Nicola Peltz: Much Music Video Awards

Recently, I worked with the beautiful and talented, Nicola Peltz. I did Nicola's makeup for the Much Music Video Awards. Here's what I used: For her face, I started by applying Calm & Composed Moisturizer all over her skin. This moisturizer is great for sensitive skin. Next, I used Mark Face Xpert in Buff and applied it with the foundation brush. I put Mark Good Riddance Concealer in Light/Medium around her nose and under her eyes. This concealer melts into the skin, so it's easy to blend and hide blemishes and imperfections. I set her foundation with Mark Powder Buff in Buff using the powder brush. After the powder is set, I dusted on Glowdacious Illuminating Powder in Prettied Up using the angled contour face brush. I applied this shimmery powder to her cheeks. This powder is perfect for giving a radiant, healthy glow to the face. Then I added a powder blush, I dusted Good Glowing Blush in After Glo on her cheeks by using the angled contour face brush. For her eyes, I prepped the eyes with Please Hold Eye Primer in Light/Medium. I applied I-Marks in Minx mixed with Corset to her eyelid using the all over eyeshadow brush. Then, using the angled contour eyeshadow brush, I blended both shadows into the crease of the eyelid. I smudged I-Mark eyeshadow in Corset along the top and bottom lashline using the hookup eyeliner brush. To finish the eyes, I used two coats of Make it Big Mascara in Raven. For her lips, I used Shine Tube Hook Up Lip Gloss in Sugared Almond.

Aubrey Plaza: MTV Movie Awards



Today, I worked with the super cute and funny, Aubrey Plaza. I did Aubrey's makeup for the MTV Movie Awards. Here's what I used: For her face, I started by applying Matte Chance Moisturizer all over her skin. This moisturizer is great for combination to oily skin types. Next, I used Mark Face Xpert in Honey and applied it with the foundation brush. I put Mark Good Riddance Concealer in Light/Medium around her nose and under her eyes. This concealer melts into the skin, so it's easy to blend and hide blemishes and imperfections. I set her foundation with Mark Powder Buff in Natural using the powder brush. I chose this powder because it is so hot outside, I had to give Aubrey enough coverage so that it didn't melt off her face. After the powder is set, I dusted on Bronze Pro Bronzing Powder in Pro Golden using the blush+bronzer brush. I applied the bronzer to her forehead, cheeks and chin. For blush, I dusted Good Glowing Blush in Star Glo on her cheeks by using the angled contour face brush. For her eyes, I prepped the eyes with Please Hold Eye Primer in Light/Medium. I applied I-Marks in Biscotti mixed with Tiki to her eyelid using the all over eyeshadow brush. Then, using the angled contour eyeshadow brush, I blended Espresso into the crease of the eyelid.
