transform your powder


Sara
Happy Monday Campers,

So, I am happy to report, although irrelevant to the topic of today.  The weather here has truly turned into AMAZING Spring weather!  I am SO happy.  Things are popping up in my garden all over the place, Yay! 

Let's talk about Eye liners.  There are so many forms of eye liners on the market, there is the traditional pencil, there are pens, Markers, liquid eyeliners with a thin brush, tattoos, and I am sure at least a few more I have not mentioned. 



My favorite Eye liner is achieved though Eye shadow and a Push brush, or flat head brush.  My favorite is Trish Mcevoy Brush 11 Precise Eye Lining.  I find using a brush with powder has given me the freedom to experiment with my look. 







Best things about using a brush for your Eye liner:
1. You do not need to be a professional to master using this tool!
2.You are able to easily get the brush right up to the lash line, to create a thin discrete line.  This will give the illusion of fuller lashes.
3. You can create a thicker look by taking the same tool and lightly tapping it on a larger area.
4. You can choose any color eye shadow you would like to create your eye liner look.
5. You can still create a liquid liner look, that is more bold and has longer staying power with this brush by blending your powder with Paula Dorf Transformer.

To use the Transformer:
1.  Place a few drops either on the lid of your eye shadow package or in the crook of your thumb.      2.  Take the brush and dab it into your powder color of choice.
3.  Take the brush with the powder on it and put it into a little bit of the transformer enough to get it wet.
4. Then mix it together slightly  
5. Apply a thin line to the top of your eye lid, close to the lash line, if you want a thicker line, then just apply another line on top of that one...


Check out Our YouTube Channel where you can see me use the Transformer, blend it with a shadow and how easy it is to apply to you eye lid, which will air this Friday.
