This was Terry Barbers look using the majority of MAC Pro products like paint sticks and chroma graphic pencils.
This was my final look, I am happy with it but I hate my photograph being took so thats the reason why I barely post tutorials, but I'll try and post more in the future. I am going to give you's a run down on the products used and what I did to achieve this look. This look is definitely not an everyday look, it was just a bit fun and experimentation.
Face
1. I used my Clinique shaving soothing moisturiser, as I always like to shave when I wear make up on my face as I think it applies easier.
2. I then used my new Illamasqua Hydra Veil, a little definitely goes a long way! This is a gorgeous product and it applies flawlessly making your skin feel pure and ready to take anything.
3. I then used the lightest shade in my MAQ pro palette using a flat foundation brush. I kept layering until I had a coverage that I was happy with. It defintely added moisture to my face and felt like nothing was on it.
I tried to keep it to Terrys Advice, I didn't want to make my base flawless because he lectured us on how current trends are working with what you've got.
Powder Etc.
1. To powder I used my new Royal Powder brush, and applied Skinfinish Light plus all over my face to set the wax foundation.
2. I then used my Royal complexion brush to start chiseling out my cheek bones. I am always paranoid that my face is uneven because one side always seems fatter than the other side (possibly to do with my wisdom tooth) but anyways, I always like to contour more heavier on that side compared to the other so they both even up. I used MAC's Nude on Board Pro Longwear bronzer for the base of the contour, I then added NYX's taupe on top to add more definition.
3. For my highlight I used the same brush but clean and swept NARS albatross in a 'C' shape around my eye, and forehead.
Eyes
1. Terry Barber explained to us that thicker and larger eyebrows are in trend this season with models such as Cara Delevingne sporting this trend. Because I have no brows I drew mine on using MAC eyebrow pencils in Lingering and Stud, which is a rich blackened brown.
2. I then used my pencil brush from crown brush to etch and blend out MAC's pencil in black swan to define my crease and eyeshape. I have to point out that crowns pencil brush was extremely harsh on my skin, hopefully it will soften if I condition and wash it :(.
3. For the oxblood colour on my lid I used Brazan a cream blusher by Illamasqua on my lid and then blended it up and out creating a dispersed effect. I decided to use a cream blusher simply because I do not have the paint sticks or pigment terry used. To set this I simply used Illamasqua's setting powder in 010.
4. I then used urban decay's black out to re define the black pencil as some of it was covered up and blended when I added the cream blusher on my lid.
Lips
1. For the lips I lined my lips using NYX's slim lip pencil in hot red.
2. I then used an angled brush to apply MAC's Dark Side on my lips which is a darkened oxblood red.
3. Because I wanted to create a matte lip look, as matte lipsticks is very hot at the moment, I took a 239 brush and patted translucent powder ontop to turn the amplified lipstick into a matte lipstick. (I got this tip from Terry).
