My classic makeover will recreate the singer's trademark flick-and-glitter eye makeup with a pop of colour on the lips. The makeover I'd like to give her still features glitter, but there's more of it! I'd give her a dramatic glittery smokey eye. Yep. I totally would.

You Will Need (9 things)

  • Avon's cream to powder Foundation
  • Blusher
  • Highlighter
  • Lipstick
  • Cosmetic Glitter glue
  • Cosmetic Glitter
  • Liquid Eyeliner
  • Mascara
  • Eyeshadows

Steps (3 steps, 40 minutes)

  1. 1

    Because this is a festival look rather than red carpet glam, I went fora basic base of Avon's cream to powder powder foundation for light coverage. For a breezy flush of colour, I used a light swish of mid pink blush on the apples of my cheeks. To finish the skin, I swept on a little highlighter over the tops of my cheeks and the the bridge of my nose.

  2. 2

    Now for the eyes! The fun bit. I started with winked black liquid liner against the upper lashline to define. The pictures show a patchy bit but I swear I didn't notice it in the mirror. Anyway, I'm sure you'll do a better job. Then I used an angled liner brush to mix some cosmetic sealant with some cheap cosmetic glitter and patted it under my lower lashline, right up to the tear duct. Be careful at this stage not to get any in your eye, because that would be a highly uncomfortable experience. Finish with a sweep or two of mascara.

    Finally, the lips. For a fresh pop of pink, I slicked on a coat of Barbara Daly plumping lipstick in 'french kiss'.
