REMEMBER TO ALWAYS WASH YOUR HANDS BEFORE TOUCHING SOMEBODY ELSE’S FACE AND ALWAYS KEEP HAND SANITIZER NEAR BY.


Method

1.      Firstly, I mixed some of the white foundation with the primer to give it a better coverage and to thin it out.  I then applied this to the face with a foundation brush, taking extra care to make it even across the skin.

2.      Next, I used a blending brush to buff the foundation into the skin, which gives a great finish.  I also made sure I went over the lips to give an extra pale look.

3.      Then I scraped some bronzer out of the palette onto my hand.  Using the same brush, I applied it to the apples of the cheeks in a small, round, circular motion.  This gave a nice warm glow.

4.      I then applied loose translucent powder all over the face using a powder brush making sure then end result was smooth and not sticky.


5.      Next, I scraped some bronzer out of the palette onto my hand and then using the rounded eyeshadow brush I slowly blended the colour onto the eyelids creating a nice round shape.


6.      Lastly, using a spatula, I scraped some peachy lipstick out of the lip palette and put it on the back of my hand.  I then used the lip brush to apply the product all over the lips ensuring I stayed within the natural line.

Below is my creation of this look
            I really enjoyed creating this look as my models skin was perfect for this look, the foundation blended in nicely which I was pleased about.  I feel I blended the eyeshadow to suit my models eye shape.  If I was to do this look again I would look into investing a lip liner of a similar colour so I can get the lips sharp and neat.
