How to Wear Gold Eyeliner

June 20th, 2017 at 2:00am

Summer is finally here and that means it’s all about having that sun-kissed, bronzed, and gold makeup look. I went bold and added a touch of gold eyeliner to add to this summer vibe makeup look. This makeup is perfect for any occasion, whether you want to dress it up for a night out or keep it cute and casual. It’s even perfect for a music festival. Follow the steps below if you want to know how to achieve this look.

Step 1: Primer is one of the most important steps if you want your makeup to last all day. I used the POREfessional Face Primer and applied it all over the face.

Step 2: During the summer, I like to use as little makeup as possible. I used the Maybelline New York Instant Age Rewind Concealer under my eyes, the bridge of the nose, forehead, and chin. Concealer will help cancel out any discoloration and redness.

Step 3: Set your concealer using your favorite loose powder. This will help your concealer not crease and make it last all day.

Step 4: Moving on to the eyes, I used the Hoola Matte Bronzer on the crease. Any brown shade will work. This will keep your eye shadow very neutral but also give it some definition.

Step 5: The most important step for this look is the eyeliner. I used the Tarteist Clay Paint Eye Liner and winged it out to create that cat eye effect. Then, using a light hand and short strokes, I applied the NYX Cosmetics Studio Liquid Liner in the color “Extreme Gold” right on top of the black one.

Step 5: Finish off your eyes using mascara to make your eyelashes longer and fuller.

Step 6: To bronze up the face I used the Hoola bronzer and Too Faced Chocolate Soleil Matte Bronzer and applied it on the forehead, the cheekbones, and the jawline. To add some glow and shimme,r I used one of the best highlighters, BECCA Shimmering Skin Perfector Poured, on the cheekbones, tip of the nose, and cupids bow.

Step 7: Moving on to lips, I applied the ColourPop Ultra Satin Lip in the shade “Point Zero.” It is a very subtle shade and perfect for the summer because it really completes the look.

Step 8: Don’t forget to set your makeup with setting spray so your makeup lasts.

This Fashionista decided to keep her outfit very simple and wore a basic striped T-shirt and paired it with some denim shorts which really complemented the makeup look. This look would even look great if you paired it with a nice dress for a night out. I love that the gold eyeliner and neutral eyeshadow really made her brown eyes pop.
