Hey everyone!
I hadn’t done anything with blue in the September Daily Look Challenge so far. So for Day 17 today, I did simple look with an intense navy blue eye shadow as the focus of the look. I used a single blue shade from the Sleek Makeup Bad Girl Palette and smoked it out with a matte brown shadow. To complement the eyes, I used a peachy pink blush and a matte nude pink lipstick, both from NYX.

How to create this eye makeup look :
– Start by laying down a base on the lid with black kohl. Just apply a thick line along the lash line and smudge it using a fluffy brush.
– Next, apply an intense blue eye shadow all over the lid taking care not to go beyond the socket line. Work in layers to create an intense wash of blue.
– Using a clean fluffy brush, blend the blue in the crease with the help of matte medium brown eye shadow. You could also use another lighter matte brown to further add a gradient to the look.
– Tightline the eyes with black kohl.
– Highlight the browbone with a frosty beige eye shadow.
– Finish off the look by curling lashes and adding 2 coats of mascara.

hi ankita … this is really nice dear and u look faboulous as always …
i have 2 shades of chambor trio eyeshadow , one is of copper trio and other is darkblue … but i rarely use dat blue one …
i have one query regarding eyeshadow ::
why u apply black eyeshadow in base ??
where it is required … ???
Hi Prachi, a black base makes the eye shadow color pop. Makes it more intense and rich. Do note I use either a black cream eye shadow or smudged kohl as base – not a black powder eye shadow.
ohh thanks my dear ankita ..lov u 🙂
Spectacular look and such a brilliant shade of blue!
As,usual lovely
Stunning eye look Ankita.
Love your eye makeup

Killer look. Such beautiful combination! This is a perfect nude lip colour that might suit me. You look stunning 🙂
its amazing Ankita and the pictures are really good. ..fantastic clarity. …the next eye shadow i would love to see is Yellow 🙂
Hi Ankita,
Blue looks fab on you. Any idea where can i find NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream in Mumbai? thanks
You could try Beauty Center chain of stores. They have branches in Khar, Crawford Market and Kandivali.
love love love! This is perfection Ankita! You always make it seem so easy! I’m so trying this. Now onto finding a perfect blue eyeshadow. also the pics are superb… bring out the colors so well.
Thanks!! 🙂 You could check out All Night Blue from L'Oreal Infallible range, its similar to the one I've used!
Gorgeous..stunning…loved every bit of it..Ankita please can you do a swatch post for all nyx matte lip creams?
a bold one…but u still rocked it
Ankita, can I do this same look with loreal infallible eyeshadow all night blue? You are looking beautiful as always. Is it a necklace or hair accessory? I liked your eye makeup so much. But not liked that lipstick. I don't like that type of matte finish. I will dab a little bit of gloss in the centre part of lips at least.
Stunningly I love the headpieces you are using these days
Gorg! is only what i could spell after seeing yo looks…
But i am personally not fond of NYX soft cream as they tend to accentuate my fine lines and also leave my lips dry.
Now this is more like an Arabic inspired look. More like belly dancer actually.
Hey Ankita. Please do video tutorial on this. I am in love with this look.. <3 🙂
This is so gorgeous !!! Please do a video tutorial on this.
