I love the 1960s make up. Even though I personally think I don't suit it. This one is based on singer Nico who was featured on The Velvet Underground's self titled album.

Instructions

  1. Small 114318 2f2016 05 19 000652 fullscreen%2bcapture%2b18052016%2b235332.bmp

    Use white eyeliner and coat your waterline to make your eyes look bigger. I’m using Fascinating by MAC which has a good intensity.

  2. Small 114318 2f2016 05 19 000721 fullscreen%2bcapture%2b18052016%2b235838.bmp

    Apply a white/near white shade to your lid. I’m using one from Wet N Wild

  3. Small 114318 2f2016 05 19 000742 fullscreen%2bcapture%2b19052016%2b000009.bmp

    Take a grey shadow and put it into the contour of your eye socket. Tilting your head back helps to achieve this. I’m using SCENE by MAC

    Next take a brown eyeshadow and apply a shadow under your bottom lash line. Any brown will do I’m using CHOCOLATE CHIP by CLINIQUE.

  5. Small 114318 2f2016 05 19 001216 fullscreen%2bcapture%2b19052016%2b000845.bmp

    Apply some false lashes to the upper lashes. I’m using one the Girls Aloud ones – CHERYL

  6. Small 114318 2f2016 05 19 001316 fullscreen%2bcapture%2b19052016%2b000948.bmp

    Take a mascara wand and hold it vertically and get those little bottom lashes covered

  7. Small 114318 2f2016 05 19 001619 fullscreen%2bcapture%2b19052016%2b001206.bmp

    Apply a light coat of mascara to your real upper lashes (under the fake ones)

  8. Small 114318 2f2016 05 19 001632 fullscreen%2bcapture%2b19052016%2b001402.bmp

    I took a bit of concealer just to lighten my brows a little – you don’t have to do this

  9. Small 114318 2f2016 05 19 001813 fullscreen%2bcapture%2b19052016%2b001608.bmp

    Take a black liner of your choice (I used True Black by Clinique) and slowly build up a bold line to your upper lash line

  10. Small 114318 2f2016 05 19 001832 fullscreen%2bcapture%2b19052016%2b002646.bmp

    Finish with a touch of blush. I’m using a cream blush – Watercolour by DANIEL SANDLER
