«First you have to sculpt the volumes of the faceusing three simple products, namely bronzer, highlighter and blush and putting into practice the contouring technique. If the products have been applied during the day, no problem, they can be reapplied by increasing their intensity ».
«For a sophisticated contouring suitable for the hours and lights of the sunset, my advice is to apply the bronzer along the lower part of the cheekbone, temples, sides of the nose, on the hairline and on the jaw. So, blending with oblique brushstrokes from the inside out, you will get an elegant make-up and a lifted look.
At this point you can move on to the application of a blush with intense and dark tones. Finally, for to top it all off, you can tap a bit of highlighter in strategic areas such as the bridge of the nose, the central part of the forehead, the eyebrow arch, that of Cupid and the collarbones.
Eye make-up: from day to night, pay attention to mascara
“For retouch eye makeup You can correct the smudges caused by the heat during the day with a little one cotton swabs and, if necessary, corrector. At this point, after having cleaned the area, you can outline the eye with one long-lasting black pencil and lightly blend the line“.
«If you want to get a bright eye makeup just apply a sparkling or metallic eyeshadow to the center of the eyelid.
Last touch, mascara. But be careful: in this case it is essential to eliminate the possible lumps that have formed during the day from the one applied in the morning ».
Lip makeup, from gloss to lipstick
«As for the lips, the best way to go from one day makeup to one evening is to use i lipsticks. If you love a luminous finish, apply a first bright creamy lipstick but not too intense – so as not to put it in competition with eye makeup – and then to give even more brightness apply a slightly shimmering gloss ».
While, if you prefer the dull colors “is critical apply lipstick flawlessly, after having defined the outline with a pencil, creating a perfect matching », he specifies Simone Cascino.
The most suitable colors for transformation
“There are no more suitable colors to make make-up evolve, but the more intense colors, for the evening, certainly work better”.
“If we want to make the eyes protagonists, a black pencil will perform better than a brown one and so on. Then I recommend the sparkling metallic eyeshadows, in golden, rosy and mauve colors, which have the ability to attract a lot of attention and apply quickly.
For the lips, yes, on the other hand, the green light goes to red, pink and mauve, but also some very hot nudes ».
The must-have products that cannot be missing
“Surely as regards the eyes, in summer beauty they can never be missing: mascara and pencil or kajal eyeliner to be used in the internal rhyme ».
“A lipstick, which in the absence of a blush can be used to give liveliness to the cheeks, and a gloss for the lips. Finally, the face can never be missing loose powderfor a retouch fast and mattifying »concludes the expert.
