... beauty: EOTD - red and gold smokey!

It's Chinese New Year!!!
Cue the gratuitous red and gold eye shot!









I'm afraid I couldn't resist! Not that I ever need much encouragement ;)
Here what I used:

1. Primer: Mally Beauty
2. MAC "Smoulder" pencil smudged along upper an lower lashes
3. Smoked out the black using Cranberry from MAC (this rhymes, it was not on purpose)
4. Blended out my socket with Glamorous from MUG
5. Highlighted under brow with Shimma Shimma from MUG
6. Added a little bit more intensity on the top lashes by blending in a little MAC Beauty Marked

I hope you like it - it made me feel festive!!
