Description

A look inspired by the tragic iconic beautiful Warhol superstar Candy Darling. Candy wore many different looks - I've decided to go for the pretty Marilyn Monroe -esque look with a dash of 1920s that she liked to go for..

Instructions

  1. Small 114246 2f2016 05 12 235639 fullscreen%2bcapture%2b11052016%2b002332.bmp

    Put your hair in rollers. Apply a contour to the troughs of your face (temples, nose, cheek bones). I’m using a cream foundation – KETT FOUNDATION SHADE 11

  2. Small 114246 2f2016 05 12 235841 fullscreen%2bcapture%2b11052016%2b002343.bmp

    The old glue stick brow covering technique – use a glue stick (I’m using PRITT STICK mixed with a bit of water).

  3. Small 114246 2f2016 05 13 000115 fullscreen%2bcapture%2b11052016%2b002435.bmp

    Apply a foundation. I’m using ESTEE LAUDER STAY IN PLACE FOUNDATION

    Use a stick concealer to cover up the brows. I can’t remember what concealer I used here, but any good concealer will do

    Now it’s time to draw in your new eyebrows. I’m using a mixture of a NYX FELT BROW LINER and BENEFIT BROWZINGS. Candy had quite fine and fair brows – a little like Clara Bow. I went a little bit darker than Candy as I just don’t suit fair brows

    Take a brown colour and apply it all over the eye area, including underneath. Then take a slightly darker shade of brown to enhance the outer corner and inner corner of the lid. I’m using QUITE NATURAL PAINTPOT BY MAC and MEDIUM BROWN EYESHADOW BY SHU UEMURA

  7. Small 114246 2f2016 05 13 000436 fullscreen%2bcapture%2b11052016%2b002749.bmp

    Use a very dark grey. I wouldn’t suggest going for pure black as I feel this would be too harsh. I’m using TYPOGRAPHIC EYESHADOW BY MAC. Apply this to further enhance your eye contours. TIP: TILT YOUR HEAD BACK TO GET THAT CONTOUR NICE AND HIGH IN THE SOCKET.

  8. Small 114246 2f2016 05 13 000519 fullscreen%2bcapture%2b11052016%2b003225.bmp

    Apply a highlight shade to highlight your brow bone space. I’m using KETT FOUNDATION SHADE 1

  9. Small 114246 2f2016 05 13 000607 fullscreen%2bcapture%2b11052016%2b003312.bmp

    Apply a white eyeshadow to your lid. I’m using one of the PEARL EYESHADOWS BY MUA

  10. Small 114246 2f2016 05 13 000635 fullscreen%2bcapture%2b11052016%2b003341.bmp

    Dab a colour of your choice all over the top of your eye makeup (on the top part, not underneath) – I’m using a light blue colour from one of my SLEEK PALETTES

  11. Small 114246 2f2016 05 13 000720 fullscreen%2bcapture%2b11052016%2b003501.bmp

    Line your eyes with a liquid or cream black liner of your choice (I can’t remember what I used, but so long as it’s cream or liquid). Make sure it is not too thick. Line the upper lid and the outer corner of the bottom lash line

  12. Small 114246 2f2016 05 13 000916 fullscreen%2bcapture%2b11052016%2b003539.bmp

    Apply some mascara to tops…

    …and bottoms

  14. Small 114246 2f2016 05 13 001050 fullscreen%2bcapture%2b11052016%2b003736.bmp

    Next apply some false lashes for top and bottoms – ideally avoid ones that are heavy looking and go for delicate looking ones

  15. Small 114246 2f2016 05 13 001123 fullscreen%2bcapture%2b11052016%2b003757.bmp

    Apply some blusher to your cheeks – the rosier and pinker the better! I’m using LA FEMME NO1 BLUSH

  16. Small 114246 2f2016 05 13 001205 fullscreen%2bcapture%2b11052016%2b003844.bmp

    Lip colour – either go for red or pink.. I went for pink. I’m using FUSCHIA BY REVLON

    Time to remove those rollers
