Emma Watson Trésor Make-Up Tutorial

Seems like every fashion magazine I've been flipping through, I keep seeing the same but oh-so-glamorous Emma Watson editorial for Lancôme's Trésor perfume.


Emma's look is simple yet pretty.

Here's my version...

So we can ease up on the redundancy, the first thing you want to do it prep your face and eyes using a face primer and an eye primer.

Here I used the Sheer Cover Base Perfector for the face and E.L.F Eye Shadow Primer for the eyes.
Then you want to use your favorite foundation  and concealer to cover any blemishes.


1.) Fill in the eye brows with a color a shade darker than your original hair color.


 
2.) Apply a light shimmery purple to the inner tear duct area. This will add light to the eye and make them appear brighter.


3.) Apply a darker shimmery purple to all over the lid.


4.) Take a medium purple color and swipe it along the lower lash line.


5.) Line your upper lash line and water line with a black/kohl eyeliner.





6.) With a deeper purple, smudge out the black on the upper lash line. I used MAC's Blu-Noir.



7.) Add your favorite mascara.



8.) After conditioning the lips with your favorite chap stick, apply a plum-y lip color.


9.) This part is completely optional. Add a pinky cream color blush to the back of the cheeks and add a bit of illuminator on the apples of the cheeks just to give the face more dimension.



You're all done!

This look is AMAZING for brown and green eyes!

Purple Smokey Eye: Adele's Instyle Magazine Article

Adele has graced the scene with her beautiful voice and charming looks. Her interview with the April issue of Instyle magazine was nothing less than perfection. Adeles beauty will be the talk of the century.



Here's my version..

1.) Prime your whole eye with NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in Milk. This will make whatever color you put on your lid, pop.


2.) With a medium purple color, take an angled liner brush and trace a line going from a cetemeter above your tear duct and extend it out past your lash line; through the crease.

3.) Take a dark purple and smudge it over the line you created with the medium purple.

4.) With a blending brush, blend the color up toward your brow bone.


5.) Take a light purple; add this color to your brown bone and tear duct area.

6.) Remember the color you drew the line in your crease with? Take that color and put it all over the lid. Then, go in with a color a bit darker and blend it over the color you just added.

7.) Go back to the NYX Eye Pencil and line the water line.


8.) With the same dark purple used from before, smudge this on your lower lash line. Then, go back in with a black and smudge it in the with dark purple.


9.) With a sapphire blue gel liner, line your upper lash line and make a small wing.
