FACE |
|
|
| Foundation /
Concealer
|
Start with clean, exfoliated skin. After allowing moisturizer to soak in, apply concealer to the inner corners of the eyes and underneath to cover dark circles. Apply a small amount of concealer to the eyelid as an eyeshadow base.
Use a light foundation shade as close to your natural skin tone as possible. Lightly apply only to any areas of the face that need coverage. Remember, part of the secret to this look is letting your natural beauty show! Blend well.
|
| Blush |
Use a coral or peach blush that works with your skintone. Warm complexions can use orangey blushes. Cool complexions should stick with pink-based colors.
Apply your blush in the style that best suits your face: round faces look better with blush applied to the apple of the cheek, while narrower faces can take blush on the cheekbone (like Courteney).
Apply blush one thin layer at a time until you have a delicate glow.
|
| EYES |
|
|
| Eyelid |
Apply a pearly ultra-light pink color from the lid to the crease.
|
| Crease |
Apply a small amount of a matte mauve or berry shade in the crease from corner to corner. Blend very well.
|
| Hilite |
Use a matte shade of very light pink or ivory lightly on the browbone. Use just enough to brighten your eyes. Blend very well.
|
| Eyeliner |
Choose a black or charcoal powder liner with a thin damp brush.
Apply a thin line to the top lash line, from corner to corner. Use a light touch and get the color in between the lashes. You can try dotting your way across the lashline and then going back and filling in to create one continuous line.
Repeat all the way around the eye, top and bottom lashes, until your lashline is nicely filled in, without allowing the line to get too heavy.
Now go back to the top lashline. Work your way towards the outer corner and gradually widen the line as you go. This will widen the eyes and give them a lift.
Finally, trace a thin, delicate line around the inner corners of the eyes for a professional look.
|
Brows |
Use a brow wax or powder with a small brush, or a sharp pencil, to shape and fill in. Start by defining the arch of each brow. Step back and look at your entire face in the mirror, and then fill in the rest of the brow as necessary.
|
Lashes |
Curl the upper lashes. Coat upper and lower lashes two or three times with a black, lengthening mascara.
|
LIPS |
|
|
|
To get glass-smooth lips, brush them gently with an old, soft toothbrush. Then apply petroleum jelly and allow it to soak in for 30 or more minutes.
Choose a coral or peach lipliner and a delicate pink lipstick.
Apply one coat of lipstick and blot with tissue, then apply a second coat. Then, line the lips. Next, use a lip brush to blend the area where lipliner and the lipstick meet. Blot with a tissue. Coat with a clear gloss.
