Sunflower Sister makeup
Is there anything more beautifuk than a Summer sunflower? Vibrant, cheerful and oh-so seasonal! We have taken inspirations from them today, for this fun Summertime makeup look!
We're starting with our brows for this look. Taking the spoolie end of our Bella&Bear Iberian Lynx Brow Brush we are brushing through the brow hairs, shaping them lightly.
Then, using the brush end we are sweeping some ABH Dipbrow Pomade through the thinner areas of the brows and using it to define the shape of the brow.
Now, taking our Bella&Bear Golden Cat concealer brush and some Urban Decay Naked Skin Concealer we are going to outline the brows and pull the product outward to blend it. This is called 'Carving' the brows and will make them ultra-defined and sharp.
Now, we are going to work on the eyes - and they are going to be poppin'! We start by working some Benefit Stay Dont Stray Primer all over the lid to allow our shadows a strong base and make the colours extra vibrant.
Then, taking our Bella&Bear Bornean Bay Cat brush and a matte orange shadow, we are working it along the crease of the eye and into a V shape on the outer corner. Be sure to blend the edges for a soft finish. For this look e are using the Revolution Maxi Reloaded Monster Mattes palette.
Lets pick up our Golden Cat brush and that same concealer again. This time we are using it to create a dome shape onto the lid to get a cut-crease effect with our shadow.
To follow we are using our Bella&Bear Fishing Cat brush to press a matte yellow shadow on top of that concealer.
Now, using our Bella&Bear Caracal eyeliner brush and some ELF Cream liner we are drawing a wing along the upper lash line
Lets work on those lashes now.We start by curling them using our Bella&Bear Eye and Mighty lash curlers for some lift. We curl for 20-30 seconds on each eye.
We then lock that curl in with a coat of the Bodyshop Happy Go Lash Mascara.
As this is an extra special look we are adding on some falsies, too! So, taking our Bella&Bear Angled tweezers and a pair of the Eylure X Vegas Nay easy elegance falsies, we are placing them as close to the natural lashline as possible for an undetectable finish.
Its time to work on our skin now. We are beginning by smoothing a primer over the face using our fingertips. We love the Bodyshop Instablur.
Now, we take our Bella&Bear Jaguar angled kabuki and use it to apply a full coverage foundation to the skin. We are using some Estee Lauder Double wear mixed with a few drops of the Gerard Cosmetics BB+Illumination creme.
Then, to disguise any problem areas we are going in with some more of that concealer. We are using our Bella&Bear Ocelot concealer brush to blend our concealer into our foundation seamlessly.
Finally, we are setting our concealer by pressing some Laura Mercier Setting powder onto it with our Bella&Bear Margay cat brush. We are leaving the rest of the skin dewy, however, if you prefer a matte finish then use your Bella&Bear Leopard face brush to dust the whole face with your setting powder.
Let's add some summer colour to the face now. Using our Bella&Bear Bobcat blush brush we are dusting the hollows of the cheeks, the temples and the hairline with some bronzer - our favourite is Hoola by Benefit.
You know we've got to add a little highlight too - it'll look gorgeous in the Summer sun! We are using a golden highlight here - dusting it over the high points in the face using our Bella&Bear Marbled Cat brush. We love the IHeartRevolution Hot Summer of Love highlight for this.
We want to finish off the eyes now - so we are taking some Charlotte Tilbury Rock'n'Kohl eyeliner in Barbarella Brown and using it to fill in the lower waterline.
Next, we are popping some lash glue just below the lower lash line and we are then using our Bella&Bear Margay Cat brush to press on some gold cosmetics glitter
Finally, our lips. We are keeping them neutral so that all the focus stays on those dazzling eyes! We start by lining the lips using some M.A.C Stripdown liner.
We then take our Bella&Bear Rusty Spotted Cat lip brush to paint the lips with some M.A.C Velvet Teddy lipstick.
We finish with a spritz of the Urban Decay All Nighter setting spray to lock everything in place.
For our hair, we are beginning by brushing it through using our Bella&Bear Brush on you detangler for smooth, sleek locks.
Then, we pull it back into a tight, low bun and pull on our strawberry blonde wig!
We finish by adding our yellow bandana - you can read our post with 6 ways to style your bandana here!
