Eye Sight

Two little winged lines can transform your look in a huge way, giving those peepers an open, brighter and lifted appearance. Add shimmery eyeshadow – a darker shade at the outer corners blended into a light hue at the inner corners – and we guarantee you’ll feel like a totally confident babe.

Cheek To Cheek

6/6

To give the illusion of higher cheekbones, contouring is key. After foundation, apply a liquid or powder highlighter to the top of the cheekbones. Next, suck in those cheeks, and blend in bronzer from the top of the ears and into the hollows of your cheeks in an up-and-down motion. Finally, a little peach blush for a radiant flush.
