To start off, it is essential that you prime your skin. The Hourglass primer is one that minimizes pores, redness and controls oils, so if you’re one to have oily skin, this is the primer is the one for you. It will make you glow, especially if you use a dewy foundation, this can be a lifesaver when you want your foundation to last all day and night. If you enjoy an illuminated look that moisturizes and nourishes the skin, then the Ellis Faas foundation is your go to. With SPF in it for ultimate protection in the sun to avoid freckles and wrinkles while also smoothing your skin it just takes a small pump and a thin layer on top of your primer.

It is all about what products you use, not necessarily how good you are at applying them. The Stila Soul Palette has all the bronze, brown and neutral tones you need. Pairing this with the Nars eyeshadow duo will brighten up the eye, especially if you are one with blue or green eyes, like this Fashionista, this allows for a gold bronze smokey eye to really stand out. To make it even bolder, finish your bronze eye with the volumizing mascara from By Terry, no more fake lashes or extensions ladies! It’s time to let your own lashes grow. Using three coats of this long-lasting waterproof mascara will give you just the same volume length and curl you love from fake lashes… it even activates lash growth! Pairing this natural bronzed look with a white blazer really brings out her eyes even more. Remember it is not only the make up look you go for but how you pair it with accessories and your outfit that will make it even more bold.

This Fashionista’s savior is her finishing powder from Hourglass. After applying the Nars Bronzer on the cheek bones, to complete her look and be sure it will stay looking fresh and glowing, she uses a finishing powder to set the foundation.  This maintains the radiance and recreates the amazing flattering light sources on your face.
