Get the new 2012 AQUA look for the summer.


“Pencils, pencils!” that's what all my clients are requesting. They are so easy to use and so effective, with creamy textures and above all, a unique shade range. To make life even easier for all busy women, this year I have created AQUA SHADOW, a jumbo pencil that is even creamier and easy to apply, with shimmering and matte shades for more sophisticated results. Makeup artists are also requesting them, especially those who only have a few moments to create dynamic, colorful makeup at fashion shows. They are perfect for backstage and for the everyday lives of modern and dynamic women.”

I LOVE AQUA SHADOW by MAKE UP FOREVER..

6 easy steps to Aqua Shadow's summer look.
by MAKE UP FOREVER!



Step 1
Apply Aqua Shadow #28 (Beige) directly onto the upper eyelid starting from the lash line and working up to the brow bone to create a highlighting effect.


Step 2
Apply Aqua Shadow #20 (Taupe) to the crease of the eyelid without defining the outer corner (open banana) and then blend it toward the top using the 14S Brush with forward and backward movements from the outer corner to the inner corner of the eye. Blend quickly before the texture dries.


Step 3
Blend it (step 2) toward the top using the 14S Brush with forward and backward movements from the outer corner to the inner corner of the eye. Blend quickly before the texture dries.


Step 4
Draw along the upper lash line with Aqua Shadow #6 (Navy Blue), making sure that the lead is well sharpened. Then blend in the color using the Brush 2S starting from the outer corner working toward the inner corner to achieve a smoky finish. Do not forget to apply color between the lashes for maximum intensity.

Step 5
Draw along the lower lash line and color in the rim for a more intense result.


Step 6
Finish by applying Aqua Smoky Lash mascara. For an intense result, repeat the application.
