High Fashion is ON you!



Hello! 
I made htis tutorial because i think makeup is essential i really wish someone will do a CC  mekup that is really high-fashion and that works well in our sims, but i don´t think that's possible, but nothing is impossible here! So i'm going to teach you how to make really high-fashioned make up to kick some asses out! 


Ice Pin-Up Princess! 


EYES!

SO first.. If your sim in this photo is having natural in-game lashes i recommend you to
delete them so we can have a more clear view of the lid! All you have to do is select
the area around the eyelash and then use the clone stamp tool to make it dissappear!



You have to create a pallete with the colors you want to apply, remember, high-fashion
make up isn´t about just one plain color in you lid, it's about a risky mix of beautiful colors
that match togheter and different shades effects, so apply on your sim lid the different, colors 
(each color in a seperated layer).



Now, smudge every color (with the smudge tool OFC) so everything can belnd perfectly,
do this until the shadows blend really good and there's no solid lines between each color.




Now in the inner corner put some of the lighter color of your palette and smudge it into 
the lid of your sim and under the eye (in the waterline)





And with the darkest color do the same but creating a crease them smudge it.
You can also add a highlight under the brow but it's optional.



Now it's time for the eyeliner, create a black line over and under your eye and finish it with
a wing, then you can slightly smudge it!



Now merge down all the layers except the liner
To add texture (i got this tip from Jillie! thnx babe!)
Pick your sharp tool and use it all over ur shadows so it looks like
a shimmer eyeshadow! i added a little but you can add as much as you want!



Now it's time for the final touch.. ADD LASHES!
Most of high fashion shots have LONG eyelashes which makes your eyes really attractive and seductive!
For mine i used an eyelash brush, you can find a lot in google!






BLUSH!


Well add blush it's really easy but if you don´t know how it could be 
really needed a tutorial like this one! 

First, on a new layer, create a line following your sim's cheek bone, use a really strong color 
because at the end you can change the opacity and blending.



Now, add A Gaussian BLur to this layer about 10px, i know, that isn´t look like it's
enough to blend it, so you have to press  Ctrl+F as much as needed until you get a good blur,
now once you've done that change the blending mode to "Soft Light" and if you want
you can change the opacity down!



LIPS!

Changing lips color it's really easy! all you have to do is..

First, on a new layer add the color you want your lips to be! from green to very hot pink!
any color! and add a Gaussian blur of 5px.


Now, erase all the color that goes out from the lip area with a small eraser and change the
blending mode to Tone.

And now add a gloss in the center of the lips, i'm using a gloss brush! there at tons
at the internet! :) 



You can use the liquify tool to change your sim's expression and make it look more
interesting!

And ta-daa!! The whole Pin-Up princess look is ready!
You can try to with every color you imagine and different styles of adding shadows!
Just GO WILD!
