Since I knew this was going to be a bronzey look, I decided to start with an Almay Liquid Shadow and Color Primer in the shade Nude. This provides a super sheer wash of color, but acts as a nice base and is actually a pretty decent primer. It could be used on its own for a really understated look.
Next I applied Coppering really heavily in the inner corner and blended over the rest of the lid, leave the outer third mostly clear. When I want a really smokey, sultry look I love blending the color in the area above the tear duct.
This is almost like a reverse smokey eye because the lightest color is actually going on the outer corner. I blended in the sandy colored shade from the Josie Maran palette (pictured below). Make sure to blend the two colors together and blend out the edges with a clean brush to make it soft.
Next I used a pencil brush to apply Coppering all along the lower lashline.
Coppering has a lot of red in it, so when placed below the eye you can almost look a little sick. To avoid that, I used a dark brown liner along my water line. I also applied a matte, white highlighter under the eyebrow to balance out all the shimmer going on on the lid.
To finish off the eyes I messily applied a dark mascara to the upper and lower lashes.
For the lips, I went with a peachy toned lip stick underneath a nude gloss.
On the cheeks I applied a bright pinky/coral blush, bronzer and highlighter (all shown in the materials section).
Done! I hope my fly-aways don't bug you guys as much as they bug me haha!

Hey Sarah! Have you tried pairing with it something like Woodwinked? Woodwinked all over the lid with Coppering just on the outer corner I think would be gorgeous, try it!
