Woman This Month - May 2012

57 woman this month | May 2012 | Look Two For our second look, we chose a striking pastel-inspired selection of clothes. This lilac and icy-green combination is really fashion-forward and reminded us a lot of the Phillip Lim Spring 2012 runway show. The blazer and accessories are from Stradivarius and the lilac top is H&M. Makeup How To: Ali from Make Up Forever created a slightly more subtle daytime look for our second makeover. He used some lovely soft lilacs, to complement her outfit, and kept the rest of the look fairly neutral, making it a great option for spring garden parties and lunch with friends. Step 1: Ali made sure that Habiba’s face was free of all remnant of the previous look by using Make Up Forever’s So Divine cleanser and high definition moisturiser. Step 2: He then used the Serum HD Elixir, paying special attention to the under eye area, for deep moisturisation. Step 3: Use the Make Up Forever HD primer and foundation and apply all over the face and neck. Step 4: Ali used a Camouflage, full-cover concealer on her brow bone, in light strokes down towards the centre of the eyelid. Step 5: Set with Super Matte loose powder. Step 6: After briefly using the Make Up Forever sculpting kit to lightly shade Habiba’s face, Ali moved on to eyeshadow. He used a purple, no.162, on the base of the eyelid and around the contour of the eyeball. Then, he used an even darker no. 28, right at the base of the eyelid. Step 7: To complement Habiba’s jewellery, Ali opted for a lovely gold shadow, no.10, on the inner eyelid, towards her nose. To finish the eyes, add a light dusting of Star Powder, no.902 and no. 922, on the inner eye and the brow bone. Step 8: To strengthen the effect of the eyebrows, Ali chose the Make Up Forever eyebrow kit no.3 to shape and colour them lightly. Step 9: Finally, use sculpting blush no.8 just under the cheek bones, to hollow out the face slightly and add a dash of lipgloss in a neutral colour.
