When
applying makeup for a special event, most of us these days tend to
think of our favorite
red carpet looks ...Not to say that we can't be creative individuals,
but these
days there is so much style inspiration coming from celebrities.
Perhaps its this
new era of celebrity and fashion tied together. Entertainment
stars
constantly adorn the covers of the big fashion magazines ...and models,
usually über
models, have become celebrities. They have cosmetic
contracts, fashion or accessory lines or even their own perfume
brand...Angelina,
Gwyneth, Gwen, Demi, Eva...
The, once distinct, worlds of Hollywood and The Fashion Industry have
collided creating a chic that can be described as glamourous with an
edge.
Fashionable 'JET SET' collides with Hollywood Glamour to create a foolproof style choice for
nights out, events or for whenever you want a gorgeous attention
winning style.
The
trick
to professional looking smoky eye makeup really comes down to effective
color layering and smudging of shadows, liners etcetera to create a
sexy dramatic eye.
A
darker palette of colors; ex. plums, grays, blacks will create more
intensity, and conversely, a lighter palette of colors; ex. beige,
golds, browns will create a softer definition of the eyes.
Glamour element: Use satin shadows in powder or cream, highlight the
inner corner of your eye and outer brow with a little metallic sparkle
and use black mascara.
Applying
Makeup Radiant Skin
Radiant
skin is flawless, fresh, and alive with natural looking color;
-sweep of natural looking bronzer across nose, cheeks and a touch on
the forehead, chin, under the chin (Guerlain's Terracotta
Bronzer is famous for its natural looking finish)
-natural looking shade of blush on the apples of you cheeks (some blend
of pink, peach and coral with emphasis on one of those colors depending
on your skin tone)
Glamour element: Add soft shimmer to highlight cheeks, eyes, and
décolletage (a multipurpose stick like the one by NARS, is a great tool
for this).
Applying
Makeup Glossy Natural Lips
Lips
are lower key than the eyes, but well defined and dressed up with a
spicy- brown pencil (MAC has great lip pencils for this in Spice or
Oak) and filled with a natural tone dewy lipstick or gloss (or both) in
a pinky- mauve- brown...something earthy that takes your lips and
replicates their color without being too dark or unnatural in color.
Glamour element: Consider A Lip Plumper and Gloss by Lip Fusion or Du
Wop Lip Venom. Finish over lipstick with a sheer gloss with a little
shimmer.
One
more thing,take the time to get on a regimen of teeth whitening...this
alone can
bring high impact results to your appearance. There all types
of systems to
choose from depending on your sense of convenience and budget; GoSmile
Teeth Whitening Systems,
Lab
Direct teeth whitening
and Dr. Katz are all
different but effective systems to consider.
