Makeup Profile: Flirty Fuscia
GET THE LOOK:
Cleanse, tone and moisturize.
Use primer all over to ensure long lasting makeup.
Use concealer to lighten the under eye area and cover imperfections.
Use a liquid foundation to even out your skin tone.
Set with powder.
Apply eye primer followed by a matte base colour to the entire eyelid.
Apply a matte ivory powder shadow to the eye lid and brow bone.
Apply a matte neutral brown shadow in the crease. Blend away harsh lines.
Using a black liquid or cream liner, create a tapered line along the top lashes. As you get further out, make the liner thicker. When you get to the end, create a tail with a tapered edge.
Line the outer one-third of the bottom lashline and waterline.
Curl lashes and add 2 coats of black mascara to top and bottom lashes.
String brows are a must for this look. Comb eyebrows in place and line with a brow pencil or shadow.
Apply a rosy pink blush to the apples of the cheeks.
Carefully line lips with a fuscia lip pencil. Fill in completely.
Apply fuscia lipstick. Blot and reapply to complete the look.
