Arabic Inspired Look

To recreate this highly talked about look, follow the steps listed below. Remember, it’s safer than ever to have fun with your makeup using Mahya Cosmetics!

Step 1: Apply Mahya Eye Primer to entire area of eyes with the Oval Concealer Brush.

Step 2: Using the Pointed Crease & Wet/Dry Brush’s dry fluff crease side, apply Violet mineral eye shadow to the outer corners of the eye lids thickly just slightly passing the crease line.

Step 3: Then using the same brush, apply Barbie mineral eye shadow to the center of the eyelid. Again, just slightly extending the color pass the crease line. Be sure to not take color all the way to inner corner of eyes.

Step 4: Using the same brush (after cleansed), apply Silky Pink mineral eye shadow to the brow bone of your eye for a highlight. Also apply to inner corner of eyes for the extra highlight.

Step 5: With the opposite side of the same brush, which is the pointed side, apply Gothic mineral eye shadow to upper lash line very thin. Bring this out into a cat eye and inward again way above the crease line. It should appear as if a sideways triangle. Gently blend Gothic mineral eye shadow from the point of this triangle inwards to the Violet mineral eye shadow.

Step 6: Using the same brush and Gothic eye shadow, apply this to the bottom lash line thick and extending this out away from the cat eye point you made earlier. This should create a space between the upper lines from the bottom ones.

Step 7: With the same brush (cleansed), apply Silky Pink mineral eye shadow below the Gothic mineral eye shadow that was applied to the bottom lashline thick. Also apply this to the space on the outer corner of eyes between the cat eye line and the bottom black under line.

The final look should look similar to the picture posted. I hope you enjoyed creating this look and we would love to see the other Arabic inspired looks that maybe you have come up with!
