NYNY Challenge No.2! Who's made it to the Hall of Fame?

Hi  Guys! 

Its time to reveal our favourite photos from the elf NYNY Challenge!  Last week we challenged you all to brave the cateye look and see how creative you can get with your eyeliners. 

So here are our top pics for the Hall of Fame Gallery (see Hall of Fame Tab Above). We just thought we'd give a little feedback to why these lovely ladies has been chosen!

so here goes...

Beth Carleton: Its easy to see why Beth made it into our "Hall of Fame" with her High Precision eyeliner and creativity! We absolutely love the Leopard print detail and definition of the eyes. Recreate this look with Elf studio Cream liner. If you fancy being a little brave why not attempt to recreate the leopard print with some gold or copper eyeshadow and some black eyeliner. Shop our wide range of eyeshadows at www.eyeslipsface.co.uk

Dunja Auror Kupina's heavy liner is dramatic yet subtle somehow, we love the way she's angled it at the corners for an edgy look. Achieve this look using Elf Cream liner for a jet black finish or if you prefer a not so dramatic look opt for the elf waterproof eyeliner pen for more control and precise line.

Dyna: Well done to Dyna for creating a perfect cateye. We love that shes brought the liner to the inner and outer corners for a purrfectly feline look!

Elena Rosenberg's delicate take on the winged liner is subtle but equally beautiful! We love that her flick follows the natural shape of her eyes giving them great definition and shape!

Julia Minuti: We almost fell in love with Julia when we saw her photo! Her softly lined eyes, glowy skin and soft pink lips gave this whole look a very whimsical feel! We love it!

Kristy Shipman: Congratulations to Kristy who made it to our Hall of Fame two times running! Her olive green liner had us captivated!
We think colour is a really clever way to update a classic look! Why not check out our range of Coloured cream liners or Shimmer eyeliner pencils. Kristy used Elf Waterproof eyeliner in hunter Green.

Marie Louise Clausen: Another second timer! Marie won us over again with her perfectly lined eyes and splash of bright colour against her gorgeous ocean blue eyes! Who says Blue and Green should never be seen? We say break the mould! and rightly so!

Mona Šćasni: We liked this photo because Mona was not afraid to extend the liner and elongate the eyes with a longer flick! it really opens up the shape of her eyes, this is a really good trick for people with narrow set eyes as the extended corners give off the illusion of wider set eyes! :)

Taylor Tunno: WHOOT WHIU! *thats us Whistling*  what a sexy look Taylor has managed to achieve with full, flirtatious lashes and cleverly lined eyes! Starting off thin at the inner corner and gradually building in depth at the outer corners! VERY Angelina Jolie like don't you think!?

Ira Sanja: Again great definition and simplistic look. We love the defined brows, long and curled lashes for a wide eye look.

Well that's the round up guys! Hope you enjoyed it! Please check back later for the reveal of the third Challenge!

Love
