STEP BY STEP GUIDE

Step to step guide for my final makeup look 

1.) Cleanse, tone and moisturise the face. Using Aveeno moisturiser to suit the dry skin type.

2.) Apply satin primer to the whole face and leave for a minute before applying foundation.

3.) Mix Illamasqua skin base foundation, 2 parts 01 and 1 part 08.

4.) Apply using a damp sponge to whole of face, don't use a brush.

5.) Only use patting motions all over the face, don't swipe the sponge or make circular motions as this will rub the foundation off.

6.) Keep building up the coverage until all of the redness is covered and the face looks flawless.

7.) Apply illamasqua skin base lift in corners and across eyelids and under the eye and cupids bow. Blend with sponge (patting motions)

8.) Set under eyes using loose powder and powder puff and then apply contour with a mixture of colours Glamour Tan and Bronzing Summer from the powder contour kit to the cheekbones and forehead.

9.) Apply colour pale tan to the upper cheeks and then use Revolution highlighter on top. Also use on the bridge of the nose.

10.) Apply illamasqua pink blush to the centre of cheeks in circular motions making sure it meets with the contour.

11.) Apply kryolan aqua colour to eyebrows using a spooley brushing upwards to create a bushy eyebrow effect, covering completely in product.

12.) Apply MAC cosy grey eyeshadow to the crease of the eye, dark enough for the pearls to stand out later on. Use a fluffy brush making sure they are completely blending.

13.) Apply illamasqua liquid metals in gold to inner corner of eyes and cupids bow

14.) Apply mascara making the eyelashes really black and quite clumped.

15.) Apply rimmel purple liner in middle of lips and blend outwards making the lips slightly over lined and the cupids bow more prominent.

16.) Apply sleek lipstick on top of lip liner and blend outwards, then use concealer on the corner of the lips and blend inwards.

17.) Apply pearls using eyelash glue to stick them onto the skin, just slightly above the crease going downwards like in the picture. Do not make the pearls too arched or round.
