Silver, Gold and Bronze Eye Makeup Tutorial

This eye look was created using shadows from Morgana Cryptoria's Mystic Alchemy Collection. I must say that I am in love with this lip and eye combo! So pretty!

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. 
Any part where you see me using the same brush more than once, I always wipe any excess shadow off of the brush before applying a new shadow. I use cloth diapers as my brush cleaner/wiper, rather than being wasteful and using tissue paper.  I always completely clean my brushes between each makeup look that I do (using Cinema Secrets brush cleaner), to keep them clean and to avoid color transfer.
 
 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 Morgana Cryptoria - Cyprium, to the outer lid, V and crease, with CS's Classic Synthetic Blender Brush by lightly patting and blending outward.

 Apply Morgana Cryptoria - Caduceus, to the middle lid and crease, with CS's Classic Synthetic Blender Brush by lightly patting and blending outward.

 Apply Morgana Cryptoria - Amalgama, to the inner V with CS's Classic Detail Pointed Synthetic Brush by patting and sweeping outward.

 Apply Morgana Cryptoria - Caduceus, to the middle lower lash line, with CS's Classic Shadow Angle Synthetic Brush.

 Apply Morgana Cryptoria - Cyprium, to the outer lower lash line, with 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 a black liquid liner. I used Kryolan Aqua Color in black.

 Apply faux lashes and black mascara to complete the look.

For the rest of what is on my face:

Eyebrows: e.l.f. Baked Eyeshadow - Burnt Plum (applied with CS's Classic Liner Medium Synthetic Brush)

Lips: Morgana Cryptoria - Flirtatious Flapper Lipstick + Witches' Brew Lipgloss

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)
Sobe Botanicals Blush - Orgasmic (applied to cheek bones and blending back toward the hair line with CS's Classic Blush Large Angle Synthetic Brush)
