Makeup How To: Selena Gomez

BH — Wed, 15 Aug 2012 23:18:48 +0000

Selena Gomez is everywhere – on the news, radio, fashion mags, and Justin Bieber’s heart. Her talent and relationship to the Biebs have made her famous, but we’re also giving her credit for always having flawless makeup and hair. Here are two of our Selena-makeup-faves and how to re-create her looks!

Look 1: Tangerine & Peach

Light touches of color make your skin-tone look more lively and create a natural glow.

Eyes: Take the 120 Color Eyeshadow Palette 5th Edition and apply a soft shimmer eyeshadow in taupe over the entire lid. Sweep a coral shade from the palette over the eye lid and crease. Then, line the eyes with a dark brown or charcoal black shadow and blend well for a soft application.

Face: Apply the coral blush from the 10 Color Professional Blush Palette to the apples of your cheeks. You can blend using a pale pink blush to make your cheeks look more peachy.

Lips: From the 66 Color Lip Gloss Palette, apply the soft pink-coral lip color using a Lip Liner Brush.

Look 2: Sultry Selena

This light smoky eye application is a step up from the neutral look shown above as it portrays a little more drama.

Eyes: Using the same 5th Edition Palette, apply a medium taupe over your eye lid. Then, starting from your lash line, blend a charcoal black shade and work your way from the lash lines into the crease, and slighty extend the shadow out toward the temples. Keep applying to your desired intensity, and sweep a dark brown shimmer on your crease for an extra pow. Also, you can add white to the inner corners of your eyes to brighten.

Face: Make your cheeks glow using our Bronzing Powder in Golden. This is a versatile color and can work on any skin tone.

Lips: Finish your look with a nude Lip Gloss in Plain Jane or Peace, Love & Mod.

MUA Monday – Summer Lip Colors

Summer is the perfect season for trying new and vibrant colors, especially on the lips. I took advantage of the wide color selection in the 66 Color Lip Gloss Palette to show you a few trendy & fun Summer lip shades that can be achieved with this palette.

1) Pale Peach – I chose to go with a pale peach lip color because it’s soft, classy yet still adds a nice pop of color to the face. You can intensify or lighten this color to the desired shade that matches your complexion best by using the white lip color found in the upper corner of the lip palette. Mix gradually into the bright color (of your choice) until the desired shade is achieved.

2) Orange Ombre – Yes, orange. It’s not a far stretch from the hot tangerine and coral lip colors so popular today and can add a really nice touch to the lips, putting a twist on the classic red lip look. I decided to have some fun and created an “ombre” effect with this lip color by using the white and red colors from the lip palette.

Remember to have fun with your makeup! There are many ways to get creative!

Sincerely,

Julia

Cosmetics Color Trend of 2012

Pantone, the industry’s “authority on color,” predicts color trends each year and recently announced that the color trend of 2012 will be Tangerine Tango, which is a reddish orange color.

You’re probably thinking, “Orange makeup?” We say, “YES!” We’ve been seeing more cosmetics products that have a red/orange hue – nail polish, lip stick, eyeshadow, you name it! The team here at BH is a dedicated believer in Tangerine Tango as we are all supporters of bright and bold makeup.
