One of my favourite looks that she created was the "Natural Sculpted Look", face chart below. It features contoured eyes and cheeks, with matte defined lips and minimal colour on the cheeks. If you're familiar with Illamasqua, this look is quite different from the bold looks normally associated with the brand. And of course me being so in love with all things Illamasqua, I just had to recreate it!

Here is what it looked like on the models - simple, defined and elegant.

Here's my interpretation.
I didn't have any of the actual products used in the show, but upon raiding my Illamasqua collection I found quite a few shades that were similar enough and would work well for this look.
Face
Maybelline Dream Liquid Mousse Foundation in NudeMAC Mineralize MSFN Powder in Medium
Cheeks
Illamasqua Blush in Disobey - used as contour
Illamasqua Blush in Ambition - very lightly used on apples of cheeks for some colour
Eyes
Illamasqua e/s in Slink - lid, inner corner and highlight
Illamasqua e/s in Jules - crease and outer V area. I also used this colour on my eyebrows.
Maybelline Gel Eyeliner in Blackest Black
Maybelline Great Lash Lots of Lashes in Blackest Black
Lips
Styli Style lipliner in Monte Carlo - a pinkish purple used to define my lips
Illamasqua cream colour pigment in Hollow - dabbed on lips with my finger
For my hair, I just put it up in a messy bun just like in the show, and randomly twisted and pinned me fringe away from my face.

DeleteLooks so beautiful! I love the look of the new collection, no doubt I'll also ending up hauling some items (my eyes are on the nail polishes and the neutral quad). :)
ReplyDeleteThe polishes look gorgeous, especially the mint green one :-)
DeleteLove this!
ReplyDeleteThanks hun.
DeleteOk, first of all- you should wear your hair in a bun more often, it really suits you! Secondly: oh hun, I'm mesmerized by the eye makeup! Somehow it manages to look "clean"/natural AND a bit smokey!!!
ReplyDeleteAaw thanks hun, it was messy second day hair so it was easier to put in a bun than do anything else. And the eye look was fairly simple, just used the two colours and blended. xo
DeleteAbsolutely beautiful! And I am still yet to try anything Illamasqua...
