MAC Makeup Fafi Tutorial: A Black and Gold Smokey Eye

February 19th, 2008 by Karen 75 Comments

MAC Makeup Fafi Tutorial: A Black and Gold Smokey Eye

I finally got my paws on MAC Fafi yesterday, and all I have to say is MEOW! Love it. This morning I busted out a few things from the collection — Fafi Eyes 1 Quad, Nice Vice Paint Pot and the Not So Innocent Lipstick — and created this subtle gold and black smokey eye for work.

mac-fafi-final-look.jpg

A few days ago, after the super-spy MAC Fafi swatch mission, I fell in love with Fafi’s Paint Pots (love Nice Vice!) and lipsticks but wasn’t floored by the eyeshadow quads. I changed my tune after playing with the Fafi Eyes 1 Quad ($36) this mornin’. The colors work with my skin tone (so far the shades “Hey” and “Vanilla” are my faves), and the textures apply like butter. If you love neutral eyeshadows, I think you’ll dig this quad.

Now, on to the look! New to semi-complicated makeup? Don’t despair. If you’ve ever worn at least two eyeshadow colors at a time, then you can certainly handle this. Yes! You! Can!

Products I used to create the look…

  1. Dior Long-Wearing Moisturizing Concealer in shade 430
  2. MAC Fafi Eyes 1 Quad – Vanilla eyeshadow
  3. MAC Paint Pot – Nice Vice
  4. MAC Fafi Eyes 1 Quad – Howzat eyeshadow
  5. MAC Fafi Eyes 1 Quad – Hey
  6. MAC Fluidline Eyeliner – Blacktrack
  7. MAC Eyeshadow – Concrete
  8. MAC Zoom Lash mascara – Zoomblack
  9. MAC Barbie Beauty Powder – Pearl Blossom
  10. MAC Cremestick Lip Liner – Sublime Culture
  11. MAC Glaze Lipstick – Not So Innocent
  12. MAC Lipglass – Clear

mac-cosmetics-fafi-1


Brushes and tools I used (from left to right)…

  1. Shu Uemura Eyelash Curler
  2. MAC 266 small angle brush
  3. MAC 194 concealer brush
  4. MAC 249 large shader brush
  5. Sephora all over shadow brush
  6. MAC 239 eye shading brush
  7. MAC 209 eyeliner brush
  8. MAC 129 powder/blush brush
  9. Sonia Kashuk large powder brush
  10. Billy B Beauty Paintbrush No. 4

Missing from the picture below are the MAC 219 pencil brush and the MAC 136 covered lip brush. They were hiding beneath a piece of paper when I snapped this shot, the sneaky bastards.

mac-cosmetics-fafi-2

I divided the eye look into two phases, and here’s a map detailing the placement of the eyeshadows/ Paint Pot in Phase 1:
eye-map-1.jpg

For Phase 1 you’ll be using…

  1. Vanilla eyeshadow on browbone
  2. Nice Vice Paint Pot on inner lid
  3. Howzat eyeshadow on outer lid
  4. Hey eyeshadow on center of the lid

Begin by blending an even layer of Dior concealer onto the entire surface of your eyelid. This gives the eye products we’re about to use something to latch onto and intensifies the color of the eyeshadows.
mac-cosmetics-fafi-3.jpg

Next, apply Vanilla eyeshadow to your browbone with the Sephora all over shadow brush.
mac-cosmetics-fafi-4.jpg

Using the MAC 249 large shader brush, apply Nice Vice Paint Pot to the inner lid.
mac-cosmetics-fafi-5

This is what it should look like so far:
mac-cosmetics-fafi-6

Now, take your MAC 239 eye shading brush and apply Howzat eyeshadow to the outer third of the eyelid.
mac-cosmetics-fafi-7

Using the same brush, apply Hey eyeshadow to the center of the eyelid. Blend away any harsh lines.
mac-cosmetics-fafi-8

Congrats, you sexy thang! You’ve finished Phase 1.
mac-cosmetics-fafi-9

Now, ’tis time for Phase 2, where you’ll add more definition to your upper and lower lashes. Here’s a map to guide you:
mac-cosmetics-fafi-20

For Phase 2 you’ll be using…

  1. Fluidline eyeliner on upper lash line
  2. Howzat eyeshadow on upper and lower lash line
  3. Hey eyeshadow on upper and lower lash line

First, trace a thin black line along the top lash line with your MAC 209 eyeliner brush. Instead of trying to do it in one long stroke (which I find difficult to do), it may help to apply the liner in sections. Using the thin pointed tip of the brush to smooth out the line, start with the outer third, then the center, and finally the inner third of your lash line.

mac-cosmetics-fafi-10

This is what you should have:
mac-cosmetics-fafi-11

Next up, grab a MAC 219 pencil brush and apply Howzat eyeshadow over the line you just made on your upper lash line. Apply the same eyeshadow to your lower lash line with the same brush.
mac-cosmetics-fafi-12

Still with the same brush, blend Hey eyeshadow just above the Howzat you just applied to both the upper and lower lashlines.
mac-cosmetics-fafi-13

You’re almost done! Fill in your brows with Concrete eyeshadow and a MAC 266 small angle brush. Curl your lashes, and apply two coats of MAC Zoomblack mascara to your top and bottom.

