Tutorial Tuesday: 3 Ways to Use Gel Eyeliner

Welcome to the second Tutorial Tuesday! I’ve been itching to do this Tutorial Tuesday ever since I bought the new Illamasqua Gel Eyeliner from their Paranormal collection. You guys probably know by now I love me some eyeliner, so I thought I’d share some tips on how to use gel eyeliner to accentuate your eyes in different ways.

I used the Sigma E10 Small Eyeliner Brush and Illamasqua Gel Eyeliner in Infinity, but you can substitute these for other similar products depending on your budget. If you find using a fine liner brush difficult, using an angle brush is great to start off with too.

Illamasqua Rubber Bright Nail Varnish in Prosperity

It’s day 5 of Illamasqua Week, which means there’s only two days left! Today is another nail varnish post. This time we’ve got the lovely Prosperity – which reminds me of Dairy Milk wrappers – that has a matte rubber finish.

This colour is probably the easiest to apply from the Rubber Brights shades I received, you get an even finish after 2 coats and a 3rd finishes it off nicely. Keep an eye out for some nail art featuring this shade later!
