For this month’s make up look we decided on a touch of glam and a pop of colour, embracing a simple yet effective glam look for the upcoming spring season.
Step 1: Apply Primer
Apply HD Micro Primer to minimise visible pores and fine lines, giving the skin a smooth, flawless finish. Follow with the Eyeshadow Primer over and around the eyes to enhance the colour intensity of the eyeshadows. This also helps avoid the dreaded raccoon eye look from migrating eye products.
Step 2: Define the Brows
While the primer sets, start with the brows. Use the Eye Shadow Variety 18 Colours Palette in shade “Deep Black” to define and shape the brows. Start from the ends and work towards the front for a more natural, gradient effect.
Step 3: Create the Eye Look
Eyeshadow Application: 1. Using the Eye Shadow Variety 18 Colours Palette (V6), apply warm shades to the eyelid and crease to add depth and warmth without overpowering the look.
- Liner Application: Use HD Cream Liner in “Ebony” for a dramatic, clean line. For precision, place micro pore tape along the lash line as a guide.
- Green Liner: Mix Polyester Glimmer Fine in “Pastel Green” with Mixing Medium to create a vibrant green liner. Apply this for a pop of colour on the upper or lower lash line.
- Inner Eye Accent: With Eye Shadow Variety 18 Colours (V2), add a pop of green to the inner corners of the eyes, complementing the green liner.
- Add Glitter: Apply Glamour Sparks in “Copper” on the eyelid and Glamour Sparks in “Green” on the inner corners for a soft, elegant shimmer.
- Mascara: Finish the eyes with Supreme Volume Mascara to add volume and length.
Step 4: Apply Foundation
We chose our model’s foundation based on her skin type. Dermacolour Camouflage Creme in “DELO1” was selected as the foundation. This product provides full coverage and corrects any discolourations. It’s ideal for creating a uniform, flawless base.
Step 5: Contouring
Contour the face using Dermacolour Camouflage Crème in “D12” to add warmth and enhance facial features. Step 6: Set the foundation with Dermacolour Fixing Powder in “P4/5” to ensure longevity and durability in various weather conditions.
Step 7: Apply blush for a warm, earthy tone, use Eye Shadow Matt in shade “Macca” on the cheeks. This shade adds a subtle colour that enhances the overall look without overpowering it.
Step 8: Highlight
Highlight the cheekbones and bridge of the nose using a combination of Shimmering Event Foundation in “Golden Beige” & “Pearl” applied in a stippling motion for a luminous glow. Set and enhance the highlight with Glamour Glow in “Natural Tan”.
Step 9: Define the Lips
Line and fill the lips with Gel Lipliner in “Dusted Mauve” for a natural yet striking lip colour. This liner is durable, smudge-proof, and waterproof.
Step 10: Set the Makeup
Finish the look with Fixing Spray 75ml to create an invisible, protective film that prolongs the life and durability of the makeup. In Just Ten Simple Steps: Using these versatile products, you can create a soft glam look that adds a vibrant pop of colour, perfect for spring.
