Hi I'm Daniela Rowson. I'm a makeup artist and I'm going to show you how to do pink makeup for oval eyes. The products that we will need are a blending brush, a highlighting brush, a placement brush and pink eye shadow. So we're going to start by applying this matte pink color on the crease and then we're going to start going back and forth and then doing little circles to blend it. For oval eyes you want to stay mainly on the outer part of the eye, otherwise your eyes will look more round if you go too far in. So you want to keep that shape, that almond shape and just make sure that you blend really well. So we're going to get right in the corner again and then back and forth to place the color on there and then do the little circles to blend out. And you can add more if you feel like it's not even to the other eye or if you want it more dramatic you can always add more too. So now we're going to do the highlighting color and we're going to use this soft vanilla color. We're going to get a tiny bit on this blending brush and we're going to get right below the brow and start blending in. And we're going to get right below the brow and you want to mainly put it in the arch of the brow and then softly blend it and then we're doing the same thing on the other side. So our next step we'll be doing the color on the lid and we're doing this soft pink color. I'm just going to use the flat brush and we're going to apply it right on the lid and you want to start just packing on the color so just with a patting motion. We can get a little more and then with our blending brush we're just going to get over here in the crease and just blend so that you don't have a harsh line. So when applying pink eye shadow on the crease, make sure that you apply it on the outer part of the crease, that way you maintain that oval shape. My name is Daniela Rowson. Thanks for watching.
