Charlotte Tilbury Makeup

I have just been reading rave reviews about this new makeup just introduced on the market by the well know makeup artist Charlotte Tilbury, I know its not cheap but with makeup you get what you pay for, being a makeup artist Charlotte knows the importance of being able to apply with ease, so girls that are not very prodicient with applying makeup will find this easy to apply, the colours are the new "IN" colours of muted metallic browns, giving the eyes and lips a lovely autumn glow adding this colour with the new "IN" clothes colour "PINK" makes an ideal match, more about Pink clothes tomorrow and the must have buy for the coming season. The secret to applying good makeup and makeup that will stay looking as it did when you first put it on is two basic steps to start with, firstly apply a Beauty Balm, my favourite is Clarins Beauty flash balm, these two together prepares the skin for your fouundation, when you conceal your beard area make sure you use a concelater a shade lighter than your foundation, you spread the concealer all over the beard area, concentrating on the upper lip which tends to be the darkest, then spread over with a dampened sponge, then apply transluscent pwder to set the concealer in place, if you need to apply another light layer to the top lip repeat the sequence remembering to finish off with the powder, the apply your foundation, now some girls like to use the theatrical paint stick, some girls can get away with liquid foundation, this is trial and error for girls to find out which is the best route to go, if you choose the liquid foundation route I would suggest either No 7 perfect range or Mac these two brands seem to give the best coverage, finish off with transluscent powder, bruch off excess with your blusher brush and you are good to go with applying your makeup. Eyebrows always a difficult situation, especially for girls who are not able to have them waxed or threaded, the way around this is when applying concealer to the beard area apply lightly underneath the eyebrows trying to create an arch shape then powder over this when applying eyebrow pencil follow the shape but dont try to pencil in the whole of the eyebrow remembering you want to create a feminine shape and you dont want a thick musculine look. I hope I have been helpful and will give more tips tomorrow on how to create a feminine shap. Josie x
