I had a shoot cancel final minute and chose to pop by my ally’s house instead! As I had all my kit with me, Carolina questioned me whether I would do a make-over on her.
Carolina normally wears black and silver when she goes out at night, but she wanted something different.
I chose to go with something equally as glam as her black and silvers, but a bit more sophisticated and warmer. Carolina is lost out on her summer in Peru, so I went with something that would warm her complexion and make her skin see sunkissed!
What I used (combination of my products and Carolina’s so she could do it at residence too) :
1. Clinique tinted moisturiser
2. Benefit Boi-ing concealer
3. Shimmery cream coloured shadow
4. Frosted light brown shadow
5. Frosted deep brown shadow
5. Black pencil eyeliner
6. Clinique Mascara
7. MAC Golden Bronzer
8. Beige lipstick and gloss
How I did it:
1.
After Carolina cleansed her faced I applied the Clinique tinted moisturiser. I combined her medium and light tubes of foundation as her skin tone was in between the two.
Where the moisturiser didn’t cover I applied the Boi-ing concealer under her eyes and any blemishes she had (which was virtually none as her skin is perfect!)
See how pleased she is!
Aww that’s better!
2.
Once the base was on, I applied the shimmery shadow in a soft cream colour all over her upper lids from lash line to brow and placed a small in the interior corners of her eyes to brighten them.
See at her! She’s fond it!
3.
Once the light shadow was applied, the frosted beige is applied from the external corners of the eyes 3/4 the way in and brought fair above the crease line for added depth.
I then swept it down along the lower lid from the external corner of the eye to 3/4 way in towards the middle corners of the eye.
See! She’s trying not to laugh. I clearly made a hilarious joke as usual.
4.
After I have blended the light beige shadow, I then applied the deep brown shadow interior the creases of the eyes and along the lash line to make a soft smokey eye. I then swept the deep brown along the lower lashes to end off the smokey eye see.
5.
After all the shadows are blended well together and evenly I applied the black liner along the upper and lower lash lines, being certain to blend them with a flat liner brush to make a soft end that deepens the smokey eye see.
Then I applied the Clinique mascara on the upper and lower eyelashes.
She’s fond it now!
6.
I then filled in her brows with a angled brow brush and a mix of two brow shadows. The brown brow shadow I had was too warm for her hair colour so I had to mix it with a brown/black shadow to get the right end!
I like excellent brows! I say it all the time! The face doesn’t see finished until the brows are filled in!!
**Don’t be worried to mix colours and experiment. It can be impossible to buy the exact colours all the time. Make do with what you have and mix and match to get the colours you need! I do it all the time…maximum of the time really!
Ohhh it’s starting to come together now!
7.
In a circular motion I applied the MAC Golden Bronzer to the apple’s of Carolina’s cheeks, a bit to her chin and upon request…I made her nose seem slimmer by contouring along the external of her nose and then adding a bit of shimmer powder along the ridge of her nose.
Best to abandon contouring for the evenings as it can be fairly noticeable during the day. Whether your nose is wide, shade with a powder a tone or two darker than your natural colour to make it seem smaller and a lighter colour along the ridge. Whether your nose is prominent and you want it to seem smaller, shade along the ridge.
But don’t go over the summit! You want to see human, not like a model!
8.
I then applied Carolina’s neutral lipstick and gloss to end the see! I allowed her to place her fringe back as soon as I finished! Her hair drying and curling brush was out in a flash!
See at her! She likes it!
THE CONCLUSION!
