Hi everyone,
I got a package today.... and in it... Martini put some Giorgio Armani testers :D . Sooo naturally I had to try it right away... Here is a quick how to on the look and products I used in this look.
Face:
I started on a fresh face (after my bath I used my Dior Capture RX daycreme and eyecreme) with the Giorgio Armani - Fluid Master Primer which looks like a gel, but feels like a thicker form of Smashbox - Photofinish Foundation Primer. It glides over the skin like silk and my face felt soooo incredibly soft, I was amazed that something felt softer then the Photofinish. Also it's very light and doesn't feel heavy at all after a few minutes, no masklike sensation or anything. As a foundation I used the Giorgio Armani Lasting Silk UV Foundation in 5, which is a little too light for my skintone, but perfect for this look, making me look polished and gives me an alabaster skin. Also this is light enough to not look like your wearing a load of foundation, but also coloured enough to make you need very little concealer. So no concealer was needed, just a little highlighting with Yves Saint Laurent - Touche Eclat in no. 2.
Eyes:
As the base colour I'm using the shimmery white from the Benefit - Valley of the Stars (mini iridescence kit) as a colour all over my eyes using the Urban Decay - Shadow brush. I packed on the colour and when I was done I wanted to add a Geisha hint to the look, so I used the green pencil from the Urban Decay - VIP Travel Size Set of Five 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencils in Covet on my waterline and under my eyes. I ended the line just on the end of my eyes, I then used the Urban Decay - Wonder Brush to make the line go on towards the end of my brow. This maked the line fade out, you can help the fade quicker by blending with your fingers, but I didn't do that here. Make sure both eyes look equal!!!
Sorry the pictures are a bit blurry, the sun is still not shining which means bad lighting and using a flash means I have to be further away from the camera which kills the details.
Lips:
On my lips I used Bare Escentuals - Buxom Big & Healthy Lip Polish in Dolly
I tried!
OH, you look great!
So, the foundation is good, yes???
