How To: Pride Eye Makeup Look

The Queen Of Curls6 years ago

This month, we're celebrating all things Pride with our third special designed box of the year. We've added a splash of colour to our classic pink GLOSSYBOX, embracing the rainbow.

The rainbow has been a symbol of LGBT Pride around the world for 40 years after gay rights activist, army veteran and artist Gilbert Baker made a rainbow flag for the 1978 Gay Freedom Pride Parade in San Francisco! This flag caught on as a symbol of Pride instantly and the rest is history.

Inspired by the iconic rainbow flag and this month's box, I've created an amazing pride makeup look that you can try yourself!

For this tutorial I used the BH Cosmetics 'Take Me Back To Brazil' palette.

Step 1: Add a base to paint onto, I used MUA Intense Colour Eyeliner Pencil

Step 2: Red

Step 3: Orange

Step 4: Yellow

Step 5: Green

Step 6: Blue

Step 7: Violet

Step 8: Add some sparkle, I used the Rimmel Ink Me Sticker Tattoos

We'd love to see you recreate this amazing Pride look so send us your pics by tagging @glossyboxuk and using #glossyboxuk!

I am always searching for future trends - beauty, fashion, hair, you name it! I’ve tried every foundation under the sun and love trying up-and-coming makeup brands to compare them with the big names. Variety is the spice of life and my makeup bag is definitely wide-ranging.
