How-To: Golden Luxe Glow Makeup
STEP 1: EYES
The focal point of this look is warm-toned eyes with flecks of golden sheen.
Start by priming your lids with Double Wear 24H Stay-in-Place Concealer. Buff the matte camel shade in Pure Color EyeShadow Quad 04 Desert Dunes into your crease. Press the shimmery shade onto the lid using your finger. Use a flat eyeshadow brush to create a smoky wing on the top lashline with the rich cocoa shade.
Line the lower waterline with Smoke and Brighten Kajal Eyeliner Duo in Dark Chocolate. Then, use the same flat eyeshadow brush to blend the rich cocoa eyeshadow shade along the lower lashline for a smoky eye effect.
STEP 2: FACE
Create an all-over glow focusing on radiant highlighted cheeks and a soft, warm contour.
Apply Bronze Goddess Powder Bronzer using a fluffy powder brush. Brush onto your forehead and hollows of your cheeks to create a soft contoured look. Follow with a complementary shade of Pure Color Envy Blush on the high points of your cheeks.
Then, create your golden glow with Bronze Goddess Highlighting Powder Gelee in 01 Heatwave. This luxe powder highlighter gives skin luminous radiance.
STEP 3: LIPS:
Line your lips with a shade of Double Wear 24-H Stay-in-Place Lip Liner that’s neutral for your skintone:
• If your skintone is light or fair: #15 Blush
• If your skintone is medium: #8 Spice
• If your skintone is deep: #10 Chestnut
Complete your look with a neutral shade of Pure Color Lipstick. Use Pure Color Creme Lipstick if you prefer a smooth satin finish, or our Explicit Shine Lipstick for high-intensity shine.
