A Gorgeous Colorful Makeup Look

Professional Makeup Artists Love The Make Up For Ever Flash Palette

When you want to create a look like the one above the product to grab is the Make Up For Ever 12 Flash Color Case. It’s a great tool with many different creative uses.  Like many other Make Up Forever products, the intensity of the colors in the color case are great. The colors are so intense, especially Red 017, the bright red, which works great as lipstick or blush, and the metallic colors, Gold 004 and Silver 003. These colors make great looks on their own, or they can be combined. Take a look at what you get.



How To Make Unique Cosmetic Colors The Easy Way

While the colors in the flash case are already unique on their own, they can be mixed to create other colors. The pure white, White 010, is especially great for this use. You can mix it with almost any of the other colors to brighten and lighten them, creating a whole new look. You can also mix it with other products you already own to change their look. Mixing pure white White 010 with Red 017 will create a pink that is perfect for lips and cheeks.

You can also use pure black, black 011, to deepen the colors of other products you already own. If you have an eye shadow color that you like but want to experiment, the black in the flash case is the perfect color for you. If you’d like to make a purple eye shadow have a dark side, you can mix it with black 011, to whatever intensity you like, to create a fun look.

The dark brown, brown 023 can also be used in a similar way. You can mix it with other browns you already own, or use it as a base layer, to darken the shadow when you apply it.

Designing Creative Looks Using the Color Case

There are so many different creative looks you can create using the color case. A good starter look is mixed metals, which are very fashionable right now. Here’s how to apply eyeshadow that will give you that sought after glimmer.

Apply the silver, silver 003, all over your lid to your brow bone.

Then apply gold, gold 004 to your crease, and with an eyeliner brush apply it to your bottom lash line.

To add a little fun, dab either silver or gold onto your inner corner.

You can get really creative and do your whole face using only the color case. Be sure to utilize fuscia 005, coral 002, and red 017 on your cheeks and lashes to complete your look.

The Make Up For Ever 12 Flash color case has so many uses, get creative and you will never be disappointed. In fact, you might just be left wondering how you got along without it!
