New Years Eve Celebrity Makeup Look

I had the pleasure of doing Makeup on new years eve for Actress/ Spokeswoman Gabrielle Union and her boyfriend, Miami Heat basket ball player superstar,Dwayne Wade for their New Years Eve Grand Gala in South Beach. Many have asked how did I achieve her look. Here it is:

Step 1. Prep the skin. Start with a clean fresh moisturized face. If you have oily skin use an oil free moisturizer. I used M.A.C. Oil Control Lotion all over her face and neck. Step 2. Prime the skin. Primer is not the same as a moisturizer. A primer makes your face smoother and ready for the foundation, helps smooths out the appearance of texture and helps with the wear ability of your foundation and face makeup. Step 3. Complexion apply concealer over any imperfections and under eye dark circles. I used Studio finish Concealer one skin shade lighter. Using a 190 MAC foundation brush, I applied studio fix fluid foundation all over her face and neck. Finish off by dusting Mineralized Satin Finished Foundation Loose powder with a 150 large powder brush to set. Eyes Using MAC Paint Pot in Painterly as a shadow base, apply over the entire lid for wearability. I then lined the waterline, upper lash line and bottom lash line with Smolder eye Kohl pencil generously, then smudged and set it by applying Black tide over that. I then used "Bronze" in the inner crease and "Embark" on the outer Crease. I used "Brule" under the brows to the crease and blended with a 286 blending brush. Using Duo Lash glue adhesive, I applied the glue to the strip of MAC false lash number 34 waited a couple minutes for glue to get tacky before applying to lash line. Finish up by using fluid line in Blacktrack. Lips Prep the lips with MAC Prep + Prime lips for lip color longevity, and to help prevent feathering(This is one of my favorite MAC products). Then line lips with Half red Liner, & apply Viva Glam V lipstick to lips all of thes are by MAC... I love MAC what can I say. Cheeks I use Ambering Rose Powder Blush on the apples of her cheeks using a 116 MAC brush :) I hope everyone has a marvelous and prosperous New Year!!!! Enjoy and be safe. Love & lipstick ~Cindi~
