Cranberry Smokey Eye: Revealed 2 Week

Hello Beauties!
For today's Revealed 2 look, I have a cranberry smokey eye for you all.
This is such a beautiful look that can be transitioned from day to night. As it is now, I think it is completely daytime appropriate; of course you could switch out the lip for a lighter color if you think it's a bit much.

To make it more dramatic for a nighttime look, switch out the nude liner in the waterline for a brown or a black and smoke out the lower lash line. You could even add a burgundy lip and winged liner!
Coming up is a list of products used and also a steps for the eye look...
On the eyes:
On the cheeks:
Milani Baked Powder Blush in Rose D'Oro 
On the lips:
Italia Lip Liner in Dusty Rose

















Now here is the step by step breakdown on the eye look:


  1. After priming my eyelids, I used the mauve shade with the red heart all over my crease as a transition color. To do this, I used a nice fluffy brush and made sure it was not only concentrated in the crease but a bit above my brow bone for that transition.
  2. Next I applied the Maybelline Color Tattoo in Creamy Beige on my lid as a base for the next shade.
  3. I then took the pinky shade with the pink heart and applied that on my lid right over the Color Tattoo.
  4. To deepen the lid, I took a smaller shader brush and the cranberry shade with the green heart. I packed that color close to the lashline. As I had less product on the brush, I start pressing the brush upwards with a light pressure to help blend that darker color up while keeping the intensity and depth closer to the lashline. 
  5. I then took my fluffy brush and a bit of the transition shade and just went over the crease to make sure everything was blended. 
  6. I added Ardell Wispies lashes. 
  7. Next, I took my  Rimmel Scandal Eyes Waterproof Eyeliner in Nude and added that to my waterline. 
  8. I took the transition shade (with the red heart) and added that lightly to my lowerlashline. 
  9. I added that white shade with the two hearts in my inner corners.
  10. Finally, I added mascara!
