Tutorial: One-Off in the Club Look

 EDIT: I am no longer making posts in this domain. Please follow me over to www.walkinmyeyeshadow.com to keep following my makeup journey

This is a look that I had been wanting to do a tutorial on for a while. It is a recreation of a FOTD look that I did on October 15th, 2009 (to view the original look, click here). I recently bought "One-Off" eye shadow from the Love That Look Collection (July 2009) and I thought it was such a pretty colour. The Love That Look Collection brought back the Starflash finish eye shadows and some of the limited edition shades from the Starflash Collection (July 2008) and after trying this formula, I am definately not against getting more. One Off reminds of 6th Sin, a cream eye shadow that MAC came out with in the Metal X Collection (November 2007).

The Metal X eye shadow weren't really something to scream about in my opinion when they came out. They had some gorgeous colours in the collection but because they were cream, they had a tendency to crease really badly, even with a base under them (well, they did for me anyway).

I decide to pair this with Club eye shadow, a gorgeous brown with a green duochrome which tied in with the green on the lid realy nicely. I don't often wear this colour, but each time I break it out it just makes me happy. Its not a very unique colour, I think most makeup companies will have a colour that looks like this so ifyou don't have it, you could probably find a good substitute.


To recreate this look, you will need (all MAC unless stated):
- Urban Decay Primer Potion
- One Off eye shadow (from the Love That Look Collection)
- Club eye shadow
- Carbon eye shadow
- Fresh Approach eye shadow (from the "Photo Realism" quad in the Makeup Art Collection - Aug 2009)
- Vanilla eye shadow
- Loreal liquid liner in "Carbon Black"
- Ebony eyeliner
