Teal/Peacock glitter Liner Makeup Look

I wore this look last night to a club. I didn't have time to do a full blown look, so I opted for bright glitter liner and bold lips. I didn't wear blush so I look much paler than usual. Even though I normally don't wear concealer, I should have put some on my lower lash line since I wasn't wearing eyeshadow.

 
 
 


Eyes (all applied in this order):
Coastal Scents Shadow worx eye primer (applied to upper lid, blending in gently with ring finger)
Sobe Botanicals foundation in Light Neutral (applied all around the eye with a fluffy blending brush)
Urban Decay 24/7 liner - Flipside (applied to upper lash line/outer lower lash line and winged outward)
MAC Glitter Eye Liner - Peacocky (applied on top of Flipside)

Eyebrows: Sobe Botanicals Fill Me In Brow Powder - Brunette (applied with MAC 266)

Face: Skin MD Shielding lotion

Nails/NOTD: Avon Matte - Black as Night

I've had 2 Avon matte polishes for a few months and haven't tried them until now. I've always thought matte polishes looked so cool, so I'm not sure why it's taken me so long to actually wear what I have.
This formula was a bit of a pain to work with, but it dried really fast.

I achieved this look with:
1 coat of Avon's NAIL EXPERTS Smooth Beginnings Base Coat 
2 coats of Avon matte polish - Black as Night

Of course I didn't use a top coat...that would make it shiny again. :-P

Since I was busy, I didn't get to take pictures of my makeup until the end of the night when everyone had left, which was almost 1 in the morning. I was so tired!
