This is a dramatic, sexy, luminous look that you can easily recreate. I like to start with the eyes, as they set off the look, and as an awesome makeup artist tip, if you start with the eyes, it’s much easier to clean up any excess shadow that’s fallen on your face before you apply your foundation!
EYES:
1) Firstly apply Morgan Annie Eye Primer and allow this to become tacky. (This takes about 1-2 seconds).
2) Apply Morgan Annie Glow to lower lid blending upwards towards brow bone.
3) Apply Morgan Annie Taupe eye shadow on the outer third of eye and blend in towards inner eye.
If you want more depth, apply more layers gradually, dabbing then blending as you go..
4) Use the Morgan Annie Black eyeliner pencil on bottom and top lids and set the pencil with Smokey Black or Earth Eye Shadow for a softer look.
EYEBROWS:
Your eyebrows frame your face and complete your look. I love using eye shadow to fill in the brows, it creates a soft, defined look. I use Taupe for fair skin, and Earth for dark tones.
After you’ve completed your eyes and brows, chances are you’ve got a mess of fallen eye shadow on your face!
I learnt a great tip from Rae Morris: use Huggies nappy wipes (the green packet) to clean up any fall out you have on your face and around your eyes. They are gentle and have no fragrance.
FACE:
We’re going for a luminous, glowing, translucent look, so begin with Morgan Annie all natural Primer. 1-2 pumps are that are needed.
This takes 2-3 seconds to dry.
Then apply Morgan Annie Glow above the cheek, up and around to the brow bone. This highlights the areas on your face where light hits, and creates that luminous glow.
Finish off your base by applying the Morgan Annie foundation that best matches your skin tone, for sheer coverage 1-2 layers and for full coverage 3-4 layers.
BLUSH:
I have used Warm Bronze. Use the puffer to dab the blush in your face, and carefully blend it as you go.
LIPS:
The lips are the hero in this look, and we are going for a dramatic, sensuous, statement lip!!
Passion Red is THE colour! You can use the Plum Lip pencil or the Pink Mahogany lip pencil to line your lips before applying lipstick.
EYES:
Finish off your smokey, sexy, sensuous look with a few coats of mascara. The Morgan Annie all natural Mineral Mascara is just perfect for this, conditioning, and thickening your lashes, and adding length and definition. Prime your lashes first doing 1-2 coats using the white end of the mascara. When it’s dry apply your mascara.
