Not a lot of people cover Pocahontas so I wanted to cover her. I'll show you some tips on color stay lips, contouring, and how to change your eye shape.





So you are gonna start by preping and priming the skin, eyes, and lips.





1. Prep the skin first by moisturizing it with a basic moisturizing lotion, weather its MAC, Bare Mineral's, Make Up Forever, or Clinique. Let it soak in your skin for at least ten minutes.



2. Move onto the eyes and apply Too Faced Shadow Insurance, MAC Prep and Prime lid, or Urban Decay Primer Potion. Let it soak for a minute.



3. Move onto the lips. Apply MAC Lip Conditoner, or chapstick, or lip balm. Whatever you have. Let that soak.



4. Apply MAC Paint Pot in Indian Wood (antique gold with frost) to the lid and into the crease. Pat it on evenly. I just use my fingertips. Don't drag your nails through the cream.



5. Using MAC's 239 shader brush (white stiff paddle brush with natural hair) and MAC's eyeshadow in Texture (peachy gold brown with shimmer) pat it on the lid over the paint pot. Don't sweep it across or the color won't stay on well.



6. Using MAC's 227 (fat fluffy eye highlighter brush-natural with black hairs) pat MAC's eyeshadow in Orb (soft peachy biege-satin) onto the brow bone and blend down into the crease right into Texture eyeshadow.



7. Using Urban Decay's liquid liner in Oil Slick (soft black with bronze shimmer). I think Urban Decay's Pervursion (matte black) is a little harsh for this look, and I want to set Pocahontas apart, she's sort of the earth goddess. Start by using a Pocahontas reference pic to get the eye look. It helps to start in the center of the lid, and work your way back. Pull lid upward gently, and draw upward with the applicator in a round shape. Some people prefer to dip their MAC 208 or any stiff angled brush onto the applicator for pure precision of lining work. If you have difficulty with liquid liners try that tip or a felt tip pen liner. You'll eventually learn to love liquid liners with practice and techniques that work to your advantage. Lower the lid gently, and fill in the gap where the lash line is and don't smudge or draw a tail outward. Connect a thin line from the inner eyelid to the center. Don't smudge. The line should be prgressing further back into a thicker line, like a reverse eyebrow.



8. Using MAC's Eye Kohl pencil in Feline (Feline is harder to find-but its inkier than Smolder-use Smolder if you can't get your hands on Feline) fill in the waterline, and draw the line a little deeper and thicker in the outer corner. Smudge out a little just below the waterline. Using MAC's 239 brush pat Urban Decay's eyeshadow in Midnight Cowboy Rides Again (glittery taupe) into the center only of the lid for some Disney flair.



9. Using the MAC 208 (brown) stiff angled brush and Urban Decay's eyeshadow in Oil Slick (black with shimmer) apply a small angle of it right where you smudged out the waterline, just to angle up the eye a nudge and have it appear more exotic. Smudge it out with a MAC 219 or 217. I like the 217 (white) for upper eyelid and the 219 for lower lid preferrably. The MAC 219 (white) is the pencil dome shader brush, the 217 is an oval shader. It's a little more oval and short and tapered than the MAC 222 (white), and the MAC 222 is smaller than its big sister which is the 224 (black).



8. Apply Tarte 424% mascara in black. Start at the lash base and wiggle up. Apply a couple coats to upper lashes. Using Andrea's Modlashes in #301 (small black half lashes) apply to the outer corner. I don't want the lashes too heavy for Pocahontas. But she is a Disney character, and she is gorgeous, so I don't want her to be the Plain Jane of the series.



9. Reference her brow shape, and use your brow color, fill in the gaps and make them look natural. Brow powder or an eyeshadow is best. I hate the falseness of brow pencils.



10. Apply Jergen's glow lotion to face, choose the depth closest to your tone, fair, medium, or dark. This is a building product. So a few days before wearing the look you can try to healthily build your glow.



11. Let it dry for a while. Three minutes. It will act as a primer for this look. Apply foundation in your color. Sweep bronzer in a the E shape contour the forehead, get the cheekbone, avoid going heavy on the jawline so you don't get the line of demarcation look.



12. Apply the bronzer on the apples of the cheeks gently, and blend upward into the hairline. I used a MAC MSF in Comfort or you can try Sunny By Nature.



13. I applied MAC MSF in Candlelight (Warm & Cozy Collection-limited edition) to my cheekbones. This color is a soft peachy pink, to the apples of the cheeks softly for a glow.



14. For the lips I used Urban Decay 24/7 lip crayon in Naked and filled my lips in all the way, contouring their natural shape. I didn't accentuate how pointed my cupids bow is (mine is severely pointed) because Pocahontas' mouth shape is different, its more round than mine. I din't want to make it too costumey or reshaped because it looks gross, especially if you eat later.





15. I used MAC Pro Longwear lip color in For Keeps (dewey plum with shimmer) and let it sit on my lips and dry completely.





16. I then applied MAC lipstick in Lady Bug (yellow tomato red-lustre) to get the perfect stained berry lip without being to red or in your face.





17. I picked up my Pro Long Wear lip color and flipped it to the clear gloss side, and added some shine, particularly in the center.





*Note-If your lips are already fuller, darker, or rounder you can skip some steps, or still do all the following--mostly wanted to show you a quick tip on how to properly use pro long wear lip colors so that your lips do last all day through eating, drinking, smoking, and don't break, or flake or highlight chapped areas.
