^ Google or search on youtube for 'splatter manicure tutorial' - there are quite a few versions out there so you should be able to find something that suits. either that or a marble manicure tutorial. Good luck! :flower:

Pretty sure it's what people call "Marbling." This is by far the best version I've seen :D

What products would you guys recommend to achieve her dewy, natural look on the left? The blush and lips in particular. I'm dying for suggestions! Any recs greatly appreciated!

For the dewiness I'd mix some foundation or tinted moisturizer with Weleda Skin Food. I saw another makeup artist do this on a photoshoot and the models' skin looked similar. For the blush I'd use a cream or gel peachy pink shade like Stila Convertible Color or Benefit. The lips could be any clear bright pink gloss but it particularly reminds me of Urban Decay XXX Quickie, LipFusion Sugar, Loreal ColorRiche gloss in Watermelon Crush. It could be many things.
 
^^ I would definitely suggest the Stila Convertible Colour in the shade Gerbera for the blush. With some kind of liquid highlighter over the top, possibly Benefit High Beam?
 
I'd try a well blended red-y pink lip and cheek stain (Benetint would work beautifully) and then a highlighter (Becca Shimmering Skin Perfector is my fave and Pearl is great for fair girls) on the cheekbones.

Or Tarte cheek stain in Tickled could work too. Clinique's Almost Lipstick in Black Honey (classic!) on the lips.

A dewy skin trick my Korean friend taught me is to use a hydrating or refreshing facial mist as a last step in her makeup. There are specific products out there (Evian, Avene, La Roche-Posay, etc), but she just uses an alcohol-free rose water toner in a mister. I make my own with rose water, aloe, and a few drops of glycerin. Out of this world dewiness. I love to take it with me on flights. Makes the air smell good too, haha.

So many things could work. I'd personally go for the Benetint and facial mist combo. :smile:

Does anyone know how to create these Chanel F/W 2012 bejewelled eyebrows?

In some close-ups the sequins seem to be attached to a very thin piece of tulle. I guess a glue gun would do the job but I'd be more tempted to use needle and thread to make them neater. You should probably trace the shape of your eyebrow first with some tissue paper to get a template. Let us know how it works out! :flower:
 
Hey guys, does anybody have an idea what eyeshadow Kristen is wearing in this ad? TIA

I love how soft and airbrushed her cheek colour looks here, no harsh lines at all and a really pretty colour, does anyone know how to achieve something like this?

Thanks so much :flower:
