Hi, I'm Pallavi Symons, your makeup expert at Glamrs.com
Today at Glamrs.com, we've designed a look for you
that's perfect when you hit the beaches because
spring summer is all about looking fresh,
hanging out on the beach or by the pool.
Most of us girls do like to put on just a little bit of makeup
before we hit the beaches.
So, I'm going to show you how you can turn up the heat
for a perfect beach look.
To begin with, I'm going to use an iridescent eyeshadow.
I'm not going to use much else on her eyes, so
be careful where you put the shimmer.
I'm using a flat eyeshadow brush.
Now, just pack on the colour
almost drawing it down.
and give it a nice intense shine.
Just pack it on and be careful
not to go too far into the crease.
Just work that
till the end.
So the most amount of product would be on your eyeball.
And the least on the outer side
of your eye.
Now take a dab of the same colour
with a rounded eyeshadow brush
and just sweep it on to your
side.
Now I'm not picking the colour too far up
over the crease because I want the
darkness of the crease to stay, that shapes the eyes.
I'm just going to do the same thing on the other eye.
Now, I use a paddle brush whenever I want to lay on the
colour really densely.
So, paddle brushes, what they do is they pick up
a good amount of the product and they dispense equally heavily.
Now I'll show you a really good use of a bronzer.
I'm just rolling the blending brush into it
and this is going to create a perfectly natural crease.
So you're not adding extra colour.
Still colour of your skin, colour of your shadow.
What this will do is it will pick up the peach gold pink tone
of the eyeshadow and actually set it out there.
But still, without taking away from the lightness of it.
So you just want to run the bronzer in
really softly, blend it into your brow line here.
Now cleaning up the paddle brush that you used before,
take a dab of highlighter
Make sure you don't have too much.
Put a tiny amount on the inside of the eyes.
and a tinier amount on the brow bone.
And then using the
blending brush that you used earlier,
just blend it off
so it doesn't create three sharp distinct colours.
Now just to define the eyes, just a little bit
not using any kohl pencils none of that.
I'm using the darkest brown
but I don't want it to appear too dark.
This is simply to give the eyes some kind of definition.
Just going over the bottom lash line
very softly with an angled brush.
Again keep very very close to the lash line
and you don't want this to be a thick dark shadow.
It's just a suggestion of a shadow.
Use your finger tip and blend it off.
You can do the same thing on top as well.
Just really close to the lash line on the corners.
Just dust off the excess from underneath.
And really pile on the mascara.
Ideally use a waterproof mascara,
because if you're going to sit down and sweat
all day or even
finally lounge or wander off into the beach,
you know that you have your mascara in place.
So use a good amount because this is what will bring the
life back to your eyes.
Make sure that the lashes are nicely separated.
And also make sure you get the colour right through
because you've used a shimmery eyeshadow and
shimmery eyeshadows spill on the hair
and you don't want any of that unsightly eyeshadow
to be right on top.
So colour in the lashes
fully well,
So layer it on, go in with another coat
I'm just doing a single coat,
just to bring out the lashes.
Well most of us tend to put so much sunscreen on our faces
that it doesn't tan at all
while the rest of the body is burning.
So this is a great time to have a bronzer that works really well.
All you need to do is just run the bronzer quite randomly
in the hollows of your face,
just to kind of darken up
your skin and it will give you the most
enviable
tanned look.
So use it quite generously
in the grooves of your face, hollows.
I would even use it as a blush, just a touch of it.
Just over with the colour under your chin,
make sure that you have a bit of it in the hollows of your
bones here.
So you'll look evenly tanned and there's a nice,
bronzed sun kissed effect to your makeup.
You can use a colour of your choice.
I'm using a really soft
peach.
Just over the bronzer, right on her cheek
so I'm not really blending in much because
there's a fair amount of bronzer right there.
Just to give a her some colour.
It's really quick. It's really just two products on the eyes
shadow of your choice, a mascara,
good bronzer
a touch of blush and lipstick and you're good to go.
To finish the look off, I've applied balm on her lips earlier.
I'm just going to keep that on,
so there's a bit of supple quality to the lips.
Just running a very nude lip pencil
all over as a base.
Not really lining her lips for definition.
This will hold the lipstick in place for sometime.
The thing about lipsticks on the beach is
it's best if you don't pack on the colour.
To finish off, I'm going to use a Color Riche lipstick.
Use a really pretty colour.
I'm choosing a really poppy pink
and I'm going to just
take a good dab of it on my finger tip
and just stain your mouth with a colour
so it doesn't look very deliberately coloured.
Ya, so that's that.
So there you have bright open eyes,
really fresh, really springy, very wearable makeup
for a perfect beach look.