Plagued by dark circles? Quickly clean up any stray shadows with a DHC Olive Oil Swab, and apply Dior concealer to hide your dark circles with the MAC 194 brush. Dust a layer of Laura Mercier Secret Brightening Powder #2 with a brush like the Billy B Paintbrush No. 4 to set the concealer.

The eyes are done…
mac-cosmetics-fafi-14

Now, it’s time for the lips. Line your pucker with MAC’s Sublime Culture Cremestick liner. With a MAC 316 covered lip brush, add one layer of Not So Innocent Glaze Lipstick, blot, add a second layer to ramp up the sparkle factor and top it off with a layer of MAC Clear Lipglass.

mac-cosmetics-fafi-17

To complete the look, apply your favorite foundation and setting powder. I used Chanel Teint Innocence compact foundation in 50 Natural and Laura Mercier’s translucent setting powder. With a MAC 129 blush brush, apply MAC Pearl Blossom Beauty Powder to your cheeks, and now you’re ready to rock!

I hope you had as much fun with this as I did. 🙂

    Awesome!! I love this detailed tutorial! I love the Fafi line! I didn’t get the Nice Vice paint pot, but I think I may have to go back and get it! I was afraid that my eyelids were too oily for it, but the lady assured me it actually helps oily lids, and she used Rollickin’ on me and it stayed put all day long!! I am so impressed!!!!

    Also, you look fabulous as always, dahhhling!

    Do you think it would work as well with the cash flow paint pot??
    Thats the one ive got my eye on when it eventually comes out over here!

    Finally! The long awaited entry on something from the Fafi line!

    With regards to the brush issue I posed you, well, ditching the MAC150 isn’t really easy. A 38,50eur brush simply isn’t supposed to behave like that, and I’m on student budget =( It almost makes me think that a much cheaper brush from The Body Shop would be of a higher quality!

    Okay, I searched your blog to find any brush reviews that I could. There’s this BillyB range that you were raving about, and I thought I might buy a powder brush from the website for application of my MAC StudioFix and blush. Which would you recommend, the BB brush 1 or 3? They look the same to me, but 1 is supposed to be rounder.

    And thank you for a year of great reviews. May there be many more to come!

    I’m not that impressed with Fafi collection. I love “Cash Flow” the paint pot because I’m a sucker for paint pots and soft yellow colors. But somehow the MAC counter in town managed (again) to sell out most of the stuff from Fafi collection. The MUA also commented on how nice I looked with “Sugar Trance” but I was too bummed from not getting “Cash Flow” so I didn’t buy the lip glass.

    Congrats on turning 1! I love the pink cat and was tempted to ask you what’s the deal with this pink cat as well as the regular stripped one. Do you have cats?

    Such a beautiful look, you are getting so incredible with those tutorials! I was looking at Fafi yesterday, and I think I might get the paint pot in Girl Friendly, it is lovely! I wanted the lipstick in Utterly Frivolous, just because of the name (tres appropos!) but I couldn’t quite get comfortable with the bright color and the sparkle at the same time!

    Fafi 1 looks very similar to Winter Nights! Great quad!

    Hi Karen!

    I really like how you do the tutorials now with graphics to show the areas. I always had a hard time translating what “now blend mid-lid to crease…” meant for my lil asian eyes.

    Your eye at the end of phase one reminded me of neopolitan ice cream- strawberry, vanilla and chocolate!

    And happy bday to the blog! I can’t tell you how many times you’ve gotten me to try a new shade because it looked so great on your skin tone…

    Hi Mariah,

    Nice Vice is *very pretty* and extremely wearable. If your lids are super oily one thing you can do is prime them first with Urban Decay Potion Primer, and then pop the Paint Pot right on top. Now that won’t move through ANYTHING! 🙂

    I didn’t knit the sweater above. I wish I did though! That’s awesome that you’ve got the skills to do something like it – I can do scarves, but that’s about it. I have about 20 scarves that done in the past three or four years. I don’t knit as much as I’d like these days, but I want to get back into it again, because it’s a relaxing, fun and creative outlet.

    I hope you’re having a good day 🙂

    I was afraid of the same paleness too, but when combined with any sort of pink/tan/neutral lip liner makes for a very neutral and pretty lip color! I was very surprised once I had it on. It was love…

Welcome to Makeup and Beauty Blog
Hi there! I’m Karen, your friendly neighborhood beauty addict, and I’m a Bay Area girl who hoards brown eyeshadow and covets coral lipstick. Every morning, I wake up and say, “I’m going to do something other than a smoky eye today.” Then…I end up doing a smoky eye anyway (most days). When I’m not putting on makeup, taking pictures of makeup or writing about makeup, which I’ve been doing daily since 2007 (!), you’ll find me hanging out with my hubby (“El Hub”), my four-year-old daughter (Connor Claire) and my torbie girl cat (Pretty Girl Rosie, a.k.a. PGR).
