The past few days I've been staying with my Mema and Dede in Smallwood, New York. I bet you're asking yourself, "where the hell is Smallwood?" I could tell you it's in the Catskills or near Monticello, but I'm sure many of you would still have no clue where this place is. However, there is one landmark many of you, if not all, will identify with: WOODSTOCK. Yes, you read correctly, my grandparents live just down the street from the infamous Woodstock in Bethel Woods off 17b in New York. I went with my cousin and Mema to the museum and was inspired by this shirt to create this makeup look. I hope you enjoy! ☮&♥

[how to get this look]

step one:
Prime eyes from lash line to brow and under eyes.
step two:
Taking an ample amount of matte, true purple
with a small shadow brush, pat color onto outer
and halfway on crease in shape of choice.
Then with a smudger brush, place purple
onto outer half of lower lash line.
step three:
With an overall shadow brush, place pink onto lid.
Concentrate this color onto rounded, ball part of eye.
Leave inner corner or eye duct, as clear as possible.
step four:
Use this time to clean up the colors. This is not a
true "cut crease" look because the pink is laid slightly
on top of the purple, creating a softer line than
a cut crease where the two colors are placed directly
next to one another. However, it is important
there be a distinction between the purple and pink
as supposed to completely blending the colors.
step five:
Place a line of NYX jumbo eye pencil in Milk
to the inner corner of eye and below the
highest point beneath brow. Soften with finger.
step six:
With a fluffy blending brush, apply a shimmery
orange to the inner corner. Concentrate the color
to the inner corner, but drag the remains into the
inner half of crease area.
step seven:
Using the same brush, blend edges to soften the look.
step eight:
Blend out jumbo eye pencil beneath brow with
a fluffy brush and shadow similar to skin tone.
step nine:
With a large angled brush, apply any shade of
black shadow along the upper lash line.
step ten:
Tight line upper lash line with a black pencil.
step eleven:
Mascara and done!
