Cocktailing (Part I)

Cocktailing (verb) The act of mixing cosmetics to create exciting, customized beauty products.

On a recent visit to an Estee Lauder counter my eyes were tired from staying up late the night before (blame it on SANTACON!). They offer Signature Services (free mini make-overs on the spot!). One of them is a Fatigue Fighter for eyes. At the end of the service my eyes looked rested, brighter and just much better!

DD, the consultant explained everything she was doing step by step. (Apply concealer after applying foundation, you will apply less concealer if you do it in this order.)

1) Using the Cooling Eye Illuminator‘ s (an awesome depuffing and highlighting creation) unique ergonomic applicator, apply around both eyes. Avoid your tear ducts and the inside of your eyes. (Tip: Don’t overdo it with the amount of product. The cooling applicator feels so nice and cold under eyes though, this you can overdo!)

2) Next, put two pearl size amounts of the Cooling Eye illuminator and same amounts for the Double Wear Stay-in-Place Concelear on the front part of your hand and mix!

3) Using a concealer brush, dab this concoction around all your eye area. Don’t be scared to extend this over your upper cheek and side of your nose. Just remember to blend it well into your skin. You don’t have to use all the product mixed on your hand, use what you need.

4) Using a big powder brush, seal with mineral or translucent powder. Avoid using pressed powder because it may come on too heavy and make your eyes look wrinkly.

There! Our first lesson of cocktailing and beautiful eyes!
