Cara Delevingne Makeup Tutorial.

Unless, you’re like Patrick from Spongebob Squarepants who lives under a rock, you should probably know this girl.

Maybe not the name, but you have definitely seen her face somewhere. Ever popular on the runways, tumblr and other social networks.

So I’ve decided to recreate her makeup look, which is subtle yet gorgeous. Read on to find out how!

FACE.

You rarely see her with dewy skin, but her complexion still remains even and natural.

Jouer Matte Moisture Tint.

Follow up with a concealer at areas where you have redness, blemishes or dark circles.

Set everything with a powder so that nothing will budge and prevent it slipping away.

EYEBROWS.

Let’s face it, not all of us are blessed with a set of thick and full eyebrows like Delevingne has. So of course, to recreate her look, we need to fill ours in.

anastasia brow powder duo

Anastasia Brow Powder Duo.

Powder has a more natural finish and when filling them in, don’t have an arch that is too high. Fill them from the contours of your nose to the outer corner of the eye (refer to the picture above!)

 The website also has guides on which color to choose.

Set your brows with a tinted brow gel for more color.

EYES.

She doesn’t have much eyeshadow action going on, but as you can see, there is some color.

naked basics palette

Urban Decay Naked Basics.

Use Naked 2 all over the lid and a little bit of Faint in the crease and along the lower lash line. (Not the waterline!)

At the lower lash line, smudge it out to give a sultry effect.

Then, use Crave and line the upper lash line, keeping it a thin line, as close to the base of your lashes as possible. This gives an illusion of fuller lashes!

maybelline rocket mascara

Maybelline Rocket Mascara.

Add a few coats of mascara, and I feel that this is an amazing mascara which lengthens your lashes & gives them the most definition.

CHEEKS.

Well, look at her cheekbones.

For those of us that don’t have cheekbones that are as defined as hers, time for some contouring!

The Body Shop Honey Bronzer.

This is matte, which is essential for contouring.

To find your cheekbones, suck in your cheeks and make a fish face.

Something like this!

Find your cheekbones and using a big fluffy brush, apply the bronzer right under your cheekbones, to give them more definition.

Be sure to blend well so it doesn’t seem as though there’s dirt on your face!

LIPS.

If you have bigger lips, try using a cream concealer and with a small brush, reshape your lips to a smaller form.

Remember to blend in well.

Now, you’re good to go!

 This look is perfect for a bright or dark lip as the rest of the features are quite toned down.

A plum lip color would be great for a sexy / grunge look and a bright one would be great for the upcoming spring time!

Window Shopping Wants.

One of those days, where I have nothing much to do on the computer and I find myself on Sephora’s website.

Here are some of the stuff that I’m eyeing on and that might perhaps be an option for you when you do some Sephora shopping!

snickeriggles

Look at the gorgeous items. 

urban decay naked 3

Urban Decay Naked 3. 

I have never lusted for Naked 1 & 2, but the thought of this palette being rose-hued just blew my mind. I need it!

ysl touche éclat

YSL Touche Eclat. 

Highly raved and luxurious packaging. I’ve always wanted to try one of these but the price tag has deterred me. Absolutely in love with the packaging and I’m aware that some drugstore brands have tried making a “dupe” or “knockoff” of this. But of course, nothing can beat the feeling of using the real deal.

narsissist cheek kit

NARSissist Cheek Kit.

I’m a fan of NARS, (though I only own the Orgasm blush. meh.) so the thought of having a cheek kit with the amazing quality is quite exciting. Perfect for traveling.

eve lom mask

Eve Lom Rescue Mask.

I managed to get a sample of this mask and I must say that it works wonders. Perfect for those days before a big event (or even on the day itself) and you want to look your best. I need to get my hands on this soon, there’s so many bumps on my face and it’s frustrating.

urban decay eyeliner

Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil.

I have one in the shade Rockstar and I think that it’s a great alternative to the usual black or blue. It’s so creamy and smooth, has to be my favorite eyeliner at the moment. Definitely want to own more!

nars creamy concealer

NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer. 

Another highly raved product, I’m amazed by the coverage it gives. Also, it’s suitable to be applied all over the face, for all kinds of imperfections, so I’m eyeing on them.

ysl volupte sheer candy

YSL Volupte Sheer Candy. 

Just… The packaging. It’s orgasmic and absolutely luxurious. Not to mention it has been raved by essiebutton and I love her taste. I can’t wait to get my hands (and lips) on this baby.

ysl rouge volupte shine

YSL Rouge Volupte Shine. 

I’m not sure if I’m going through a “phase”, but I have been rather interested in dark lips lately. Maybe it’s the grungy mode that I’m starting to get into, but I’m real digging dark lips.

nars sheer glow

NARS Sheer Glow Foundation. 

I’ve seen Tanya Burr talk about this and I’m pretty attracted by the coverage and glow that it gives. Very natural and fresh! Sadly, it’s about $82 (including the pump) over here. I might get one at the end of the year when I go to the US.

ysl stain

YSL Rouge Pur Couture Glossy Stain.

By now… You can probably tell my obsession with YSL. From their perfumes to bags, I’ve quite fancied them. And now that I’ve found out about their makeup brand, amazing. The packaging, quality and pigmentation are fantastic and I can’t wait to own more.

dior lip glow

Dior Lip Glow. 

Apparently this changes according to your body’s temperature and gives an amazing shade of pink that is “your lips, but better”. Plus it’s a lip balm, so I won’t feel that I’m wearing anything too over the top.

hourglass blush

Hourglass Ambient Lighting Blush. 

The packaging’s so sleek and cool, plus I’ve heard quite a few positive reviews about it. I like the marbleized effect of the blush and I don’t think it’s sold where I am so… Sad face! But it’s a good thing as well, or else it’ll add up to my “makeup bill”

anastasia brow gel

Anastasia Tinted Brow Gel. 

I feel that this is a great option when you’re in a rush as all you have to do is run this through your brows. I’m pretty sure you can do a DIY one, but since Anastasia is a professional brand, it should be pretty good.

stila eyeliner

Stila Stay All Day Waterproof Eyeliner. 

I’ve seen Ingrid (missglamorazzi) use this and I like how fine the tip is. It’ll give the nicest and most precise wings, in my opinion. The downside is that it’s waterproof. Not a fan of using a makeup remover.

hourglass eyebrow

Hourglass Arch Brow Sculpting Pencil. 

I’ve seen Estee use this and I like how the pencil is in that shape, makes it easier for filling the brows! Plus it seems really quick too.

dior mascara

Diorshow Iconic Mascara

I love how the brush looks and of course, I trust Dior makeup. Not a fan of the packaging though, the little patterns in the background isn’t the most flattering thing ever.

Alright! That’s all I have for today and I hope you’ve enjoyed this post, and perhaps interested in getting a couple of items that I’ve featured.

Stay tuned for my next post, where it’ll be a sequel to the how to be a tumblr girl.
