Neutral eye makeup tutorial featuring chocolate bon bons palette!

TOO FACED CHOCOLATE BON BONS PALETTE NEUTRAL EYE TUTORIAL!


First you want to do all your prepping. You don't want to just wake up and start putting your makeup on because that's going to breed bacteria in your makeup and on your brushes and sponges. Your makeup also lasts longer and looks better if you use a clean and moisturized but oil free "canvas." So wash your face and moisturize or whatever your skin care regimen is. I use the proactive system usually but lately I've had to use st ives exfoliating scrub and proactives advanced oil control lotion to help control my oil output since that all but wipes out my makeup by mid day. Also don't do your face makeup until after your eyes are done because every eyeshadow has some fall out and even If you can't see it it makes a dark shadow under and on the side of your eyes. We will clean up and I can and will prove this to you later on.
Also, unless otherwise specified use your crease brush in a back and forth windshield wiping motion just at the top of and above your natural crease. This widens your eyes, especially if you have hooded eyes. If you for some reason want your eyes to look smaller just keep it in your natural crease. THEN when you're in your outer third and outer V you will use your crease brush or fluffy blending brush or whatever brush you prefer and apply eyeshadow in small, fluffy, circular motions. Next, when you're applying to your lid (the inner two thirds of your eye lid), your inner v and your inner eye area next to your nose you will use a soft patting motion. In your arch, waterline, anywhere you put eyeliner, you will use a drawing motion. You will literally be drawing straight lines. You can use that same liner brush or thin shadow brush to blend the arch back and forth after that. In your under eyebrow area under your brow but right at the top of your crease color you will use a large fluffy brush and a soft and wide swiping outward motion. You will also always tap off excess shadow with each dip into your makeup because the idea is to slowly build and blend colors not accidentally add too much and try to figure out a way to fix it. It just looks nicer this way. Don't forget unless otherwise specified you always blend your shadows after application. If your asked to blend from the outer v into the crease you will start with small circular motions then move into windshield wiper motion. You always blend in the manner you applied.

Next add concealer on your lids to right under your brows. Then add a colorless eye or face primer to your brows and do your brows as usual and then set them with a setting powder and line all around the edges of the brow, but only on your skin with concealer and blend in carefully. All of these things help keep brows in place all day. Then add eye primer to your lids.

Then grab your crease brush and apply Almond Truffle to your crease.
Now grab the color Mocha with your fluffy or crease brush and apply in complete crease.

Next you will use your shadow brush and apply Divinity over entire lid area then immediately after this you will add Cafe Au Lait directly over the top of where you put Divinity.






Now with fluffy or crease brush grab Bordeaux and put in outer V and into outer two thirds of the crease.

Now line your eyes with Dark Truffle in waterline on bottom and tightline on top. You can line your eyes and make your winged liner with this color as well but I prefer a darker color so I grabbed the black from my Urban Decay Naked Orginal Palette but you can use any black shadow. Then I lined the outer half of my wing with a liquid liner just to add a little more drama. 

I Then add Divinity from top of crease color to just under brows. Then highlight under brows and inner v and inner eye are with Satin Sheets.


I Then add two coats each of any two mascaras. It just gives me bigger brows than any one mascara.

Now it's time to clean up the mess. Grab a makeup wipe, q tip with lotion or do like I do and just grab a tissue or some toilet paper and put some lotion or baby oil on it and then wipe all around your eyes where there shouldn't be make up. Even if you don't see any. Then wipe the excess. See the eyeshadow on the paper? Told ya so bitches! Lol jk I mean seriously but you're not bitches ;p

Now add foundation and concealer over top where you need it. I use it on my acne and undereye area. Then I add a light contour only in my cheeks and on the sides of my nose then a little blush and a little highlighter on cheekbones, temples, middle of forehead, cupids bow above lips, mid chin and bridge of nose. I also like to add the highlighter to my inner eye area and arch of brow and top of breasts or decolletage. Whatever's showing on your chest depending on what your wearing, just to tie it all together. You don't want your face to be all shiny and your body be matte. That looks weird.
Then add some lipstick and your good for a Netflix and Chill (we all know that means booty call lol)!
