I love these pics! This is such a natural look, but in reality the model (my friend Kitty) is wearing quite a bit of make-up. Photographs take away 40% of the make-up applied, so if you are attending an event where you know your photo will be taken I would always a little more than you first thought!
For example; the lipstick I used is a really lovely one by NARS called 'Tzigane', on the hand it comes out quite dark...
For the eyes I used quite a big eyeshadow blending brush to blend three colours (lightest first). I used my Bobbi Brown eyeshadow pallet which includes 'Hot Stone 56', 'Rich Brown 11', 'Bone 2'.
- First use the lightest colour - 'Hot Stone' in my case - all over the eyelid and socket up to the brow
- Use a highlighter for under the brow line - I used a MAC eyeshadow called 'Nylon'
- Next apply the middle colour - 'Bone' - into the eye socket and blend up and out towards the far edge of the eyebrow
- Use the darkest colour along the eyelashes and under the eye in the outer corner.
Hope this is useful, let me know if you need more explanation!
