odette -- it looks like she just has a little bit of lipstick on, eyeliner on the top of her eye, and brown shadow both on top and on her lower lashline, with it being stronger on the outer corners and blending in

 

[Odette]

Thanks darling! Do you know how to get that hairdo? It is too difficult or can I try it at home?

I'm really not sure how to do the hair, especially since it's kind of hard to see whats going on from that picture. Try parting the hair at the side, take about a half inch section of hair, spray with a light hair spray and curl it using a 2" curling iron. Then just try using pins to clip it in a similar bun type shape. Experiment at home a few days before the event, and if you cant seem to get it right then you can make an appt. at the salon

I forgot to add on the makeup, it looks like her blush is more orange based rather than pink, if you have bronzer you maybe can try sweeping a little bit of that on the apples of your cheeks.

Bronzer that's a good idea, I love it how it makes the cheekbones stand out, as for hair that's too much for me and I don't wanna get hurt three days before my party!

For the skin, just use some sheer foundation and use an illuminator like Smashbox Winter Whites Lux Shimmer Overlay on your cheekbones, down the bridge of your nose, on the and on the bow of your upper lip.

For the eyes, I would say sweep MAC eyeshadow in something like Chill across the entire lid, especially under the lid. Then use Scene slightly above the crease and draw it slightly past the corner of your eye in a catty shape. Then use a dark grey-black all over the crease and using a small shadow brush, use it like a liner to extend it past the corner of your eye. Then line with the dark grey-black shadow on your bottom lashes and use a Q-tip to smudge. Also, use the shimmer you used on your face on your brow bone when you're done with all the shadow!

whew...first one of these I've ever done!

 

[Odette]

I wanted to ask a quick question: Can I wear blush or a quick corrector if I am not wearing foundation? Will it look strange or something? Shall I use foundation no matter what?

 

[sofialuv]

No!
No need for foundation!

If you want, you can use concealer only on areas that need, like dark eye circles, or spots. Just don´t forget to use the right tone (one that matches your skin). Then you can use some powder just to set the concealer.

Then just use whatever you like....blush, eyeshadows, etc....

Thanks! but i just have one question, to achieve the same cat eye look she has, do i need to use black kohl, like fluidline or a pencil or can i get the look with just black eyeshadow?

I would use a fluidline, because the lines need to be very precise. The 60's type eye makeup is quite difficult to do, but it will be fun practicing - have fun!

 

[Odette]

Thanks for the info!
The thing is that at the minute I runned out of foundation and I am testing for new ones(I used L'óreal before) and I trying Estee Lauder, Chanel, Bourjois...
So therefore I didn't want to wear foundation! Love concealer, the best thing ever.

I think you can get away with it, but I owuld use at least a tinted miusturizer

 

[Tushka_BeLLa]
