Melt Cosmetics Gun Metal Stack Tutorial

I’ve got a mostly one brand look to share today. This is my Melt Cosmetics Gun Metal Stack tutorial. I bought this stack when it first came out and then promptly ran out of time to play with it. So once I had time, I was really excited with it. Assimilate is such a perfect grey taupe shade to work with. I love it! The Melt Cosmetics Gun Metal stack is vegan.

How To

1. After you apply your eyeshadow primer, lightly dust your favorite skintone shade base shade on top of the primer. I used Walk of Shame. This will make it easier to blend later on.
2. With a fluffy brush, take Melt Assimilate and softly apply to the crease (hood) of the eye and the outer lid. Build up the color at the outer v area.
3. Put Darling Girl Glitter Glue (or another sticky base) on the lid, then brush Melt Gun Metal onto the lid.
4. Smudge Melt Assimilate along the lower lid, then layer Industrial on top of it.
5. Highlight at the inner corner with Melt Harsh Stone White on a fluffy brush. Then use black liner on the lower waterline.

Excuse the totally casual hair. I just twisted it up into a clip to get it out of the way. My red color is still going strong thanks to my Overtone go deep conditioning mask. Love this stuff!

I did not experience fallout when I applied Gun Metal to the lid because I used a sticky base. However, since I skipped the sticky base on the lower lid, there was some fallout from Industrial.

I love love love the Makeup Geek highlighters! Moon Phase is so gorgeous. The ones for porcelain skin are PERFECTION. They’re great as cheek highlighters, eyeshadows or inner corner highlights.
