Bright Inner Corners at Chromat
You know that if M.A.C. is involved, the look is sure to be killer. M.A.C. Senior Artist, Fatima Thomas, created a look at Chromat that was simple, but included a pop of neon orange right in the inner corner just to keep things exciting.

Bright Inner Corners IRL
Since my skin is more on the light to fair side, I didn't feel comfortable popping a neon orange color on my inner corners and going on my merry way. To make this look fit me and my everyday needs better, I decided to tone down the orange inner corner with a bit of shimmering champagne on top. This way I still had the perfect sparkle on my inner corner to brighten up the eye area and the fresh color to keep my eyes the main attraction of my makeup look.

Rounded Wing Liner at Jason Wu
Makeup Artist, Yadim, used the Maybelline New York The City Mini Palette in Urban Jungle to create this rocker-chic look. He essentially created a winged liner without the crisp, sharpness of a typical wing by leaving the end rounded and a lot messier than your typical Instagram winged liner would be.

Rounded Wing Liner IRL
To create this winged liner look, I essentially did what Yadim did, but shortened the wing and blended out the black shadow more to make the color look less harsh. I used a small eyeshadow brush to create the circular edge of the "liner" then swapped that for my liner brush, dipped into a Kat Von D black shadow and stamped it above my lashes.

Dramatic Bottom Lashes at Christian Siriano
Would you believe me if I told you that the entire makeup look for this show was created with e.l.f. Cosmetics products? Polly Osmond (for e.l.f Cosmetics) created a simple look that showed seriously dramatic bottom lashes paired with clean, radiant skin. Thanks to the mascara layered onto the bottom eyelashes, this look clearly focused on all things eyes.
