Beautiful Bouquet

  • For this look, once again start with a neutral eye shadow for your lids. Use a highlighter, or a slightly shimmery colour under your brow.
  • Use a goldenrod yellow on your eyes, applying it just up to the creases. Blend some below your eyes.
  • Take a black eyeliner and outline your upper lid, starting from the corners, for a lovely almond shape. End with a flick at the ends, for a dash of drama. Avoid lining your lower lids in black; instead, use a white liner on the insides, which will make your eyes look bigger.
  • Finish with thick mascara on your upper and lower lashes.
  • Try to use an orange-ish blush, or even a light bronzer. Apply it just below the apple of your cheeks and with broad strokes, blend up to the temples.
  • A pearly, coral hued lipstick is ideal. Try applying Clarins sheer lip gloss in Crystal over it for some sheen. Or just go for a peachy gloss.

We recommend: Elizabeth Arden black eye defining liquid liner, Nina Ricci plush eye shadow duo shade no. 10, Chambor trio eye shadow in Dazzling Waves, Shiseido sheer gloss in Nuance Beige.
