  Step 1

  Eyes
  Subtly defined wide-apart eyes
  1 Use a natural brow powder to create a neat arch two-thirds of the way along the eye, tapering it to a point.
  2 Prime the lid to create a smooth, neutral base. Use a white or nude eyeliner along the inner rim to brighten and open up the eyes.
  3 Brush a nude powder eyeshadow over the lid and up to the browbone. Then define the socket with a soft pearl taupe eyeshadow. Blend it from the lashes at the outer third of the eye, up and out towards the bottom of the brow. Blend a little eyeshadow under the bottom lashes to create a shadow.
  4 Draw a fine line of black pencil or gel eyeliner along the upper lash line, starting at the inner corner and taking it horizontally just beyond the end of the lashes at the outer corner.
  5 Curl the lashes and coat them with mascara. Apply corner lashes to emphasize the outer part of the eyes.

  Step 2

  Skin
  Polished skin and sculpted cheeks
  6 Use a primer to create a smooth base. Then blend medium-coverage foundation where you need it and cover any under-eye circles or blemishes with concealer. Set with translucent powder, polishing it well with a large soft brush.
  7 Contour the cheeks by blending matte bronzer just under the cheekbones and along the hairline.
  8 Blend crème highlighter along the cheekbones, the bridge of the nose and under the arches of the brows.

  Step 3

  Lips
  Full glossy Hollywood-red lips
  9 Exfoliate the lips and then prime them with my Lip Perfector or foundation.
  10 Outline the lips with a waxy lip liner that matches your lipstick. Fill in the shape and blend it with a lip brush.
  11 Paint red lipstick over the top with the lip brush and then add a dab of red gloss and blend.
