Ermergerd. I got two indie makeup orders on the same day! It was pretty exciting to arrive to two packages once getting home, and it was actually a little overwhelming (I may have bought a lot...). I got a lot of stuff from the Hello Waffle Cosmetics anniversary sale and then got the entire sample set of Dawn Eyes Cosmetics Spearl Matte Collection. I have heard much about Hello Waffle and glad to do this tutorial today with many of their eyeshadows! I also used one of the Dawn Eyes matte eyeshadows and really enjoyed using it; I got a recommendation to try these matte shadows from a user on reddit named daisyismydog and really glad to have finally pulled the trigger!
Ok, short story about me being scared of trying Hello Waffle. I have heard lots and lots about them but never tried them because they had so many shimmery shadows. The camera I had before my Canon would make a lot of my shimmery shadows look like garbage when photographed. I would always lean away with anything from shimmer because it just did not look good. Well, my fear was overcame by my new camera because it really captures makeup well and shimmery shades actually look pretty good. No, they do look good. And then they had the anniversary sale... and life digresses.
Anyways, here is the final look!
Tutorial after the jump!
Add a primer before starting. I used NARS Smudgeproof Eyeshadow Base.

| Add a transition shade. Make sure that it has rosy undertones. PRODUCT USED: Dawn Eyes Cosmetics Taupe Matte BRUSH USED: Sigma E40 |

| Add a light purple or rose gold to the inner 2/3 of the lid. Pick your color. If you ordered from the HW anniversary sale, use Lumps! :) PRODUCT USED: Hello Waffle Cosmetics Hot Cross Bunnies BRUSH USED: Anastasia Double-Ended Brush (came with Maya Mia palette) |
 |
| Add a medium berry to the outer third of the lid. Make sure that it blends well into the previous color we put on the lid. PRODUCT USED: Hello Waffle Cosmetics I Like Your Catitude BRUSH USED: Anastasia Double-Ended Brush (came with Maya Mia palette) |

| Blend that same medium berry color into the crease. Bring it up as far in and up as you are comfortable with. PRODUCT USED: Hello Waffle Cosmetics I Like Your Catitude BRUSH USED: MAC 222 |

| Add a dark berry-burgundy shade to the outer-v and blend. PRODUCT USED: Hello Waffle Cosmetics Shades of Red BRUSH USED: Anastasia Double-Ended Brush (came with Maya Mia palette) |

| Add the medium berry on most of the lower lash line. Leave the inner corner empty or add a highlight there. PRODUCT USED: Hello Waffle Cosmetics I Like Your Catitude BRUSH USED: Anastasia Double-Ended Brush (came with Maya Mia palette) |
 |
| Add the dark berry-burgundy close to your lashes and blend. I brought that color down on the outer 1/3 of the lower lash line. PRODUCT USED: Hello Waffle Cosmetics Shades of Red BRUSH USED: MAC 214 |

| Add mascara and optional false lashes and done! I used KoKo Lahses in Koko. |
