Now let's get started in creating this super easy look. I'm actually using a new palette for this tutorial today, we're using Up Cosmetics Palette Quad No. 2 and I love this palette because it has everything that I love. I highlight our mid-tone contour and a fade shade. Now if you're not sure what a fade shade is, I'll get to that in a second but your highlighter should be at least one shade lighter than your skin tone. This one happens to have shimmer, it doesn't necessarily have to but this one does. It also has a matte mid-tone and you always want a nice matte mid-tone that should be at least one shade darker than your skin tone and then it has a matte contour and this should be at least one shade darker than your mid-tone, so at least two shades darker than your skin tone. And then the fade shade which is actually really hard to come across but I love this palette included it, the fade shade is a brighter tone which is used to kind of fade and blend out your other eyeshadows while also adding a slightly different tone which then in turn adds a little bit more depth to the look but I'll show you guys how to use it as we go. Now to start with as always we're going to apply an eyeshadow primer all over the lid, this is going to give us a blank canvas to work on while also giving our eyeshadow something to hold on to so that they last longer and we're going to start off with that mid-tone and we're going to use a blending brush to apply this so this should be a small easy to control blending brush nothing too fluffy just something that you can kind of softly apply with. Now my base is still kind of sticky so if you are a real beginner I would suggest applying a little bit of powder, if not you can go straight in with the eyeshadow however you do want to make sure you're blending quite quickly so that doesn't hold on to any areas. If it does tend to go a little bit patchy on you apply a little bit of powder first but I'm going to start by applying this all over the lid and I'm keeping my hand quite low because I want to softly blend this upwards so the lower your hand is the higher the blend is going to be so I'm keeping my hand quite low brushing this over and back across the lid and then it's going to softly touch that crease area and that's kind of what I want to do I want to softly blend this upwards so your crease area is basically where your eyelid creases into your eye shape some people have it more prominent than others but it's kind of always there and you can also fake one if you don't have one so you want to blend this softly upwards working up towards the brow area but it should very softly fade out into nothing as it reaches the brows that's the key to a midtown and you should end up with something that looks like this next I'm going to take my contour shade so what I'm going to do is I'm going to stamp this on the outer edge to begin with and then I'm going to bring my hand higher because the higher your hand is the lower the blend is going to be and we don't want to bring this contour up past our midtone so to prevent that we're going to keep our hand nice and high and this is going to push the eyes to those downwards as you're applying rather than having that blend upwards past the midtone which we never want to do with our contour midtone is always higher I'm then going to take the fade shade and this time I'm using a clean blending brush so the whole time we've been using the e26 we're now switching to the e25 so this is a clean blending brush we're just going to tap a little bit of that eyeshadow onto the brush and we're going to use this to very softly blend and fade out everything that we've already applied mostly I like to hit this across the crease area but you can kind of apply this everywhere provided you very slowly build this up next I'm going to take a super flat brush and a little bit of concealer make sure it's really a flat brush and we're going to apply this over the lid yes over the lid and over the eyeshadow that we already applied on that inner corner now you do want to make sure you've got a blend underneath there so don't just avoid this area because we're going to apply concealer anyway so you might as well go ahead and really apply the eyeshadow in that area don't worry about skipping it because the concealer will cover it up anyway now the point of the concealer is that it's going to create a lighter base for our highlighter to sit on top of so I'm going to take a smaller brush and I'm going to use this to apply a little bit of that highlight over the concealed area and this is going to brighten it it's going to hold on to it's going to shine more and you can also apply this underneath the brows but we will end up with a little bit of a marking between the highlight and the contour and mid-tone so what we're going to do is we're going to take our fade shade and we're going to apply this in the center and this is going to help blend the two of them together a little bit goes a long way and I'm using just a flat brush to do this and then I'm going to go in with a liner brush I'm just going to apply a little bit of black liner across the lash line lots of mascara and then some lashes now I did make a little bit of an oopsie and I left this in on purpose to show you guys but as I was applying my lashes I ended up kind of pushing down my lash line a little bit so I ended up with a kind of a dip in my liner this is just something to look out for don't worry about kind of pushing your lash line back up again a little trick is just to apply a little bit more of that liner in that area to camouflage that little dip but it happens all the time it's just something to be watchful of I really hope you guys enjoy this one I'm absolutely loving this palette if you have any other suggestions of palettes you think that I should try out definitely let me know be kind to yourself as always especially this time of year and I will see you in the next one bye for now
