Newest Look using Laura Geller baked liner (as eyeshadow)


I was talking to one of subscribers/friends about a wedding she's attending as a bride's maid. Everyone in the party is a MA and are doing smoky eyes. The colors are black and red but she is not sure how to apply her e/s without outstaging the bride.

This is my try at something she could do. You can see the video on youtube now.
