In the Wintry Countryside


These photos were taken from a photoshoot I did with Genoveva Wayment Photography.



To achieve this look, I first applied a long wear liquid foundation which I set loosely with a foundation powder using a large powder brush. I then began to blend in a rosy/peachy/golden pressed shimmer trio to the apples of my cheek which I worked outwardly toward my temples following the cheek bone. To add more contour, I applied a coral shade of blush only to the apples of the cheek.


For the eyes I remained monochromatic using only shades of purple. I began with a medium shade which I applied onto the entire lid. I then blended in a deeper shade for contour starting on the outer edge of the crease and blending my way in. I reserved the lightest shade for highlight which I applied to the brow bone and the area surrounding the tear duct.








Finally, I applied a black gel liner only on the top of the lid to open and lift the eye.
