5 steps away:
1. Start by applying the Studio Radiance Serum-Powered Foundation using the #170 brush for a dewy lightweight base.
2. The focus of any mod look is the strong eye, so first prep the eyelids with the Prep+Prime 24 Hour Extend Eye Base to keep everything in place and maintain a clean, bare eyelid.
3. Then use the Eye Kohl in the shade Feline to create a bold smudged crease — you can blink your eyes a few times for an extra dramatic messy look.
4. Build the lashes using the M·A·C Stack Mascara. This look calls for extra clumpy lashes, so the more layers the better — for the show we used 10 to 15 layers to really stack them up!
5. Lastly, use Lipglass Clear to finish off the look with a little bit of sophistication and softness without taking away from the eyes.
