Lets start with Makeup...
I think a smokey eye and dark lips would be AWESOME!!!! Lets pull some references from our FAVORITE pirate movies of ALL times...
as you can see... the smokey eye is DEFINITELY the VIBE of a pirate..
here are some steps to a "traditional" smokey eye, then we'll put a spin on it.
put a neutral shade MATTE under brow
a dark gray (or plum or brown) on eyelid, wherever you feel your eyeball shape
use a medium brownish/bronze shade in the crease to soften the edge of the lid shade
use the same lid shade along the bottom lash line-keep it smudgy
use a cream/gel liner in BLACK along upper lash line
with a wedge brush, apply black eyeshadow OVER liner, and blend up onto lid
do the same along lower lash line
use a black eye pencil on upper and lower waterline (inside eye)
curl lashes
apply TONS of BLACK mascara
add lashes, if you like, individual or a strip
add mascara, working natural lashes into false lashes
Now here's the SPIN...... GENTLY rub your eyes to smudge your eye makeup for that PIRATE LOOK
For your lips, go with a Deep Plum, Red, or Black.. for extra long wear, apply a lip pencil first, then lipstick on top.. OR use some of those FABULOUS new lip stains that are out there
For your hair, the dirtier, messier, the better!
I'll show you some examples in my next post!!
