Peach, please!
When it comes to colouring the eyes, cheeks and lips, a lip pencil is more versatile than an eye pencil. For this look, use Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Lip Pencil in Wired, $32, a peachy pink shade, to draw a rounded wing tip, then lightly shade the cheeks, and tint the lips.
Red red wine
Create the ultimate smokey eye in maroon using LANEIGE Two-Tone Matte Lip Bar in No. 1 Burgundy Mood, $36. This two-tone lip bar has a dark and light shade which makes for a great gradational eye and lip look.
Red alert
For easy smudging and blending, choose a liquid-to-cream texture like Sephora Collection Cream Lip Stain in 17 Dark Red, $19. To create a stain effect on the lips and cheeks, apply and blend out with your fingers quickly. For the eyes, pick up the colour using a Q-tip then add dots on the outer corners of the eye.
Use a Q-tip for a more precise application.
Start dotting from the outer corner of both upper and lower eyelids and connect them together into a wing-tip.
Dab colour on the cheeks and quickly blend into a blush.
Natural selection
A bronzing stick like Revlon Insta-Blush in Nude Kiss, $25.90, can bring out your features in a very natural way. Use the stick to sculpt and contour the face, create a soft shadow on the eyelids and add a hint of lip colour.
Draw a line across the cheek.
Apply and shade over the eyelid using an eyeshadow brush.
Brush colour onto the lips.
