Facial Makeup Tip, Fashion-Forward to the '40's

The facial makeup tip we are emphasising this season is this - faces need to provide the perfect foil for the bold new eye and lip palettes.  Go for a perfect nude, matte look to set off the new bold shimmers and jewel shades.  For a forward looking fashion statement, hot off the catwalks, this look fuses classic 30s and 40s with a modern application.  Crimson lips and pale skin evoke a byegone era when women really worked it. 

Create a lasting base with i.d bareMinerals Foundation  with SPF15, now apply a lighter shade of foundation on nose and chin to create the perfect contours. Apply Mineral Veil to give that flawless, nude look, softly veiling the skin in a soft focus.  Dust matt-effect loose powder gently all over, with a liberal amount on the bridge of nose, chin and forehead to keep it matte.

Enhance your cheek bones with loose powder blusher, like warming bareMinerals Blush in Beauty. The fabulous colours of the creamy, pure bareMinerals blushes give you a beautiful, natural and healthy looking skin tone. These blushes create a soft, radiant glow on any skin type or tone; including sensitive and oily skin.

There's so much you can do with your facial makeup, tip all those heavy pastels out and bring in the hot shimmery metals, flame-reds for eyes and nudes for the face and make a statement this season - bold, sexy, alluring and dramatic.
