This is a beautiful look! You can use either the deep purple on the lipstick like I did, OR you can go for a nude lipstick! This is one of my favourite makeup look, it's simple but beautiful. You can also use many different colours for this and you can also "jazz" it up.

• Black eyeliner or gel eyeliner
• Mascara
• Your choice of deep purple or nude lipstick including lipliner.
• Foundation, concealer and powder of your type.

1. Cleanse and moisturise your face from any makeup residue or dirt. 

2. Apply your eye primer or concealer, it does the same job make sure you use your colour shade. Using a medium fluffy brush, create a "C" shape at the outer corner of your eye. Using the same brush, blend your eyeshadow out. I will post pictures! 

3. Using a slanted flat brush dip into your black gel eyeliner, or your black eyeliner and line your inner rim, where your eyelashes begin, it will make your eyelashes seem longer and it will just be enough black to make the purple stand out!  I then coat a few lashes of mascara on my bottom and top lashes.

4. Using your foundation brush apply your face primer around your face, primer acts a barrier as it will make your foundation stay longer and it's useful for ladies who have combination and oily skin! I then use my foundation, I normally do 2 layers and you always make sure the first layer is set before applying the other, as it may get horrible... 

5. I then apply my powder with a powder brush, and there a few different types: Translucent powder, loose powder and pressed powder. Whatever your prefrences are use them, I use translucent powder as I do find it gives a lasting matte finish, and it won’t affect your foundation colour.


6. I apply my blush or bronzer, somedays I do change lol. I apply that with a blush brush, find where your cheek bones are, start from the middle of your ear and end where your eye begins.


7. I then define my eyebrows with, with a shade lighter then my natural hair colour, you can go out of your way to define them, or you can just fill them in. I use a small flat brush.


8. And for the lipstick, for many women, they have their own preferences on lipstick. I would recommend using a nude, soft pink or darker pink shade. I use a a lipliner, and I define my natural lips and I also draw them in, the wax in the lipliner has a lasting power. I then use a lipliner brush, rather then the end, as it gets in those small places and fill the lips in, I go over with a few coats.


9. I finish off with Ben Nye Final Seal, and it will keep your makeup even longer!

10. Don't forget to define your eyebrows, with a brow pencil or brow eyeshadows. Start by tracing your natural eyebrows, and remember to fill them in. Eyebrows are quite hard to get even, but they are very important!
