Ashley Greene: 10th Annual Chrysalis Butterfly Ball


I did Ashley's makeup for the 10th Annual Chrysalis Butterfly Ball. Here's what I used: For the face, I started with mark For Goodness Face Moisturizer SPF30. Then, I used mark Primed For Perfection Face Primer. Now for the foundation, I applied mark MIn-A-Real in Natural with a foundation brush. I used mark Good Riddance concealer in Light/Medium under her eyes and around her nose. To the apple of the cheeks, I brushed on mark Just Pinched in Peachy using a foundation brush. Then I dusted Matte-nificent powder in Buff/Natural with a powder brush to set the look. I layered mark Good Glowing Mosaic Blush in Chica over Peachy, using a blush+bronzer brush. Layering products will make sure they will last all day. For her eyes, I prepped the eyes with Please Hold Eye Primer in Light/Medium. I applied I-Mark eyeshadow in Biscotti to her inner eyelid, as a highlighter, using the all over eyeshadow brush. Then I applied I-Mark eyeshadow in Gioia to the middle and outer lid, blending it outward, using the eye shadow brush. I used an angled contour eyeshadow brush to blend and soften the shadow into the crease. Then I smudged I-Mark eyeshadow in Java along the top and bottom lashline using the eyeliner brush. I finished the eyes with two coats of mark Lash Splash Mascara in Black to the top and bottom lashes. For the lips, I mixed mark Lipclick in Coral Fixation and mark Ibiza Sol Marbleized Lip Gloss in Chica Coral.
