Sparkle and Bang look
Are you ready to gather around the bonfire for a spectacular firework display? Today, our look is inspired by warm flames, seasonal scenery - and of course a little sparkle! So get ready to dazzle!
We're starting with our skin for this look, we want it to be flawless and poreless! So, we begin with a primer, we love the Bodyshop Instablur and we work it all over the face with our fingers.
Next, we are going in with a high coverage foundation. We use the TooFaced Born this way Foundation mixed with a little Gerard Cosmetics BB+ Illumination creme and we buff it onto the skin using our Bella&Bear Jagaur angled kabuki.
Of course, we want to disguise any problem areas, so we are going to use some Urban Decay Naked Skin concealer on our Bella&Bear Ocelot concealer brush to hide dark circles and blemishes.
Now, although we want a dewy finish to the skin, it is still important to set that concealer to prevent it from creasing and sliding, so we are going to press some Laura Mercier Translucent powder onto the concealer using our Bella&Bear Leopard Face brush.
We lock that base in place with a spritz of the Revolution Oil control fixing spray.
Let's work on the eyes now, we are keeping them dark and smouldering. We start by working some of the Benefit Stay Dont Stray shadow primer onto the lids to lock our shadows in place.
Next, we take a matte cream shadow on our Bella&Bear Sand Cat brush and we work it right onto the lid and up to the brow bone. We are using the Lick&Lash Warm 35 palette for this look.
To follow, we grab our Bella&Bear Bornean Bay cat brush and a matte taupe shadow and we work it onto the crease, blending upward slightly to soften any edge lines.
Now, we use our Bella&Bear Jaguarundy brush and we pick up a matte chocolate brown shadow - pressing it onto the lid and blending it into that transistion shade.
Lets line our eyes now to have them looking sharp and defined. We pair our Bella&Bear Caracal liner brush with some ELF Cream liner and we draw in a long, thick wing along the upper lash line.
For our lashes we are going large, so we start by curling them using our Bella&Bear Eye and Mighty Lash curler. We then lock that curl in with a coat of the Theyre Real Mascara by Benefit.
To add to that lets put some falsies on. We use our Bella&Bear Angled tweezers to place some GWA Bel Air falsies as close to the natural lash line as possible.
We are going to work on our brows now, first brushing them through using the spoolie end of our Bella&Bear Iberian Lynx Brow brush.
Next, using the brush end, we are working some ABH Dipbrow pomade through the brows, filling in sparser areas and sharpening the shape.
You can always go back through with the spoolie to disperse any extra product if you prefer a softer finish
Its time to go back to our skin now. We are using our Bella&Bear Bobcat brush to work some Hoola bronzer into the hollows of the cheeks, the temples and the hairline. This will stop our skin from looking flat and give it some dimension.
Now, using our Bella&Bear Margay brush and a matte dusty pink blush we are going to swirl it onto the apples of the cheeks for a cute flush of colour.
Lets work on that pout. We use our Bella&Bear Rusty Spotted Cat lip brush to paint the lips with some Bodyshop matte lip in Cape Cala Lily.
Shimmer and shine - its time to add some sparkle! We start by spritzing the nose and the highpoints of the cheeks with some glitter fix and we then use our Bella&Bear Margay Cat brush to press some fine champagne glitter over it.
We also brush a small amount onto the lips!
Then, we brush though our hair, using our Bella&Bear Brush on You detangler for smooth, tangle-free locks and we braid the hair on each side, pinning each braid tightly to the back of the head.
Finally, we pop on our beautiful red wig for hair with a bang!
You're ready to glow! This look is so lovely and will have you shining all night long! We hope you have a fun and safe firework night - be sure to share your #bellaandbearbabe snaps with us over on Insta for a chance to be featured on our grid!
