'Make-Up' Fridays


I'm finally sitting back and resting, this week has been hectic (just 3 more weeks of this). Question did everyone see the Eclipse trailer from Oprah, what did you think? Personally i felt it was the best trailer we have seen from the saga so far .......... i like David Slades work he has done previously so i'm very excited to see what he's done with this saga (plus this is my favourite book). I may be able to overlook the disgusting engagement ring Stephenie Meyer visioned (yes i get that its vintage blah blah it still doesn't change the fact that its ugly).

Moving on! It's Make-Up Fridays again (where is the time going?) and todays look is the look Kristen wore to the New Moon Madrid premiere. YES you all remember that one with the sex on legs steeze?

I want to say a huge thank you to my bestie @kstewmakeup for all her hard work and sweetness, shes my follow Friday everyweek. Have you checked out her new fashion blog? http://emmawatsonfashion.blogspot.com/ if you are a fan of Miss Watson then head on over and have a look at the steeze, its all kinds of chic and fabulous.

NOTE: For tutorials you do not need the exact make up @Jacksonville25 uses, similar colours from any brand you feel comfortable using will do.

Face
First exfoliate your skin. This is a vitally important step not only for the application of your make up but for your skin in general. Then apply your moisturiser. Wait a while to let it sink into your skin, and apply the primer to your face. Next apply your foundation, powder and bronzer. Don’t apply too much powder, especially if you can’t get a hold of an exfoliator. Too much powder will make your skin look dryer than it actually is. To apply the bronzer, suck in your cheeks to make your cheekbones more apparent and apply the bronzer underneath your cheekbones.

Eyes
After applying the primer to your eyelids top and bottom, apply an eye shadow to both your lids that matches your skin tone. For example, I used a creamy-white colour for my base. Then using a brown colour, (use a light to medium brown if you have light skin and a dark brown if you have dark skin), apply it to the outer corners of your eye, paying special attention to the crease and the lower lid. Don’t apply the brown to the lid itself. If you need too go over your eyelid with the base colour again. Next your need to apply eye liner to the lower waterline only. Apply the eyeliner on your lid but put it very close to the lash line. This liner is barely there, but make sure it makes an impact nonetheless. Next apply your mascara and you’re done!

Hope you enjoyed it!
