How to Achieve the Look:
- Start by laying down Invisible Eyeshadow Base so your product has grip and staying power.
- Build the eye out with the Groundwork shadow palette sweeping “Core,” a warm brown tone, into the crease.
- Using a flat eye brush, mix a bit of “Sandstone” with “Mirage” and gently press onto the lid as a backdrop shade.
- Using a small pencil-shaped brush, use “Harvest” as a liner and smudge along the upper and lower lash lines. Repeat the same technique, this time going in a little tighter to the lash line and using the shade “Sculpted” for added definition.
- Lightly dust Colorfix Foils “Fantasy” on the center of the lid and blend out toward the inner corner of the eye.
- Gently press a small amount of “Radiant” from the Lightwork Volume V palette on the center of the lid using your finger.
- Using your fingers, add Yummy Skin Blurring Balm Powder to blur any unwanted texture and even the skin tone.
- Apply Yummy Skin Foundation in areas where you need a little more coverage. For that lit-from-within glow, mix Yummy Skin Glow Serum into your foundation.
- Use Balm Contour applied in the shape of the number “3,” starting around the hairline and moving directly under the cheekbones and over the cheeks. Be careful not to go too far past the center of the pupil. Blend upwards, dragging it along the jawlines, and blend down toward the neck.
- Apply Yummy Skin Balm Powder Flushed to the apples of the cheeks and back toward the ear using a stippling motion. Tip: wherever you place your brush first is where the most color will be deposited, so start at the apples and blend outward, as the color will naturally diffuse itself.
- Time To Set: Use Evolution Powder on a puff and press it softly into the skin in areas where you want to control shine and add a bit of a blurring effect. (Center of the forehead, under the eyes, around the bridge of the nose, etc.)
- To create an ombre lip, use the Dewy Cheek & Lip Palette, starting with the deeper color “Top Secret” around the lip line and stop about 1/4 of the way from the lip center. Next, apply “Wallflower” a little bit above where the last line ended, then go in with “Nude-Atude.” Save “Hush Hush” directly for the center of the lip.
- For lashes: starting at the outer corners, place the pre-bonded imPRESS clusters underneath the natural lash line in sections. Apply Super Strong Lash Adhesive, then the Little Black Dress strip across the entire lash line for added dimension and volume.
