Beaute-ful Holiday Looks No. 5

Happy New Year to all of you!!!

Here's our 5th and final look for this holiday season. Begin the new year with a new look that will make jaws drop!

Our Beaute Speciale Artist, Rosie Torres, has created a look that will make you look amazing.


Here's how to achieve this look:

EYES:
1.  Use a base which is MAC untitled paint all over the lid up to the brow.
2.  Then use MAC Print eyeshadow in the crease using the blending brush 224 in a back and forth motion and then in circles at the edge of the eye.
3.  Use a smolder as a liner and then smudge up to the crease.
4.  Pack on MAC blacktied eyeshadow on the lid.
5.  Line the eyes with MAC blacktrack fluid liner with a 266 brush.
6.  Use a black eyeliner for the inner rim of the eyes to make it really smokey.
7.  Use MAC Shroom eyeshadow with a little of nylon right under the brow and in the inner part of the eye for the highlight.

Tip:  When applying makeup, I always start with the eyes first, especially when doing a smokey eyes because the eye shadow flakes everywhere and makes a mess.  You can use a wipe or Q-tip for clean up. I then do the concealer and foundation.

CHEEK:
1.  MAC Tenderling and a little bronzer around the hairline and jawline.

BROWS:
Don't forget to add some color to your brows or you will look washed out.  The 266 and a matte eyeshadow that matches your hair will be perfect.  Just follow the shape and use light strokes.

LASHES:
Time for mascara... Zoom Lash from MAC is great for a dramatic look and of course number 7's fake eyelashes are great as a finishing touch for your lashes.

LIPS:
If you are looking for red, red lips, use a Russian Red Matte lipstick.  It stays on and looks amazing.  But if you want red without being too much, try Chanel... they always have bold, but softer shades.
