The other day, I came across this picture of AnnaLynne McCord’s make-up focusing on nude lips and a soft smokey eye that really made me want to try it out. I particularly liked the reddish-brown matte eyeshadow she has on the eyelids as well as the face contouring, very subtle yet very elegant.

I started with the contour : I highlighted the cheekbones, under-eye area, eyebrow area and around the mouth. Using a darker shade, I sculpted the nose, cheeks, forehead and jawline in order to achieve a similar look to my reference picture. I listed all the products I used down below.

The eye make-up is pretty simple, just followed my natural eye shape and pulled the eyeshadow out a bit on the corners, trying to keep a straight line but very well blended. TIP: The M.A.C. 217 brush is perfect for this!
