Love at first application... Kat Von D foundation ❤❤

It was love at first application!!! ❤❤ Even though I'm a makeup artist I struggle just like a lot of women trying to find that perfect match. Color,texture and finish play a big role in my final decision. It is a full coverage foundation so you only need 2 small pea size amounts for your entire face! If you have dry skin this may not be the right foundation due to the matte finish. You can try mixing it with a tinted moisturizer or just use it on your problem areas. I haven't tried her concealer but if its anything like the foundation, it will definitely be a future purchase! I purchased color #62, it's a bit dark but i mixed it with a lighter concealer and i do plan on getting some sun so its perfect!

Contouring... Look like you've had plastic surgery w/out spending $$$$$

So this is a project that i have been working on for a couple weeks. I wanted to show the difference that makeup makes, especially when people are concerned about specific things like wanting their nose to looking more slender, or make them look like they have high cheek bones.

So instead of spending money on a plastic surgeon just invest your money on a good makeup artist :) 

On the model i used for this project, i decided to do a "semi natural" look on her. Earth tone
shadows were used on her and just concentrated on features like eyebrows, contouring her nose and using a lighter concealer to add a little brightness to certain areas. Below are more before and after pictures showing the same type of technique used. ENJOY!!
