Red Carpet Premiere of ''One Day '' . Client Gabriella Ellis


For this look, I went for a light grey base all over the lids , then defined Gabriellas crease with a purple shadow which i blended upwards towards the brow.
 I then used a glittery black Eyeshadow into the outer corner of the eye and blended inwards into the purple.
 The key to this look is beautiful colours softly blended together so a blending brush is a must!!

 For the bottom of the eyes i lined them with the same purple eyeshadow using an angled brush then using a smaller angled brush went on top with black. This gave me a multidimensional look and the purple framed her eyes beautifully.
 I applied a 60's style eyeliner gel on the lids and finished with my favourite falsies by Mac !

The base was kept clean with minimal blusher for two reasons: fistrly because Gabriella was very tanned on the day and also because i wanted a really strong lip colour.

 I achieved the lip colour with a combination of Rebel and Violetta both by Mac (thin layer of Rebel used all over lips and then Violetta applied with a lip brush) .

If you have just had a spray tan (our favoutite is Vitta Liberata- natural,even,odorless- just amazing!!!) or even if you have a natural dark tan avoid contouring the face or using bronzer if you are doing a heavy eye or lip. Let the tan speak for itself and even it out by highlighting under the eyes (i love the Mac NW25 studio fix concealer) and using soft pinks on the cheeks.

Love and Hugs
