Glitter Cut Crease makeup look

On Sunday for work I created a glittery smokey cut crease look and I got a lot of questions about it so I thought i would do a post on it. I'll try my best to explain!

On this look I started with my face, sometimes I start with my eyes to make sure nothing would fall on to my face but on this look It didn't matter which way. 
I started off with my Mac Natural Radience Primer, I used my normal foundations, Mac Studi Fix Fluid and Nars Sheer Glow, I just buff them into my skin with a buffer brush. Then to conceal my under eyes in use Mac Prolong Wear Concealer with my finger and just blend it in. Then I go on to my brows, I use Anastasia Beverly Hills Dipbrow in Chocolate and use the Prolongwear underneath to carve them out and to higlight the brow bone. Next I moved on my my eyes, with a cut crease you want to keep everything above the crease and keep the lid clean. I started with The Mac 24 hour eye base and then with Soft Brown by Mac as my transition colour with a Zoeva 221 brush, it's a soft fluffy blending brush. Then with a Mac 217 I used the Charlotte Tilbuty Dolce Vita Palette and i took the warm red brown and used it to deepen the crease. The to create the sharpe 'cut crease' I used a mac 266 brush, which is an angled brush, I took Embark by Mac and traced my crease and blended it up a little then I went back in with Embark to make the line stronger but still blended. Once I'd got the depth I wanted I went it with the sparkely shade from the Charlotte Tilbury palette with a Mac 242 shader and packed it on, it didn't come as Sparkley as I wanted so I put Mac Reflects Bronze over the top. I used Soft Brown and Brown Script eyeshadows under my eyes aswell and I used Mac 36 lashes. After eyes I carried on with my face, to highlight my undereyes I used Mac Prep + Prime Highlight pen in Light Boost and I use this with a BeautyBlender, this is how I create the sharpe line at the edge of my eyeshadow. Then I use my Mac Mineralize Skin Finish in Give Me Sun to bronze my temples and cheekbones. To set my undereyes I used Mac Shaping Powder in Emphasize and Anastasia Beverly Hills Banana Powder with a mac 132 brush. I used Becca blush in Sweetpea and highlighted with theBalm MaryLoumanizer. On my lips I have Mac Stripdown Lipliner with Sweer & Sour lipstick and Viva Glam V gloss!
Hoped this helped anyone who wanted to know how to recreate this look!
