Vamp it up! How to get the perfect dramatic natural makeup look
Experimenting with natural makeup is something that too few of us do – but if you want to try vamping up your style, a professional has given some top tips for a dramatic look.
Speaking to the Daily Mail, celebrity makeup artist Rozelle Parry advised how to get sultry eyes without going over the top.
First, choose a bronze natural eye shadow and sweep across the lid, following the crease of your eye.
Next, pick a darker, complementary brown shade and work from the inner corner of your eye to around three-quarters along the top of the lid, up to the brow bone, creating a dramatic shadow effect, and add lots of natural mascara to define your peepers.
For the lips, select a bold scarlet or coral-hued natural lipstick and brush on, to create an intense shade.
Finally, simply pull your hair back from your face – let your makeup do the talking!
Last week, Stylist highlighted the rise of the lip crayon and the dramatic matte effects they offer – making it perfect to create a striking look.
