Make Up Fridays

Welcome to today's Make Up Friday! Today @kstewemmakeup will be showing you how to recreate Kristen's David Letterman look from June 2010. There is nothing to report apart from the wonderful Amy Adams and Viggo Mortensen joining the 'On the Road' casting. The cast for this movie is so impressive, i can not wait to see it brought to life. For now i hope everyone has a wonderful weekend, check back Monday for another 'who wore it better?' post.

It’s important to remember that the colours I’ve used are lighter than the colours used on Kristen as they are the best I could get. However, the same basic steps apply.

FACE
Apply foundation in a semi-thick layer. Make sure it gives you good coverage. To help with this use a foundation brush. Apply foundation from your forehead to your jaw making sure to blend here very well. Then apply powder in a light layer. Add a highlighting formula to your cheek bones if you do not own the Avno foundation I have used. Your face must have a glow to it. Then apply a light coloured bronzer to your temples, cheekbones and jaw line. Make sure it’s a light layer. Make it subtle.


EYES
After applying the usual primer, apply a teal coloured eye liner in a thick line to your lash line. Then taking a thin brush, blend and smudge the colour upwards. Then taking the thin brish again, apply the lightest shade of teal to your eye lid only. Then using the same brush take a medium shade of teal to outline the sockets. Then taking the darkest teal apply and blend the colours with a fluffy blending brush. Then apply mascara and you’re done with your eyes.


LIPS
Put a bit of foundation on your lips as a base, then apply a natural nude colour of lip gloss. Or a nude lipstick and add clear gloss to make it shine.
