The girl on the right...her makeup has that shiny/dewy look to it..could someone giveme some tips how to acheive this

Im only familiar with MAC products since im mainly a mac junkie.

FACE - Try Mineralized satin finish with some a pea sized amount of strobe cream on your face it will give you gorgeous dewy skin, its my daily routine. I know its expensive but that stuff can last 2 years, i reccomend a skunk brush that looks like mac 187, it applys foundation like a dream. And definately use a bronzer on your cheecks, depending on your skin color you can use golden or refined golden bronzer.

thanks. so i should put strobe cream on my face and then put the foundation on or should i mix the 2 together and then apply it to my face?

 

[xxManBeaterxx]

OH umm.. First you put on the mineralized liquid foundation. And maybe set it with a light coverage powder, and then you put like a large pea sized amount of strobe cream on your finger rub it in your hands a bit and apply it on your fore head and cheeks.

Ah come to think of it, i would just play around with strobe cream. If you want you can mix the foundation and a little strobe cream together. see what works best. But i can get oily if u put too much.

Well, you may not want this particular opinion of mine, but if *I* were you, I would play down that look a bit, 'cause to me it SCREAMS hussy...

That being said, I too LOVE the luminous look. Just a lil' less than that pic

Good advice was given about the foundation...you def. want something shimmery like MAC's Mineralized Foundation OR MAC's HyperReal foundation.

Then, add something like Benefit's MOON BEAM. STILA also makes an especially good product for shimmer, comprable, or better than even, Benefit.

STILA also makes a luminous foundation that had excellent reviews in "Don't Go To The Cosmetics Counter Without Me". In fact, I would love to give it a try.

When you're done with that, you may want to add a LITTLE shimmer powder (BECCA makes a great pressed shimmer powder) OR a little shimmery blush (cream blushes are great for this type of look).

Just be careful...If things start looking too heavy, drop one or two of those products. Maybe even find ONE or TWO that you really like..Sometimes just one luminizing product is enough to give you that look.

Let us know what you decide to get!!

I LOVE luminosity!

thanks guys im gonna look into both of your recommendations

 

[brittdelano]

do you suggest i get the moon beam or high beam and whats the difference really?

 

[j_absinthe]

The difference between Moon Beam and High Beam: "One is a satiny silver pink while the other is a moonlit golden pink."

I think the "dewy" look is something she achieved after a hard night of pole dancing.

Not hating on my strippers of course, we all need to get paid...

 

[brittdelano]

LOL that could be it too but it seems to look like that in most of her photos. i think she over does it but i am interested in seeing how to get a similar look

 

[brittdelano]

sorry double post

 

[Tashona Helena]

Wow she's like a barbie in that last photo.

A drugstore rec would be L'Oreal's True Match Bronzing...I don't know the exact name, but they're liquid, in small little tubes that look like the foundation bottles. I use them to luminate my face. For some reason they're on sale in some drugstores (Walgreens/Happy Harry's..I saw them cheap in there one day in the city i work in). They come in all different colors and you can find the one that works best for you according to your skin tone (cool/warm/neutral).

seriously, the lip colors are NOT working for her.

 

[Repunzel]

she's defiently had work done.she looks so fake.i like her contacts tho.

 

[emeraldjewels]

i love prescriptive magic liquid. you can put it on right on top of your foundation for glowing cheek bones etc.. or mix a little with your foundation for an all over glow.
