I need to run to the mall today and was super busy around the house this morning. I've been reorganizing the house and doing some much needed spring cleaning. So by the time I got on the treadmill and showered it didn't leave much time for makeup before my son woke up. I am not one of those people who can go out without makeup. I need AT LEAST a BB cream and blush. 
I found time to post this because my son is still sleeping! I was rushing all morning just to sit and watch last nights episode of Nashville. I can't complain, it's nice to have Mommy time! 
Anyways, back to the makeup look!  So, this is my go-to eye look when I want something quick and simple. The best part is, it looks like you spent more time then you actually did on it.

Products I used:
Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette (Foxy, Tease, Blackout and Bootycall)
Urban Decay Primer Potion in Eden
Flat shadow brush (I used ELF's)
Big fluffy blending brush (I used a Sonia Kashuk brush from a set)
Small angled brush (I used ELF's)

You can do the look with any products and brushes you already own. These are just what works best for me. I really love the look of an all matte eye. I also use the matte side of the Wet&Wild Vanity palette to do this same look and it looks just as beautiful!

What I do:
1. Apply primer all over the eyelid.
2. Use the flat eye shadow brush to put Foxy all over the lid and into the crease.
3. Use the big fluffy brush with Tease on it and work into the crease keeping most of the color on the outer corner of the eye.
4. Then I use the same fluffy brush and mix Foxy and Tease together and blend out the crease.
5. Use the same flat shadow brush and Bootycall and put this on the inner corner (tear duct) of the eye and the brow bone. 
5. Use the small angled brush and wet it. I use MAC's Fix+ but water also works! Then dip it into Blackout and line your eyes! I always wing out my liner, but it's up to you!

I love this way of applying liner. I think it's great if you don't have a steady hand for liquid liner or you are a perfectionist like me, and it seems that both eyes always look different! if you make a mistake with the black eye shadow you can just blend it out!

Other products used in this look:
Rimmel Fix and Perfect Pro
Revlon Nearly Naked Foundation in Vanilla
MAC Prolongwear concealer in NW20

I hope you liked this look and give it a try! What's your go-to eye look?
