Over the last 3 days we’ve given you a sneak peak behind the brushes of our super star H&Mu artist – Lou Box…This is the final instalment!
MAKEUP ROOM SECRETS #3/3
Megan Williams at Storm– aka “Megan May”
by Hair and Makeup Artist LOU BOX
Megan’s look is the most natural of the bunch but it takes no less time and no fewer products to achieve!!
I used my usual concealers, powders and cream contour but used Nars Illuminator in Orgasm to highlight. I also used Soliel Tan De Chanel cream bronzer (an incredible product for fair skin) and Chanel’s new Blush Cream De Chanel in Revelation – whilst I’m still a massive fan of my Bobbi Brown cream blushers, these Chanel blushes are a nice alternative if you prefer a slightly more velvet finish. Gorgeous stuff!
I then used my trusty Vanilla pigment to highlight the eye area and a very peachy mix of eyeshadows to emphasise Megan’s socket line and under-eye area: probably a mix of Bobbi Brown’s Toast and Grey; perhaps with a little Mahogany. Megan’s brows are magnificent so we just used a little hairspray on a disposable mascara wand to set them in place.
I then used gel liner to line just at the lash root on the top lashes and smudged this a little out onto the outer corner of the eyes and a little underneath. I then curled Megan’s (amazing) eyelashes and applied plenty of mascara, finishing off with a little MAC lipstick in Hue.
I then heat-protected her hair and set about loosely curling random small sections to give a natural, messy finish. Once the hair was cool I asked Megan to shake her head upside down and I loaded the hair with both the Redken Spray wax and Kevin Murphy Anti Gravity Spray to give mailability, texture and separation.
Three unstoppable babes, I think you’ll agree!!
