Model Makeup

Part of my Media Studies coursework is to create an album cover (back, front and inlay) and also a magazine cover and article. I needed a model and didn't have to look any further because of my best buddy Tayyibah who was so happy that I had asked her.

Tayyibah has such a lovely bubbly personality and is so pretty (we'll talk about those cheekbones later!) so I knew she would be the perfect model

On Sunday afternoon, armed with a bag of makeup and brushes I headed to Tayyibah's place ready to do her makeup. 

Products used:

Jouer tinted moisturiser in Nude

Dior Nude Blush/Bronze in Pink Glow 001

Becca Shimmering Skin Perfecter in Opal

MAC eye shadows: All that Glitters, Naked Lunch, Mulch, Tempting, Woodwinked and Black Tied

Maybelline Liquid eyeliner

Maybelline bottom liner

Chanel Rouge Coco Shine in 68, Candeur 
Chanel lip gloss in 73

Here is a quick step-by-step guide to show you how I achieved the look: 

Face:

After applying tinted moisturiser to Tayyibah's whole face I contoured her amazing cheekbones with the bronze side of the Dior palette. Then applied blush and highlighter. 

Eyes: 

I didn't take an eye primer so I used a touch of the tinted moisturiser across Tayy's eyelids and then went in with MAC all that glitters all over the lid . I then used a pencil brush and Mulch and Tempting eyeshadows to create a V shape. Tayyibah's eyes are a really nice shape and make applying eyeshadow that much easier! I blended it out and added a touch of Black Tied eyeshadow for a little more dimension. I felt like it needed a little something extra so I applied Woodwinked eyeshadow to centre of the lids.  
The eyeliner was the trickiest part especially trying to get the flicks to match but after trying a couple times and with the help of Simple wet wipes we got there in the end!

Lips:

Quick swipe of lipstick and gloss to complete to the look 

 

Step 1: Applying the eyeshadows

Applying the top liner

What a cutie! 

Cheekbone envy!!! 

Tayyibah applied the mascara and bottom liner herself and I filled in her eyebrows slightly. 
The look was complete with a scarf from Accessorize and a Primark headband 

I am so happy with how the pictures have come out on the lovely DSLR. 
I will be posting the proper pictures in the next post which should be up in the next few days. Here's a sneaky peek cute montage Tayyibah created and posted on Instagram

A huge thank you to my lovely friend Tayyibah for modelling for me!

P.S Eid Mubarak to all of you celebrating. Hope everyone has a fab day.
