Step 1:
Start by applying the IllamasquaMatte Veil Primer to use as a base. Avoid using any foundation or concealer in case you make any mistakes when you are painting the mask as this will make it harder to correct. Instead, the mask will create a full coverage barrier over the face to distract from any imperfections.Another great primer to use is the Smashbox
Step 2:
After applying primer as a base, use the IllamasquaPrecision Gel Liner in shade Infinity and start by outlining the mask. The smooth, water-resistant formula will glide on to effortlessly to deliver intense colour with ultimate staying power and help you to create the shape you desire. If you prefer to use a liquid try the Eyeko Black Magic Liquid Eyeliner. The precision tip brush allows for fool proof application, so you can create thin to thick lines with ease.
Step 3:
Once you have the outline, start by creating the main shapes of the mask. Divide the mask into segments and start filling them in. Start with using the IllamasquaLiner Brush to help with the detailed line work. Then take the IllamasquaSmoulder Brush to create the thicker and more rounded areas such as the petals inside the pattern. Keep going from the big parts to the small details until you have created the full mask.
