Overall heres how i would do it



It may not be too accurate but oh well. ha.



1. Concealer under eyes

2. Apply a pink blush to your cheeks and blend with fingers

3. Apply a pink lip gloss

4. Apply a wash all over you lid (whatever you skin color is, apply that color all over your eye)

5. Put on a brown eyeshadow into the hollow of your eye, and blend out.

6. Apply a black eyeliner on the top pretty thick and wing it out a bit. its hard to do a wing, but you'll learn if you try.

7. Apply the black eyeliner in the bottom rim of your eye

8. Apply mascara.



You can get what I listed at the drugstore, like walgreens, target, cvs, rite-aid, walmart, just a drugstore. Or you can get high end makeup like MAC, but since you are a beginner, you should probably stick to stuff like Maybelline (GREAT mascaras) or Covergirl. You can also just browse your drugstore website and see what stuff they have.



Hope I helped(:

That looks simple enough! Let me help:



1. First, apply a bronzer all around your face so that your get the glow the woman in the picture had. When applying it, dab it on, don't wipe it on. This way, you get more coverage, plus it won't smear.

2. Second, apply a peach colored blush to your cheekbones and blend it up to your temples. Make sure the blush is evenly spread so that it's not like a huge red dot on your cheeks.

3. Take a chocolate brown eyeshadow and swipe it on and just above your creases. It also helps if you have a double colored eyeshadow pallet with a dark brown and a lighter color. If you do, take the lighter color and swipe it just above where you applied the dark brown and blend it in up to your brows (it highlights your eyes and makes them pop!). If you don't have a lighter brown, that's also fine.

4. Fourth, apply eyeliner on your top lids and create a "cat's eye". It will work best if you have liquid eyeliner. To create a cat's eye, make sure you've already lined your top lid, then when you get to where your eye ends, continue on for a few millimeters then flick your wrist up towards your temple slightly so there's an arc. If you want to get creative, add a second cat's eye directly below it (I think it's going to be a new trend pretty soon!).

5. Next, take regular stick eyeliner and line your waterline (the top of your bottom eyelid where tears form).

6. After that, take any non-clumping mascara you like and brush both your top and bottom lashes.

7. Lastly, take peach colored lip gloss and lightly stroke it on your top lip. Rub your top and bottom lips together so it blends and covers evenly. This works better than glossing both your top and bottom lips because when you do gloss both, it tends to gets really thick, chunky, and sticky. This way keeps the color on but doesn't become a burden (and in my own opinion, it looks better!)

Simple!

First things first, get a light mineral foundation for some natural looking coverage. I recommend Bare Minerals. Apply that lightly all over your face and on the top of your neck.

Next you want to apply either a bronzer or a blush. She looks like she has a peachy blush on, but if your skin tone isn't that dark, I recommend a light pink. Smile in the mirror and apply the blush lightly on the apples of your cheeks(the little bumps that appear when you smile).

Now you're ready for your eyes. Get a black liquid eyeliner, some makeup remover, and a Q-tip.

Pull the edge of your eye towards your ear. It will stretch the skin, making it easier to apply. Take the edge of the eyeliner brush and make little dashes as close to your lashes as possible. When you have made it over you're whole eyelid, go over it lightly to make sure there are no gaps. Clean up any stray marks to make the line perfectly straight.

Now you need a kohl black pencil liner. Making sure its sharpened first, apply it onto the outer 1/3 of your bottom eyelid, again, as close to your lashes as possible. Clean it up, and pick up your eyeshadow! Take a black or dark gray eyeshadow on a Q-tip, and lightly smudge the top line on your eye. Next you want a small brush, or you could just use the foam applicator that comes with most eyeshadow kits.

Sweep a steel gray color all over your lid, making sure to stop at the crease (the part just below your brow bone).

It looks like she has a little bit of pink eyeshadow on the top, so take a medium sized brush, and sweep that color in the crease.

Next you want a light color, like a beige for dark skin, or a vanilla for light skin. Sweep that on your brow bone.

Now you're going to take your mascara (preferably black or brown black). Wipe off most of it on a tissue, then apply to your top eyelashes. If you feel like you need more, repeat once. Apply to the bottom lashes by positioning the wand horizontally, and pulling straight down. Do not apply a second coat on the bottom.

You're almost done! Take a neutral lip gloss and sweep on your lips, remembering to clean up around the edges (no one looks good in smudged lip gloss).

This should work! I hope I helped! ;)

Put foundation on, then blush.



EYE MAKE UP:



Put a light color toward the center and near the tear duct. (Corner of eye closest to nose)

Then blend a darker color on the other corner and blend it toward the center. Put the darker color in the crease of your eye.



After that you can put a nude color under your eyebrow area (brow bone). Then put that color also by the tear duct. Finish by putting eyeliner around the top and lower part of your eyes. Also put mascara on your eyelashes.





Hopefully this will help, but there's tutorials on Youtube and other sites that'll break it down even more. Just do a little research if anything. Good luck.

try getting a four color eye shadow kit like this theyre easy and helpful

these colors look sort of close to the pic too :P



apply the eyeshadow how it says, then get black liquid liner and draw it in a swoop directly over your eyelashes, it takes awhile to master! then apply pencil liner to your bottom lid

like that on the water line between your lower lashes and eyeball.



last apply mascara to the top and bottom lashes



for your face find a good MATCHING foundation (powders are best if you dont ahve any spots to cover up) and apply that all over, then get a peachy blush and finally rose or nude colored lipstick, or gloss.



good luck!
