Instructions
1. Moisture your skin with Kiehl’s Since 1851 Ultra Facial Cream.
2. Prime your face with Smashbox Photo Finish Reduce Redness Primer. Focus special attention on any areas that seem inflamed and extra red.
3. Apply Mac Pro Longwear Paint Pot all over your upper lid and brow bone with a flat eye shadow brush or a concealer brush. Our model used the shade “Soft Ochre,” but you should choose the one that best matches your skin tone.
4. Apply the color “Mary” from Morphe’s The James Charles Palette on the outer corner of your eye and into the crease using a round shadow brush. Add color a little at a time, blending well as you go.
5. Add the color “Boutique” from Morphe’s The James Charles Palette to the outer and inner corners of your eye with a round shadow brush. Connect the two corners by adding a little of the color to the crease.
6. Add the color “Benny” from Morphe’s The James Charles Palette to the outer corner of your eye along the lash line and to the very inner corner of the top lid.
7. Use your finger to dab on a little Loreal 24 Hour Infallible Eyeshadow in “Amber Rush” on the middle section of your eyelid. This will create dimension and depth.
8. Layer on your favorite mascara to your upper lashes. Our model used Too Faced Damn Girl Mascara. Add false lashes for an especially dramatic eye look.
9. Apply L’Oreal Infallible 24 Hour Freshwear Foundation in the shade that best matches your skin. Use a makeup sponge to blend it in evenly.
10. With Tarte Double Duty Shape Tape Contour Concealer, draw a couple of lines of each shade under your eyes, and use a makeup sponge to blend it in.
11. Create contour by adding a darker tone along your hairline, under your cheekbone and along your jawline. Blend it thoroughly with a makeup sponge.
12. Dip the pointed end of your makeup sponge in Kylie Cosmetics Translucent Setting Powder, and tap off the excess. Push the remaining powder into the skin under your eye.
13. Sweep on a little Fenty Beauty Sun Stalk’r Instant Warmth Bronzer in “Private Island” over the cream contour you previously used. A blush brush or a simple round powder brush will work well.
14. Use an eyebrow brush to apply a layer of NYX Tame & Frame Tinted Brow Pomade to your eyebrows. Then, use an angled brush to fill in and define your brows.
15. Pick one of your eye shades and use a smudge brush to apply it to your lower lid, just below the lashes.
16. Apply another layer of Too Faced Damn Girl Mascara to your lower lashes.
17. Use another round powder brush to gently sweep on PUR Cosmetics Blush in “Honest” over the top of your cheeks.
18. Spray on a layer of Morphe Continuous Setting Spray to fix your look for all day or night.
19. Use a small blush or powder brush to add Anastasia Beverly Hills x AMREXY Highlight to the edges of the contour on your cheek.
