Quick and Cute Summer Eye Makeup!

The Finished Look
Now that everyone's out of school and the sun is shining, it's time to try out some fun bold colors to brighten up your summer! This is a colorful and quick look that is perfect for going to the beach (as long as you're not swimming, of course), summer parties, a picnics, and everyday summer activities. It takes about four minutes total, and all you need are three eyeliners in your favorite color combination. This post will show you how to create the look above in five simple steps.

Here are the products I used for this tutorial:

Avon's Eye Brightening Pencil Crayon in "Plumberry"


Avon's Super Shock Eyeliner in "Burnished Copper"
Maybelline Eyeliner Brush

Avon's Gilmmersticks Eyeliner in "Blue Flare G201"

My Favorite Mascara: CoverGirl's Professional Remarkable Washable Waterproof Mascara in  "Very Black"

Now, the five steps that will help you achieve the look:


1.
Start off with clean makeup-free eyes. (Add  concealer one shade lighter than your skin tone to cover dark circles and brighten up the eye area)

2.
Take the eye brightening pencil and line the inner third of your upper lash line and a third of the bottom lash line.

3.
Then take the gold eyeliner and line the rest of your top lash line and only the middle of your bottom lash line.


4.
Then take the blue glitterstick and line the outermost third of your bottom lash line and take it up a little to form a slight cat eye.
Blend the edges of all three colors together to create a pretty gradient look.


5.
Finally, add your favorite mascara!


And that's it.

In natural light, this color combination looks surprisingly neutral, but still wakes up your face with the vibrant colors and sparkle. This combination is my personal favorite, but you can experiment with any colors. I hope you use this bold look to brighten up your everyday summer activities.
