Makeup Fridays

 

*Blogged by Maria*

Hey everyone! Before I start into the tutorial, I want to say a big “get well soon” to Kiki who has badly hurt her leg. Pop over to her twitter and give her encouraging messages here .

And another thing, I now post little non-makeup videos over at my Bourjoisxx channel and I’m trying something new so go check it out and tell me what you think.

Today’s Makeup Tutorial will be the MTV Movie Awards 2010. I loved this look makeup wise. It must have been so warm in the middle of summer in L.A. and this fresh and minimal look was perfect and went very well with the black and gold of her dress. For the fashion break down, click here.

FACE

Usual drill for the face. I applied my foundation with a brush for better coverage and powder to reduce shine. Then using a medium brown (not applying too much) i highlighted my cheekbones.

 

EYES

Starting with eyebrows, i brush them out and add a natural colour but not too much colour. Just add colour where it’s needed on your brows. Then apply a clear mascara to the brows to keep them in place.

Next apply a primer potion and apply the colour "Chopper" to the eyelid with a fluffy brush. extend the colour only slightly past the crease. Apply to to the lower lid also in a thin – medium line. Next apply a medium brown colour to the eyelid only. Don’t make it too strong. Next apply the cream liner with a thin liner brush. Apply it in a medium – thick line and draw a  small flick at the end. then using the pencil liner, apply it lightly to the lower lid. Then smudge the top of the cream liner slightly. Next apply mascara and you’re done.

LIPS

For lips, just add clear or natural gloss, or lipstick .
