When you think of metallic makeup you might not think it can ever be subtle. I beg to differ! Sparkly, glittery makeup doesn’t have to be over-the-top and I’m going to show you how with this makeup tutorial. For this chic, metallic look I’ll be using Dior products that you can find at Lord & Taylor. Let’s get started!
First, I use Dior Diorshow Mono Longwear Professional Mirror Shine Eyeshadow in Chimere. This will serve as an eyeshadow primer and will also add a bit of shimmer to the overall look. It’s a peachy, rose gold tone and I apply it all over my lid. You can use a small brush or your fingers for this step.
For this look I’m using the Dior Limited Edition Diorshow Fusion Mono Long Wear Professional Mirror Shine Eyeshadow in Versailles. This palette has all my favorite shadow colors, gorgeous golds, neutrals, and blush tones. I’m starting with the rose gold shade, packing it on my lid with a flat brush. The great thing about these metallic shadows is that they’re buildable. You’re totally in control of how glittery the overall look will be.
Next I use the brightest color under my brow. It’s a great highlight that’s not too frosted or dull. After that, I use a bit of the gold color in my tear ducts to brighten the look and open up my eyes. With a fluffy brush, I apply the brown shade into my crease and blend, blend, blend. With a flat brush, I apply a bit more of the brown shade to my lower waterline as well.
Now it’s time for liner. For this look I’m using Dior Waterproof Eyeliner in Trinidad Black. I start by drawing my wings on both eyes, make sure they match, then create a thin line along my lashes on the outer third of my eye only. I do the same on my lower lash line as well. After I’ve gotten my liner how I like, I use the tapered foam tip on the opposite edge of the liner to smudge and blend. For this look, I wanted it to look smokey and natural so the blending tool really came in handy.
Almost done! Next I curl my lashes and apply Dior Diorshow Maximizer Mascara Base. This helps my lashes look longer and thicker. It also helps my mascara work better and also conditions and cares for my lashes. After a few coats of Dior Lash Extension Effect Volume Mascara my subtle metallic eyeshadow look is complete.
