INGREDIENTS
- Lavender-gray glitter
- Liquid foundation
- Translucent loose powder
- Bright pink blush
- Fuchsia pink lipstick
- Pink-tinted or clear lip gloss
- Pink lip liner
- Black and lavender eye shadows
- Black liquid eyeliner
- Black pencil liner
- Black mascara
- False eyelashes
Clean and moisturize your face with lotion. Apply liquid foundation with a wedge sponge all over your face, including areas around the eyes and eyelids. Concealer under eyes if needed. Top it off with a light layer of loose translucent powder. Apply hot pink blush to the apples of your cheeks, but don’t go overboard. Just a light touch will do. Apply a generous amount of powder under eyes with a large brush to catch any falling glitter/eyeshadow (to be brushed off later)
Dark, dramatic eyes are the focal point of this look. Apply at least 3 layers of black mascara to lower and upper lashes. Do miss Love proud, make it clumpy and thick! I used liquid black liner right on top of the lashline and thinly in inner corners. The last step is optional: you can use black pencil on the waterline or leave them blank for a more open-eyed, ‘doll-like’ look.
With a large brush, generously apply lavender eyeshadow all over the top lid and slightly over the crease as well as under the lower lashes. Darken the crease and outer corners with black eyeshadow, blending well. Go over with lavender again if necessary.
Now let’s make it sparkle! I used a pale silvery-lavender glitter. Dab on some lotion on the upper lid barely touching the crease, focusing on inner corners. While the surface is still wet, apply loose glitter with a medium sized brush, pressing down firmly. The brighter the inner corner, the more your eyes will stand out.
I decided to have a little fun with eyebrows here. :) With a black pencil I created a squiggly shape around my left eye and gave the other one a more natural shape. Brush away the glitter mess from under your eyes with a large brush. Apply fake eyelashes as close to the lash line as possible on top lids only.
Using pink lip liner, draw heart-shaped contour on upper lip; do lower lip as usual. Fill in with hot pink lipstick and clear or light pink gloss on top. Voila!
