FOTD- Glossy GrungeTarred Eyes

Photobucket
Glossy eyes always look so perfect in magazines, but the truth? They crease like a b*tch in the blink of an eye...literally. I used OCC lip tar on my eyes. NOT recommended, it contains peppermint oil which will irritate most eyes, but I have a tendency to break the rules on my own face. It gave an oil slicked look that actually didn't crease as noticeably, but again go with a clear gloss over a black base for safety & the same effect.

To minimize the focus of the "crease line", I used a mini fan brush (MUD #500)  to feather out the edges & create further texture. A controlled mess if you will.
