I love doing fun makeup looks and this is one of my favorite…POP ART…it’s easy and fun, well at least for me. I broke it down to help you get this look.

EYES

Apply Sephora Brand Buildable Cover Concealer to prep lids before applying the golden peach shade from NARS Highlighting/Bronzing Blush Duo in Hungry Heart to the upper eyelids. Next, line inside the lower lash lines with Make Up For Ever Aqua Eyes in White.

Use a clean mascara wand to coat lower lashes with Make Up For Ever Flash Color in White 10. Work lots of Bare Escentuals Buxom Lash mascara on to the upper lashes before applying Make Up For Ever Lashes Strip # 25026. Perfect brows with the Anastasia Highlighting Brow Kit.

CHEEKS

It’s super simple to create, layer a bright pink of Sephora Blush Me Mono Blush from the cheekbone down, concentrating the color around the apples. If you add to much color on the cheeks apply foundation over your blush to tone it down. The end result should look equal parts hot and healthy.

LIPS

Use Dior Addict Shine in Pink Lust topped off with Make Up For Ever Glossy Full Couleur in #4 for candy-coated shine.

Some of the newest makeup shades are bold (red blush), luscious (caramel gloss)—and even bizarre (mauve everywhere). These shades that can be worn by all, below you will find a cheat sheet to help you when selecting a new color.
