Anna Priadka Nars Global Artist created fresh, polished skin perfectly offset by an ombré statement lip.

HOW TO

1 Start by mixing two types of Illuminator, Copacabana and Hot Sand directly onto the skin. Use fingers to apply to the highest points on the face where the light would naturally touch – the cheek bones and bridge of the nose.

2 Create a subtle contour using a shade that’s one tone darker than your skin. We used Velvet Matte Foundation Stick in Macao Apply straight onto the skin in one stroke and use fingers to blend in. Always blend the product upwards for maximum lift.

3 Using the Soft Matte Concealer, conceal under the eye area, reducing the appearance of dark shadows.

5 Apply Audacious Mascara to both the upper and lower lashes. The innovative wand has 200 individual teeth to pick up the hairs and create fluttery lashes. Use the crown of the brush to tease lashes into place.

6 Apply Powermatte Lip Pigment in Light My Fire to lips, all over using the precision wand to create the perfect shape. Don’t forget to line the inside of the lips first, taking the pigment all the way to the edge.

1 A classic feline flick is always a great partner to a bold lip. To create the perfect line use Eyeliner Stylo in Carpates.

2 A bold lip can be easier to pull off with a tonal flush of colour on the cheeks. Add a dusting of your usual blush on the apples of your cheeks or use a suits-all shade like Blush in Orgasm.

3 For a juicy, evening finish, add a slick of clear gloss on top of your opaque colour. Lip Gloss in Triple X is non-sticky and amplifies bold colour beautifully.
