Products used:

Face: Benefit Porefessional primer
Benefit Hello Flawless face powder
NYX HD concealer
NYX banana setting powder
NYX Contour Stick (I'm not entirely sure why it looks kinda blotchy and red on my cheek, doesn't look like that in person!!)
Too Faced Chocolate Soleil Bronzer
NYX Illuminator in Ritualistic
Benefit Watts up

Eyes: Benefit Roller Lash
Kat Von D Chrysalis Palette (used glassing in the crease and melancholia as a lid color.)
Naked basics (added a dark brown to the crease)
Maybelline eyeliner pencil

Brows:
ABH Dipbrow Pomade, applied w a small angled brush
ABH clear brow gel to set

Overall, I'm not super happy with the way this look turned out. Does anyone have any suggestions? It was hard to get a good lighted picture so of course it does look a bit different in person. I also haven't picked a lip yet because I'm not sure what shirt I'm wearing. I'd love your feedback!

Hey! I love the eyeshadow colors. An idea if you want a different end look would be instead of putting black eyeliner all along the bottom waterline, I would put it about one third of the way underneath the waterline from the outer corner to the inert corner and smudge it out. Then put white or nude eyeliner on the waterline! It will really make your eyes pop!

I agree with Anna (: and maybe even a winged eyeliner would make it pop a bit more and you're so pretty😍😍 even w/o makeup.

Very pretty! I'd keep the black waterline on the very outer corners since you dig it...and then smudge it out just a tad...and use white as you move inward. Then if you want more black, on your lower lashline...you can add a bit of black shadow...and soften it out. I do it all the time.
