The fall season calls for more subdued colors and less vibrant
make-up.This look features bronze coloring with brown undertones. You
can wear this eye during the day or evening with your hair styled up or
down. The eye has black mascara and liner to counter and complement the
brown shades on the eyelid. Any skin or eye color can wear the bronze
brown eye look. Any color of clothing can be worn with this make-up, but
neutral colors or black flatter this look best.
Instructions
Pat eye primer onto your eyelid with your fingers. Eye primer prevents eye make-up from creasing or fading on the eye during wear.
Use your finger to pat bronze cream eye shadow onto the eyelid with your fingers. Use a gentle motion that isn't too firm.
Apply metallic brown eye shadow onto the eyelid over the bronze cream shadow. Do this with a shadow brush for a smooth application.
Apply a metallic tan eye shadow to the inner 2/3 of the eyelid with a blending brush and blend the color into the crease. To blend, simply sweep the brush upward and outward along the crease of your eye toward your browbone.
Use a liner brush to apply the brown cream eye shadow to your lower lash line.
Apply black eye liner to the upper lash line.
Apply black mascara to the upper lashes only.
Pat bronzer onto your bare face with a bronzer brush to warm up your skin tone. Don't bother with foundation as this look highlights a natural face best.
Apply a petal pink blush with your bronzer brush. Apply blush just on the apples of the cheeks and use a light dusting of it to prevent a too obvious showing of color.
Finish this look with a nude lipstick.

how to do nail art designs for beginners at home
How to do nail art - Try a bright base nail color, followed by an edging strip across the tip. Stickers galore are on the market today. Whatever the season there will be something available to suit. So let loose and let your imagination run free
Bold colors are here to stay, so why not create your own designs and make each nail unique to you?Try a bright base nail color, followed by an edging strip across the tip. Stickers galore are on the market today. Whatever the season there will be something available to suit. So let loose and let your imagination run free.
What you will need:
1. Cotton pads – lint free is best
2. Nail polish remover (acetone free if you wear fake nails otherwise they will dissolve)
3. A selection of colors, e.g. electric, glitter, light and dark shades
4. Clear base coat
5. Quick drying top coat
6. Stickers and rhinestones
7. Tweezers
8. Kitchen towel
9. Q-tips
10. Thick hand towel
11. Table or large tray
Preparation:
1. You will need at least 1 ¼ hours free to avoid rushing your nail art.
2. Unscrew all nail polish bottles and acetone ready for ease of use.
3. Roll towel up to rest your hands on while painting.
4. Sit at a table if possible, if not then use a large tray on your lap so that everything is to hand.
5. Have a basic idea of what designs you are going to create. Why not go really wild and have a different design on each nail? Remember not to have too many similar colors together. For dramatic effect you would want a blue, a red, a green, a yellow, etc.
6. Where possible have at least one electric color on each hand. It is eye catching and will draw attention.
Method:
1. Apply the clear base coat and allow 5 minutes for drying. This is important because bright nail polishes will stain your nails.
2. Lightly apply the main color to your nails.
3. After 1 minute run your finger tips under the cold water faucet to assist with drying.
4. Wait 15 minutes and apply the quick dry top coat.
5. After an additional 30 – 45 minutes you can begin your design. It really is important to ensure the bottom coat is completely dry before building onto it.
6. Here are some thoughts for each individual nail:
- Electric yellow base coat with a diagonal stripe of electric green across the edge. Do not panic about smudging or over-painting when you do edging, this can be dealt with later.
- Using tweezers, place 3 rhinestones on the top corner in a curve to give a cute gem stone effect.
- A pretty flower sticker sitting at the base of the nail next to the cuticle.
- A baby pink base coat with a fuchsia glitter coat on top.
7. Wait another 5 minutes and run your nails under a cold water faucet again. Shake dry if possible.
8. Approximately 10 minutes later apply a final base coat.
9. Wait until all nails are 100% dry, and then where necessary, dip a Q-tip into the nail polish remover and gently rub around the edges to clean off any over-painting.
10. Your nails are now gorgeous and eye-catching. As you become more experienced you will be able to create some patterns which will be totally unique to you.
