An Eles Makeup Look.

Hi lovelies,

It's been a while since I shared my last makeup look; I've been longing to share some but things have been so busy, I've fallen terribly behind!

Some time ago, I was given the chance to recreate the Eles Winter Look. I had so much fun with it, I decided to see what I could create on my own accord! I've been really into red lipsticks of late, so naturally, I decided to create a neutral look that centred around a statement lip.

Consider yourselves warned as this post will be a bit picture-heavy!


Eles products used for this look.
I used eyeshadows in Antique White, Tourmaline, Titanium and Terra Peach, brow sculpt in Brunette, Bronzer Duo in Fresco Bronze and Micro Bubble Lipstick in Cranberry. Antique White and Terra Peach are matte shadows and can be found here, while Tourmaline and Titanium are shimmer shadows and can be found here.

Keep reading after the jump!

I first applied a base of Clinique CC cream, then dusted some mineral powder foundation over to set it. Then, all I did was apply Antique White in the inner eye corner, Terra Peach all over the eyelid (taking it up to the crease), and then shade the outer half of the lid with Tourmaline, blending through the crease. Lastly, I added a bit of definition in the outermost corner by blending a little Titanium in a little 'V' shape at the outer eye corner. I also brushed a little under the lower lashline for added definition. I finished the look with some black liquid liner and added handmade false lashes from Helen Dowsley (these are ethically sourced)!

Brows were groomed using the Brow Sculpt (in this case I added the gel first and then the powder), and contoured using the darker shade of the Fresco Bronze palette. I used the paler shade as blush in this look.

The finishing touch was applying Cranberry on my lips, I've lost my heart to this lipstick as it's a gorgeous, bright scarlet that looks great in both daytime as well as at night! It's also really comfortable to wear and doesn't dry my lips out.







I hope you enjoyed that look, lovelies! The blog will be a bit quiet as I'm leaving for Bali in 2 days, but feel free to check back every now and then as I've scheduled a couple of posts to run while I'm away, or you can have a read through the archives! You can also follow me on Instagram or check out my Webstagram widget on the right toolbar  (-->) to see what I'll be up to on my holiday. ♥

Have you tried Eles before? Are you keen to try any of the products mentioned above?

This look ties in with the Neutral theme over at Antipodean Beauties, so I'm hooking up the linky below!

Much love,
MM.
