♕ The Mermaid Series ♕ Mermaid Soul ♕


Another look just in time for #MermaidMonday! Like the previous ones, this features some Makeup Geek Cosmetics eyeshadow too. I used teal and green shades this time, so this makeup is more mermaid-y than ever! And it's also very simple, because I used just three main shadows (plus one as eyeliner). Sometimes less is definitely more ;D


I named it "Mermaid Soul" because I think it represents quite well a mermaid: it's bright and shimmering, yet deep and intense. Like a mermaid ;D
Anyway, when I created it I had no well-defined inspiration - I just wanted to do a mermaid look, but I had nothing clear in my mind.

I chose three main shade for this makeup: Shark Bait, Dragonfly and Shore Thing - which, to me, are wonderful used together, really a great colour combination.
I also decided to use Pegasus (my favourite above all others, so far) as eyeliner, to add sparkles to an otherwise all-matte look. 


After applying the eyeprimer, I applied Shark Bait eyeshadow by Makeup Geek Cosmetics all over the lids (both upper and lower). On the crease I applied Dragonfly, blending it outwards creating a V shape. Then, I blended it using Shore Thing as transition shade; I used it to blend Shark bait on the lower lids too. On the brow bone I used Antique White eyeshadow by NABLA Cosmetics, while on the inner corner I applied Sensuelle (by NABLA as well), the only shimmer eyeshadow I used (apart from the eyeliner of course).


Moving to the eyeliner, as I said previously I used Pegasus wet as such. It's STUNNING. Easy to make and apply. Just pick some powder from the pan (I usually scratch the product off with a brush) and pour some drops of Fix + on it. Then mix and voilà, here's your custom eyeliner!

I created a thick line with Pegasus, because I wanted it to stand out as much as possible. After applying it on the upper lashline, I decided to do the same on the lower lashline too. I'm glad I did so because this made the look more unique and sparkly *_*

On the waterline I applied a teal eyepencil, just for a change. Then I completed the look with false lashes and mascara.
