SUPERHEROES SERIES - BATMAN

I love the Batman films, and after a request what a better way to kick of my second makeup look. My first on was the Hulk. This one was a tricky one, and you will see why!
First off I marker out my line of the wing with a black pencil liner, I used Urban Decay 24/7, but any one will do. Then over the top I used Urban Decay Waterproof Liquid Liner, which has a gloss to it once dried. I then patted on Blackout, a matte black from Urban Decay over the top, filling in most of the shape.
Then with the liquid liner, I emphasized the corner of my eye with a thick pointed line. I then applied the yellow shade from the Sleek Ultra Matte Brights palette over the main area of the lid. With a silver - this is where it went very messy - I blended in the yellow and the black shadow. The shimmer seemed to get everywhere, and didn't seem to stick to the lid. Alas, it still worked and I think it blended in well.
The last few things I did involved liner to top lash line with the liquid liner, and again on the bottom, but not going all the way. With Rimmel's Scandaleyes Liquid Eyeliner I filled in the brow to make it appear more thicker and sharp. I then popped on some lashes!

SUPERHEROES SERIES - THE HULK

To get my creative juices flowing I decided to do a series of make up - as if this is my first time?! Choosing to go as Poison Ivy to London Comic Con this year, I thought that doing a Superheroes series would be perfect!! Also tempted to do Villains along side this series...
So today I have my interpretation of The Hulk! 
I kept everything very simple, the only tip for this look is to blend! I wanted it simple, yet seamless. I used Benefits Brow Zings for the start of the ombre brow, then finished it with the bright purple from the Sleek Ultra Mattes palette. Over the top of that, I applied some clear mascara by 2Tru to give a rugged look.
I then prepped my eye with Urban Decay Primer Potion in Eden to give a perfectly flawless base for my shadows. I used the two greens from my Sleek Palette, and the same purple. I applied the lighter green all over, and then the darker in the crease. I then popped over Urban Decay's Blackout over the crease - use the tiniest bit - just to add a darker shadow. You can use any matte black though!! 
I added the same purple I used for the brow underneath the eye. I added Urban Decay's Rock star in the waterline - a dark purple - and used the purple eye shadow on top, just to give a bit more depth. I also blended it into the green. I then popped on some lashes, and I was complete!

What do you think?! Is it the Hulk?
