Backstage @ Ricardo Seco FW17 | A Complete

Beauty inspiration from makeup artist Mayela Vazquez for A Complete:
“Cool and fresh” look for this collection which, “focused on bringing the best version out from each of the models.”

Prep

Before applying anything on the skin, an A Complete Eye Contour Cream“This product made the under eyes look more awake instantly! I also love that it’s super moisturizing and it holds on any makeup added on top as well which is always key as a makeup artist.”.

Follow up with A Complete Youth Preserve Serum all over the T-Zone, cheeks and neck create a beautiful glow.

Complete prep with A Complete Facial Youth Moisturizing Cream on “only on the models who had a more dry skin, to help them improve their appearance.”

Beauty

Once the skin is radiant add just a little bit of the It Cosmetics Bye-Bye Under Eye Concealer to eliminate any dark circles under the eyes.

For foundation, use Becca Aqua Luminous Foundation which is perfect to add a nice glow without using too much product.

To set up the makeup use a little amount of Laura Mercier’s Translucent powder on the T-Zone and under eyes. “I applied it with a big round brush.”

“For the eyes, I curled the lashes and depending on each model natural eyelid shade. The colors I used were either a vanilla mixed and blended all over the eyelid with a cappuccino or a peach-pink color.  The eye shadows where from Xanteria Cosmetica.”

The highlight for the look were the lashes, using the Excessive Lash Mascara from Make Up For Ever.

“I used the bronzer from Hourglass (Ambient Palette) and I pressed the color under the cheekbones for a contoured and defined structure. “

Finish up the look with Rosebud Lip Balm.
