sample Set 16) which has a gorgeous brown called 'Deep Roast'.

I use the same brush.
I grab a little bit of the Deep Roast, just on the tip of the brush.
I tap the excess color because this brown can get messy.
I start the patting routine again at the base of my crease line.
When I'm done doing that I start to blend very carefully.
I don't blend to high either because I still want to be able to see the other colors I've applied.
Again, I open my eye to see where my blending is in line.

After 👆
----I'm using the shadow brush----

I grab a very little amount of the black.
I still tap the brush.
Every time when I use black on my cut crease I'm very careful to follow the base of the original line I first drew.
The black will give it some depth and a smokey look to your cut crease.
After placing the black I blend.
I once again open my eye to make sure I'm not over blending.

This is very important.
Open your eyes every time you stop blending.
Blend - open - blend - open

After doing the black on the crease, my crease I basically done.

I use the white eyeshadow in the palette as a highlight color to my brow bone.
You decide how much white eyeshadow you want.
I prefer a noticeable amount. (Lol)
I just tap the white on the brow bone.
And bring it down just a bit.
You don't want a harsh line between the transition color of the cut crease and the white.

This is so helpful thanks for doing this Diggie :)

Once I'm done with that.
I clean the lid a bit.
I get rid of the fallout.
And apply a bit more concealer.
I set the concealer with a white highlight color that comes in the Blush/Contour Palette from Coastal Scents.

For this particular cut crease I did something new.
I don't know what it's called.
I blended the brown on both corners of my eye.
I like how it gives it depth when the eye is open.

Then I get a clean makeup remover wipe and clean under my eye. Simple stuff.
I apply a lil concealer from the concealer palette and set it with Revlon's Nearly Naked in Light Pale #020

I grab my NYX eyeliner in black.
I line just my water line with this.

With a very small and thin shadow brush I go to the green in the palette.
I apply that to my lash line and blend down.
I also set my eyeliner with this green.
Then with a mother shadow brush, another small one, I grab some black and place it I've the liner.
This gives it a smokey effect that I love!

**I personally like to wing the bottom color also**
I like the effect it gives to the final look

You don't have to do it if you don't want to.

I line my lash line with my and Chrisspy's favorite eyeliner.
NYC Liquid Liner. It dries matte.
Just be careful not to cry.

After applying the eyeliner I put lashes on.

After putting lashes on I'm basically done with the whole look really.

But knowing me, I'm never satisfied with anything, so I decided to add glitter liner from Italia to my inner corner as a highlight.

Hopefully this helped a lot of you girls.
I had already done one before this one bit wasn't as detailed.
Videos have been requested for this look as well as others, but my computer charger is broken me I haven't had the money to go buy one. I'm poor 😁lol.
But as soon as I get the charger I'm recording videos and uploading them to YouTube.

One last thing.
You don't have to necessarily use the same products as me. And definitely not the same colors.
You can do a pink and green for all I know, and still follow these steps.

Well, I'm done. Have fun
