Return of the Look: Gryffindor (Harry Potter)

"You might belong in Gryffindor,
Where dwell the brave at heart,
Their daring, nerve and chivalry
    Set Gryffindors apart
" -Sorting Hat

After Ravenclaw, Gryffindor would be my next pick for a house at Hogwarts. Gryffindor is the most memorable house because most of the characters from Harry Potter that we came to know and love were from this house. I personally love the Weasley family (Weasley twins FTW!) so I have to love Gryffindor! By the way, for those of you who are not familiar with my "Return of the Look" series, it is a series where I redo looks I did in the past. Well, this is a redo of my Gryffindor look that I did a while ago.


Keep reading more for a pictorial!

1. On a primed lid, trace a line above the crease with a red eyeshadow.

3. With the same brush and dark brown, connect the crease line to the lash line.


4. With a flat brush, apply a bright gold on the entire lid, as well as the inner corner.



5. Take the same red eyeshadow and apply some more above the brown on the crease. Blend it into the brown.








6. Line the waterline with a black eyeliner.

7. Line the lower lash line with the dark brown.

8. With a smudger brush, smudge the lower lash line with the red eyeshadow, blending it into the brown.


9. Apply mascara and lashes.
