August's Verve Make-up Trends

Lotus Bloom
Subtly sculpted cheeks in pink with shades of strawberry dusted over the eyes creates a petal-soft, fresh look.
Product recs: Kryolan Supracolor Palette; M.A.C Lipstick in Politely Pink; M.A.C Strobe Cream; Bobbi Brown Cream Blusher in Clay; Yves Saint Laurent Mascara Volume Effet Faux Cils
Peacock Preen

Nothing like contrasting blue, green and purple to make the eyes pop. Add a touch of gold for that exotic sheen.

Pri, like always tinted moisturizer with strobe liquid will give u dewy glowy skin. I love applying Blushcremes with M.A.C's 187 Brush, the stippling duo-fibre brush!!

Pri,
When you apply blush you smile and apply it on the apples of your cheeks. When you contour you suck your cheeks, and put it in the hollows.

NEVER EVER CONTOUR WITH BLUSH. Always contour with bronzer!

Kaya,

My name is Saniya. You can also address me by "I Heart Make-up" whatever you prefer. M.A.C's skincare regimen is good, but for aging skin I prefer Clarins. Ask her to see a specialist in Clarins on what to use. That would be your best bet!

i♥make-up said...

Strobe apply it like a regular moisturizer, with your hands, just apply it like a cream. Tinted moisturizer, apply it with a stippling duo fibre brush (M.A.C Brush No. 187)

kaya said...

thank you,may i just ask why M.A.C over Clarins and i also read somewhere that on can mix the strobe and tinted moisturizer together? x

p.s:i just noticed how many ridiculous typing errors there were in my last comments lol!
