00:00 Hey guys, Alex here from How to Heroes.
00:07 Today I'm going to show you how to do a simple smokey eye makeup look using one color palette.
00:12 So let's get started.
00:16 So the first thing I'm going to do is apply Oh Roma Water Toner from Lush all over my
00:21 face and because I have really dry skin, this just makes it nice and smooth.
00:28 Next I'm going to apply CoverGirl's Outlast Stay Fabulous 3-in-1 Foundation.
00:34 I'm applying it on my foundation brush, all around my face and on my neck.
00:50 After that I'm going to use Rimmel's Match Perfection 2-in-1 Concealer and Highlighter.
01:01 I'm going to gently use my beauty blender to blend in the concealer.
01:15 To set in my foundation from before, I'm going to use Essence Sun Club Matte Powder and I'm
01:21 using a wide powder brush and just applying it all over my face.
01:28 On to the eyes, I'm using Quo's Back to Basics Matte Color Palette.
01:43 So we're going to be using the three lightest shades as well as the brown and the black.
02:01 Now when applying the black eyeshadow, make sure you use an angled brush.
02:22 This way you can really form the C that's going to be highlighted on the outside of
02:28 your eyes and you can get right into the crease.
02:43 To touch up my eyebrows, I actually use CoverGirl's Brown Eyeshadow with a harsh angled brush.
02:52 So I just brush them through and lightly apply a pencil liner just to get the shape and then
02:59 I fill in all my empty spots with the eyeshadow.
03:06 For my mascara, I'm going to use Essence's I Heart Extreme Crazy Volume and their Get
03:10 Big Lashes.
03:22 Not only are these products super affordable, but they really do curl your lashes and they'll
03:27 last you forever.
03:38 To finish up my eyes, I'm just going to apply a little bit of black eyeliner just to make
03:42 the look really pop.
03:47 For my blush, I'm using a three color palette of Rust, Bronze, and Rose.
03:52 I'm just going to apply it on my blush brush, making sure I highlight my cheekbones and
03:57 bring it all the way up to my temple.
04:06 Finally to complete this look, I'm going to line my lips with MAC's Rebel Liner.
04:22 And to just make it a little bit more subtle because we do have dark eyes, I'm going to
04:27 add their Brave lipstick on top.
04:33 So there we have the finished makeup look and I hope you guys enjoyed it.
