How did Brit Cochran created these looks?

Shot 1

Using Kryolan Aquacolor in Black, I freehanded the outlines across the chin and neck with MAC #209 eyeliner brush. Next, I filled in the large shape with Kryolan 032 Red Aquacolor using a small flat shadow brush like MAC #239 eye shader brush . The blue circles were filled in using Tarte, "Unicorn Kisses" Clay Pot Waterproof liner with a Laura Mercier Secret Camouflage brush. The white shapes were also created with Tarte, "White" Clay Pot Waterproof liner with a clean Secret Camouflage brush by Laura Mercier.

Shot 2 & 3

The skin is evened out with a light layer of Tarte Amazon of the Sea foundation. Brows are filled in where sparse with Peripera Speedy Eyebrow Auto Pencil #2. Then, the look begins once again by freehand sketching the black outlines using Kryolan Black Aquacolor and a MAC #209 eyeliner brush. Next, using the Laura Mercier Secret Camouflage brush. I apply the colors in the negative spaces. The colors I used are Kryolan 032 Red , Tarte "Unicorn Kisses" and "White" Clay Pot Waterproof liner. Using a pointed cotton swab dipped into the white Clay Pot liner, I applied 3 dots on to the face.

The base and eyebrow remains the same. I begin again by freehand sketching the black shapes with the Kryolan Black Aquacolor and eyeliner brush. I use the same color and brush to fill in the tear shape under the left eye. Using a Tarte Etch & Sketch Double Ended Bamboo Liner Brush. I fill in the blue circle and negative space on the right with Tarte "Unicorn Kisses" Clay Pot Waterproof liner. Then, I use the Laura Mercier Secret Camouflage brush and paint Kryolan 032 Red Aquacolor above the eyebrow. Lastly, I add the white dots with Tarte "White" Clay Pot Waterproof liner and a pointed cotton swab.

The base and eyebrow remains the same. I once again apply the black lines on the face with the Kryolan Black Aquacolor and eyeliner brush. Using a Tarte Etch & Sketch Double Ended Bamboo Liner Brush I fill in the shapes on the right with Tarte "Unicorn Kisses" and "Mint" Clay Pot Waterproof liner. On the fingers I gesturally draw two lines with Tarteist Clay Paint Liner in Black.

Base and eyebrow continue to be consistent. I start again by freehand the black line using Kryolan Black Aquacolor and MAC #209 eyeliner brush. Using a Tarte Etch & Sketch Double Ended Bamboo Liner Brush, I fill in the negative space with Tarte "Unicorn Kisses" Clay Pot Waterproof liner.
