Quick and Dirty Cut Crease

This is the look I'm wearing for work today. Its SUPER easy and it really doesn't take very long if you have the right brushes. I used to think "cutting the crease" was really hard but after watching a few videos and practicing myself (click links for 2 different versions) I think I got it. And it really only took about 10 minutes!

I've been wearing a simple version, like the one above, of a "cut crease" for the past 3 days, including today. I have found that the Mac 239, E.L.F. Blending Brush or Posh Eyeliner Duo (the side that looks like a mini 239) work best, at least for me. I will be doing a tutorial on this soon, but for now just a FOTD .

Eyes: (all Mac unless otherwise noted)
Highlight: Ricepaper
Crease: Random no name brown, you should be able to find in in the 88 or 120 palette
Lid: Vanilla
Liner: Coco Bar Liquid Last (any brown will do)
Black mascara
Brows: Brun

Lips:
Bobbi Brown Suede lip liner
Mac Icon lipstick
Mac Oh Baby Lip Glass

Face:
Arbonne BefoRE Sun Damage Control Water Resistant Sunscreen SPF 30
Light dusting of Paula Dorf No Color translucent powder
Mac blush in Prism
Mineralized Skin Finish Duo, light side only as a highlight
Stila Contour Trio - Dark for cheek contour

Let me know what you think :)
