For a while now I've been using Coastal Scents Synthetic Brushes and I LOVE them! So I'll mention which brushes I used through out the tutorial.

 Start by applying your favourite eye primer. I used Coastal Scents Shadow Worx Eye Primer. Then apply a very sticky base (Sobe's Stick It!, Fyrinnae's Pixie Epoxy or Darling Girls Cosmetics Glitter Glue all work great).
 
 Apply Drama Queen Topaz to the outer lash line with CS's Classic Shadow Angle Synthetic Brush, by patting and sweeping outward/upward towards the end of your eyebrow.

 Apply Ambre to the outer lid and sweep it outward and into the crease with CS's Classic Shadow Angle Synthetic Brush.

 Apply Gleam to the lid with CS's Classic Synthetic Blender by patting and blending outward.

 Apply Dandelion to the inner V with CS's Classic Detail Pointed Synthetic Brush by patting and sweeping outward.

 Apply Drama Queen Topaz to the outer half of the lower lash line with CS's Classic Shadow Angle Synthetic Brush.

 Apply Ambre to the lower lash line CS's Classic Shadow Angle Synthetic Brush.

 Using CS's Classic Shadow Large Synthetic brush, apply a skin tone shadow or use a powder foundation to blend and soften any harsh edges.

Apply NYX Candy Glitter liner in gold to the lower lash line. Then take CS's Classic Synthetic Blender and pat TKB's Gold Sparks onto the upper lid.

 Apply a black liquid liner to the upper lash line, then wing outward.

Apply Red Cherry lashes #43 and black mascara to the lower lash line to complete the look.

For the rest of what is on my face:
Eyebrows: Ardell - Mink Brown (applied with CS's Classic Liner Medium Synthetic Brush)

Lips: Sobe Botanicals - Pink Cupcakes with gold glitter lipgloss on top

Face: 
Skin MD Shielding lotion 
Sobe Botanicals Mineral Powder Foundation - Light Warm (applied with CS's small classic synthetic buffer brush)
Sobe Tinted Illusionist Powder (applied with CS's small classic synthetic buffer brush) 
NYX blush - Taupe (applied just below the cheek bones to contour using CS's Classic Blush Small Angle Synthetic Brush)
NYX Blush - Terra Cotta (applied to cheek bones and blending back toward the hair line with CS's Classic Blush Large Angle Synthetic Brush)
e.l.f. Stupdi blush - Gotta Glow (applied just above the cheek bones to highlight using CS's Classic Blush Small Angle Synthetic Brush)

  4. I actually wanted to ask...do you put on your foundation/concealer/face makeup on until after you put on your eyemakup or eye makeup art? Curious...what is the proper way so that the eye makeup doesnt smudge, flake on the face...like mine does. =(
