5 MINUTE MAKEOVER Fergie
“This is a smouldering smokey look that oozes glamour,” says Jill.
“It's great for a big night out. It can be hard to get this look right without looking like a drag queen –just keep the rest of your make-up simple.”
Start the look with a really good base as this will form the entire look. A matte foundation will prevent shine and stay in place all night long.
Cover up tired eyes or red blotchy skin with concealer for a smooth clear complexion.
Enhance the cheekbones with
a sun-kissed bronzer with shimmer, like Bronzing Shimmer Powder
in Bronzing Queen €3.49 from Essence.
For best results, you will need
three colours to create a smokey
eye. Start with a base in a shimmery
cream all over the eyelid.
Then use
Duo Eyeshadow in Night Clubbing,
€2.99 as it provides two
shades of smokey greys that blend
easily together. Put the lighter shade
on the lid and then work the darker
shade into a sideways ‘V’ shape on the
outer corner of each eye.
Apply eyebrow pencil to the
brows in order to extend the
brows out further – this will create
a more dramatic feel to the look.
Finally, to achieve those cat-like
eyes, apply black liquid eyeliner
followed by two coats of Extreme
Length Sensitive Mascara from No7,
€16.25
With such a dramatic look you need to go simple with the lips. Apply a fresh shimmering gloss for a light finish.
To complete your look add a touch of Fergie with a spritz of some Fergie Outspoken Intense, €19.50 from Avon
