MAKEUP
Step by Step “How-to” tips from Celebrity Makeup Artist, Claudia Betancur:
v Giselle’s look was all about the bold eyes and natural lip. Start off with applying L’Oréal Paris True Match Lumi Healthy Luminous Foundation in Natural Beige, which glides onto skin, providing an impeccable canvas for seamless makeup application.
v Highlight your cheekbones with L’Oréal Paris True Match Super Blendable Blush in Baby Blossom for a natural flush.
v Afterwards, start with the eyes by applying L’Oréal Paris Infallible Eye Shadow in Bronzed Taupe on the entire lid.
v Highlight eyes with a hint of L’Oréal Paris Infallible Eye Shadow in Eternal Black but also mixing it with Sultry Smoke so the eyes don’t seem too dramatic yet attention-grabbing.
v Since this look is all about the eyes, use a gel liner to achieve that wet, fresh look. Try L’Oréal Paris Infallible Never Fail Lacquer Eye Liner 24H in Blackest Black.
v Add a subtle color to your lips such as L’Oréal Paris Infallible Le Gloss 8HR in Petal, which leaves a nice glossy touch yet not steering the attention from your bold eyes.
