BASE
Apply primer all over your face
#faithtip: use a powder brush to apply baby powder all over your face
Your face will look ashy after this step, but applying foundation/tinted moisturiser will fix this
Blend it in with a damp beauty blender
#faithtip: dampen your beauty blender with setting spray for easier blending and a longer lasting base
After blending in your foundation/tinted moisturiser, apply a concealer that is only slightly lighter than your skin tone to the inner corner of your under-eye
Place concealer to the end of your under-eyes following the shape of your eyes
Blend it in well with a beauty blender
Take a powder brush and some pressed powder and apply all over your face
Now, apply setting powder to your under eyes following your eye shape.
Place a line of setting powder under your cheeks
Let the setting powder sit whilst you focus on another part of your face
EYEBROWS
Eyebrows play a very vital role in this look, they help your eyes stand out more
This step will be easier if your brows have a defined shape
Brush through your eyebrows with brow gel
Use a brow brush dipped in pomade, to draw a line at the bottom of your brow starting from the front of your brow to the end
Draw a similar line at the top of your brows
Fill in the space (don't fill in the very front of your brows to create an almost ombre effect)
Apply eyebrow gel on top
Then use a small brush to apply concealer underneath your eyebrows
Blend well with a beauty blender
Apply setting powder to under your brow
LASHES
Lashes are the main event for this look
Select thick and long lashes/ lash clusters that suit your eye shape
#faithtip D-Curl lashes are your best friend
STRIP LASHES
But for this step apply glue to strip lashes
Wave the lashes around for a bit so the glue dries a tiny bit and feels a little bit sticky
Place them on the lash line and adjust where needed (using tweezers or fingers)
CLUSTER LASHES
Strip lashes can also be cut into smaller pieces or use cluster lashes
Dip them into glue and wipe off the excess
Use tweezers to hold the lashes
Pull the top of your eyelid upwards so you can see underneath your eyelashes
#faithtip Wipe the glue on the part you are applying to then you can dip the lash in glue again before actually placing it underneath your lash
This make the lashes more firm and secure
Make sure it is not too close to your eye as this can be irritating
Fan your eyes if you can still feel wet glue
BACK TO BASE
Brush the setting powder away with a powder brush
You will need to make sure you do this properly because the powder won't move easily, because of how long it has sat there
Apply highlighter to the tip of your nose, your brow bone and your cupid's bow
Make sure to keep the highlight application light and smooth it out, so as to not look ashy and to keep the focus on your eyes and lips
Spray setting spray all over your face
LIPS
Use a brown lip liner, slightly darker than/ similar to your skin tone, to outline your lips
Apply pink lip gloss to your lips
Then top it all off with clear lip gloss.
