Birthday girl...

Had the Joy of working with a past client who this time brought along a friend. she was celebrating her BDay in DC and I had the pleasure of giving her some shimmer. As you can see, she is already a beauty.

Products used-

Foundation: graftobian (3 shades for contour, highlight and foundation color)

I set her foundation with Ben nye banana powder and black opal oil absorbing finishing powder in medium.

Eyes: redbrick, embark, forgot the name of the pigment on her lid but all lid colors are MAG. Also used fig and sketch to define the outer corner. ($1 lashes)

Contour: blunt blush by MAC
Highlight: took some shimmer to the high planes of her cheek bones and brow one as well as her nose, using gold deposit MSF by MAC.

Cheeks: Milani baked blush (forgot the color) but these blushes are gorgeous!!

Lips: mixture of l/s including fresh brew by MAC and cork liner. Also a frosty pink gloss by sephora was used. Side note: SEPHORA has some amazing glosses for a good price and they offer more product than MAC.
