    I liked how she put the foundation on with a brush. I have never seen anyone do that. And she went back in with concealer afterward.

    I learned that to create a flawless complexion you need to think about three things–an even complexion, creating some natural dimension, and giving yourself a sun-kissed glow. To achieve this you need four products–concealer, foundation, bronzer, and blush.

  • by Ashley February 7, 2010 at 12:34 pm

    I thought she had several great tips in the smokey eye video, namely about how it’s about making a gradient of color, starting darker and moving to lighter. Also, she talked about how you could use a different color, not just black- grey, copper, and navy can also look nice.

    I enjoyed the Smokey Eye video, because it’s a look I am still trying to successfully accomplish. :-) I was happy to learn that I can use a brush to smudge the liner out, because usually I try a sponge or q-tip and typically the product wipes away too much (plus it’s a pain finding either of those items in the middle of make up application). :-)
