MAKEUP ROOM SECRETS #2/3
Emilia Fenton at Premier – aka “Mills”
by Hair and Makeup Artist LOU BOX
Milly is one of my favourite faces to work on – I’ve known her for years and she just gets more gorgeous every time I see her!
So for this look I used my usual base products – Concealer where needed, set with a little powder; cream highlighters, contour and, again, my beloved Bobbi Brown Pot Rouge – this time I mixed both Powder Pink and Calypso Coral.
I defined Milly’s brows with my Suqqu Eyebrow Liquid Pen in Brown (I wish they made this in lighter colours, it’s genius, but it’s only really suitable for dark brows) and curled her lashes.
I used a little of the Bobbi Brown eyeshadow in Heather to contour Milly’s socket-line and highlighted her brow with Bone shadow.
I then used my Illamasqua Gel Liner in the waterline, took this into the lash-bed on the upper and lower lashes and then smudged this outwards to accentuate the cattiness of Milly’s eyes. I softened this using Bobbi Brown shadow in Smoke. Finishing up the eyes again with Masquara!
For the lips we just used a little balm and a touch of Powder Pink Pot Rouge.
Hair! After using the Kerastase heat protector I then waved Milly’s hair using my Jumbo Hot wand by Diva in large random sections, letting the hair drop as soon as it was curled. Once all the hair was cooled I brushed it out a little, shook the hair so it naturally formed sections and sprayed it through with Redken Wax Blast – god I love spray Wax, it’s unbeatable for getting texture! I also added a some Big Sexy Hair Dry Shampoo and Powder Play to thicken out Milly’s hair a little.
