Hey guys! Reptar here ♥ This is a tut, which I apologize for the lengthiness and sloppiness of XD.
I kind of had a hard time since I wasn't wearing my glasses >< Hope I did alright haha!

So today we're looking at... The Emo/Scene trend that's been red hot these past few years. That means BOLD eyes, neutral lips, and lots of attitude (; Of course, this is only my take of it.
-Please note that I look REALLY STUPID in these photos LOLOL!-

With any type of makeup I want to do, I ALWAYS start off with some basics- Face primer, lip balm, eye primer, foundation, and powder.

Once you have finished with YOUR basics, let's get started on this look!

1.
Bringing out the inner Izzy Hilton and Dani Gore, both have worn dolly pink blush. With a fluffy blush brush, sweep on a pink blush that suits your tone. I'm using MAC blush, which I've had forever and I don't know the shade, sorry D:

Things to Remember- Don't put on TOO much blush, or you're gonna look like someone bitchslapped you silly! gonk

2.
Now eyeliner is no doubt, the most difficult, annoying, stressful pain in the butt of this makeup style. You want thick, bold, sullen, blacker than black eyes. It can be the classic rimmed look, or styled, like how I (painstakingly) did.
Eyeliner can also be used in many forms such as Gel (what I did), Liquid, and the original Pen. They all have relatively different was of application, try to see which one suits your hand best.

Starting with my HIP Color Truth Cream Liner in Black

Load up your brush with the cream liner, and if you have excess, wipe it on the rim so that excess doesn't go on another part of your face!

Now this is the fun/annoying fits of rage part (;
Taking your brush, line your lid with a thick, bold stroke. For added flair, add a 'tail' at the end of your stroke.

Line the bottom rim of your eye, and if you want add any other flair (such as the dramatic 'boxxy' line i decided to do )

You can choose to leave this thin, or amp it up with a thicker line stroke (:

3.
Curl & Mascara your lashes (: (I'm using the E.L.F lash curler and PRESCRIPTIVES vibrating mascara)

4.
If you want an even bolder look, fill and shape your brows

5.
Now for that neutral lipstick! Generally, I know some girls who use their foundation on their lips. That kind of iffs me, so I chose lipstick instead.
I'm using Estee Lauder Signature Lipstick in 66 ROSE AMETHYST.
Swipe on two to three coats (:

Now slip on your favorite band shirt and a comfy black hoodie, shake your hair out and be wild ;D

Wow, lord knows that sort of makeup takes loads of practice. You know how you always see the girls (and even guys sometimes *shudder*) walking around school, the mall, or wherever else looking like they woke up and decided it was a raccoon cosplay day or something. XDDDDD

Most definitely. It's a personal peeve of mine when people do this kind of eyeliner sloppily, because it's very obvious. And it's EXTREMELY ANNOYING to get allll that eyeliner off, soo much black pigment got smeared across my face when i took this look off ;___;
Personally I'd like to stick with rusty shadow and some mascara with a smidge of eyeliner on top ><

Definitely not something I would wear on a regular basis, although I know people who do.
I think you did an amaaaazing job!
If looks could kill, I'd be dead. x.x
