Maybelline Sultry Rainbow Tutorial

Todays' tutorial is a recreation of this look from the display ad for Maybelline's ExpertWear eyeshadows, which I saw when I was at CVS yesterday. I was looking for the picture on the internet so I could reference it on here, and I found it in the eyeshadow trios section, even though on the ad I saw, there's a picture of a quad underneath it... so that's kinda weird. And it totally colors look different too. On the website, they look more muted, but on the display, they were definitely bolder and deeper. But anyhow, I thought it was super pretty, and there was nothing else that I really wanted to do today, so this is what happened. I didn't realize until I was in the middle of the tutorial eye that it totally looked like a smokey rainbow look... kind of... if you squint... I'm not really sure if other people would think so, but it's blaringly obvious to me, now that I've noticed it. Mmmhm girl. Rainbows. All day, errday!

My lips always look way more pink in pictures... It's kinda weird.
And I couldn't get a sharp picture of my face for the life of me for some reason...
And I look really dark for some reason........ cameras hate me...

Possible soon-tutorial material... 

It looks a lot different on the model than me, of course, 'cause her eye shape is different, and I think the effect that I wanted to get didn't translate quite as nicely as I would have liked. Because if I tried to give somebody some sexy eyes, *shudder* no one would even be able to see the smokey lash line unless I was looking down at them......... ; ) heeeeeey~

And it would probably look a lot more sultry if it was mostly, or all, matte, because... what isn't sultry about mattes? 

Err, yeah, anyway...

I'll find my rainbow soon...
