Make Up Fridays

Bonjour! Another Friday *scratches head* where has the time gone?. I am so excited with all of Kristens Elle and Flaunt shoots i can't wait to see the ladies of Eclipse in Vanity Fair! Eclipse promo is just around the corner i can practically taste it just think of the steeze ...... i love it, bring it! Plus Vanity Fair always has classy shoots it will be a nice contrast with the edgy Flaunt magazine look and the two Elle looks, what do you guys think?

The look this week is from the VMAs 2009, do you remember that one? Yes the one where Kristen looked like a porcelin doll? *Sigh* that skin makes me green with envy, i really do think she looked stunning here the whole look was more feminine and lighter than she usually goes for. She has a beautiful face and i was in love with her eye make up here.

As usual i am going to say thank you to @kstewmakeup because she takes her time to perfect these videos for you (pssst and me). I'd also like to thank her for her hard work and uber sweetness all the time, i hope she's not sick of me yet. Have you checked out her new blog? If not check it here http://emmawatsonfashion.blogspot.com/ if you are a fan of Miss Watson and her fashion.

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

Face
Apply primer on your face and forehead, paying special attention to your cheek bones, nose and chin. The apply a light layer of foundation to you face, forehead and neck. Make sure to blend well as to get rid of any lines. Then apply a highlighter to your cheekbones, nose and chin. Then apply powder.

Eye
First, apply a primer to the eyelid only and underneath the eye. Next apply a base colour (which should match your skin tone) to the entire eye. Then using a thin brush, wipe the bristles with a facial wipe to mould the hairs into a thin line. You do not need to do this if you already have a thin, angled brush. Apply a burgundy colour to the lash line only. Gradually build up the colour and smudge the colour outwards. Next apply eyeliner to the lash line. Smudge if the line is too harsh and go over any mistakes you’ve made in the eyeliner with the eye shadow. Next brush out your brows and fill them in with a colour of your choice. Make sure they look natural, thin and defined; just like Kristen’s. Next apply mascara and you’re done with your eyes.

Lips
For lip colour, you will need a clear or sheer/light pink gloss. You can also use a pale pink lipstick and go over it with gloss. Before you do this you can put some of Benefit’s Lip Pump on your lips. This is meant to plump out your lips but it is better used as a lip primer than anything else.

Hope you enjoyed it!
