Practical lesson - Black eye

Technique:

• Have image of a real black eye for guidance
• Using a 'bruise wheel', and small make-up brushes, apply darker colours to the inner corner of the eye socket, and follow the socket round
• Use lighter purple, red and yellow colours on the outside of the eye
• Red eye pencil can make the eye appear sore
• Red eye drops can make eyes appear bloodshot
• Dab on Vaseline if the bruise looks a little matte, to add a bit of shine
