Woman This Month - May 2012

55 woman this month | May 2012 | Look One For the first look we went for girly, floral garment choices. The Stradivarius dress is gathered at the waist and has a tiered asymmetric hem, making it slightly quirkier than your usual floral sun-dresses. We paired it with a cool mint-green blazer from Zara and Stradivarius accessories. Makeup How To: Rachida from Inglot created a strong, colourful, floralinspired look, which would be perfect for a summer music festival or even an evening sipping cocktails on an outdoor terrace. Step 1: Start with an Inglot primer. Rachida used a 21T brush for the application of both primer and then foundation. Step 2: Use the YSM matte, full coverage foundation. Rachida used no. 49 to suit Habiba’s skin tone. Apply this to the face first, paying special attention to the under eye area and then apply to the neck. Step 3: Apply fixing powder, no.65, all over the face and neck to set the foundation so that it doesn’t run or smudge. Step 4: Rachida chose a fun, bold colour palette of peaches and bronzes for the eyeshadow. She used colour numbers 606, 6068 and 609. Start by dabbing the palest colour onto the brow bone, just under the eyebrow. Then, blend downwards, gradually using the darker colours, until you use the darkest one towards the base of the eyelid.
