Before & After

BEFORE (TOP LEFT) AND AFTER (BOTTOM LEFT & RIGHT)

Name: Tracy

Age: (early) 50s
Accentuating Tracy's eyes was easy, and was my main focus.  Other goals for this look include: highlighting the cheekbones, adding colour to the complexion, and colouring the lip in a tan neutral to complement the golden eyeshadow colours.  Her skin looks flawless but I think the consensus was that turning this into a more frequent look would mean using less layers of makeup...so a highlight, contour, blush, and tinted moisturizer instead of liquid + powder foundation.

BEFORE          AFTER 1             AFTER 2

Name: Firoza

Age: 18
For the event that Firoza will be attending this evening, she wants to keep her look subtle but refined, so I have decided to go with a neutral eye and some matte foundation to cover any blemishes.  This is definitely a convenient option that can be done in 5 minutes!

BEFORE                           AFTER

Name: Justine

Age: 15
Because Justine is so young, there is really not much to do in terms of covering or modifying her look. Her skin is porcelain, she has no blemishes, little to no oil, zero wrinkles.  So I've opted for a range of subtle products that will simply accentuate her beautiful features.

BEFORE                                    AFTER

Name: Britany
Age: 18
The first Before & After transformation of this blog is...you guessed it - ME!
Since I'm going to a "soiree" this afternoon, I thought it'd be the perfect time to capture my look on camera :)
I'm usually quite fair - complexion, I mean - and my eyes are very green, so those are the two qualities I want to accentuate in today's look.  The first, I'll do through a pink and peachy blush, which ties in perfectly with the colours of my dress.  And for my eyes, I'm going to do a light, pinky shadow - because it's a daytime event - but finish it off with a subtle purple eyeliner.

Here are the products I'm using:

NARS Tinted Moisturizer in Light 3
Smashbox Photo Finish Primer
Boing by Benefit concealer in 01
Smashbox Photo Finish Eye Primer
Makeup Forever Pencil Eyeliner in Purple
Elizabeth Arden Colour Eyeshadow in and
MAC Cosmetics Eyeshadow in Mylar
