The Eye Suite

Hi all,

I have been busy filming, editing and uploading a new suite of videos all about eyes today. These are short videos that break down the four stages of eye makeup application in an easy, worksafe way. The first two videos are up, and this is the final look:
Ugh, ghastly photo. But work safe and easy!















BOT Eye Suite #1: Preparation - concealing eye discolouration, eyelid base and sticky primer.

  Products:

  • NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer in "Vanilla" - available at all NARS counters and in Sephora
  • NYX Eyeshadow Base in "White" - available at Target and Rexall (Canada), most US drugstores
  • Fyrinnae "Pixie Epoxy" - available online(the store is closed at the moment, but keep checking) - This product isn't strictly necessary for this look, but you might want to try it for very glittery/sparkly shadows in order to keep them in place.

  • BOT Eye Suite #2: Eyeshadow Application
     - the three-colour method for easy, eye-lifting looks
      Products:
  • TheBalm "Balmsai" Palette - available at select Rexall (Canada), Ulta (US) and online
  • Shiro Cosmetics Eyeshadow in "What Does This Lever Do?" - available online.


  • Brushes
    I really like Rexall's home brand "Kit" brushes. They are so soft and easy to use, and they blend well. Bonus, they are also very well-priced at ~$5-8CAD per brush, and are available at most Rexall stores in Canada. Of course, both Sigma and Real Techniques brushes are available for Canadians through FTBBeauty, and for Americans at Ulta stores (and Sephora in the US? Let me know!

    I'm working on editing and processing the third (eyeliner and mascara) and fourth (eyebrows) videos to complete the suite. As always, let me know what you think!

    Til next time,
    Amanda
