GIMP Tutorial: Stardoll Makeup

You will need

Lets start with the eyes

1. Make a layer
Its SO important to make layers.If you don't have a layer box, hold down Ctrl and L at the same time.
2. Pick a colour, try dodge black because we need that later.
3. Apply it like you would apply eyeshadow with a fuzzy brush
4. Now click on the layer you used to apply eyeshadow and select "Mode: Overlay" and it will look like eyeshadow.
5. Now make another layer, and pick black (or another colour) and make the brush slightly smaller
6. Now apply like eyeliner. [TIP: For liquid liner use a circle brush, but for pencil use fuzzy brush and then gaussiaun blur to as much as you like]
7. Make new layer (optional)
8. Pick and eyelash brush, notice that it is WAY too big, you have to scale it to make it the perfect size.

Now the blush.

1. Make a layer
2. Pick red/pink/brown ect. and apply in circle on cheeks with fuzzy brush
3. Gaussiaun Blur pretty high (Best results are at a blur scale between 75-125)
4. Erase anywhere you don't want it to be.

Finally the lips
1. Using the path tool or the lasso/free select tool, select just the top lip
2. Pick a colour you want for the lips. I like how red turns out.
3. Now, paint it into the selection
4. Select the bottom lip and paint the same colour in.
5. Click "Select" and click "None"
6. Now click your layer, and click "Mode: Overlay"

Now merge down all your layers into your pasted layer and look at what you done!!!
