EYES

You can easily use any gold eyeshadow, shimmers, matte, and cream eye shadows for this application. Start the look with the application of soft eyeshadow on the lids from side to side without leaving the eye socket. The same application can be made with cream eye shadow or applied inside the corner of the eyeshadow.

If you use matte shadows I recommend applying a bit of concealer to the application of your matte eyeshadow. Remember that you will get a more neutral look.

If you use cream eye shadows I recommend applying using your finger tips. If you wait a few minutes you can add a second application for a longer duration. Remember that the main attractions are the eyes.

MASCARA

Don’t forget to apply mascara with possibly more than two to three coats of your favorite mascara. Applying the mascara to the bottom eye lashes is up to your taste. I usually only do this at night though.

WHERE TO GET THE LOOK

I recommend if want to buy eyeshadows at low prices from your drugstore or beauty supplies stores, get Revlon, Cover Girl palletes, Maybelline etc. ….. Prices from $5 to $12 dollars.

But if you want to great brands try URBAN DECAY, MAKEUPFOREVER, MAC, LORAC, or STILA. Their prices range from $ 15 to $ 20. I also recommend DIOR eyeshadow palettes but the prices $55.

CHEEKS

My favorite color for your cheeks is Pink when contrasting with gold. Go soft on the cheek, try to minimize the line to retain a natural application and natural look.
I recommend using SMASHBOX cheek gel GLOW (silicon-based, single-colour) with beautiful consistency for all kinds.

COOL TIP: The interesting thing about this product is that your own temperature changes the color to your natural color of skin, like in the afternoon after the beach.

LIPS BABY

Dont forget if you want shine on your lips first use a natural gloss all over your lips then the gloss goes on top to provide that highlight. Use a lipliner base with a neutral color all over the lips. Next, grab a lipstick with subtle color. Dab on some gold eyeshadow just in the middle of the lips using a cotton swab. Then just pack on a natural gloss over the lips, blending the colors.
