Manish Arora used the term "futuristic baroque" to describe his Spring collection. I fell in love with this dramatic and futuristic concept.  Here are the easy backstage instructions to achieve this look at home.

Step 1:  Clean and moisturize your face.

Step 2:  Dab concealer on the "needed only" areas!  You don't need a lot of foundation and concealer for  this look.

Step 3:  Start eyes first. Using matte shadow colors you will need: cream or off-white, navy, tangerine or bright orange.

Cream: Swipe a cream colored matte eye shadow all over your lid.

Navy: Ensuring you stay above the eyelid, use an angled shadow brush to apply the navy shadow from the center of your nose and sweep outward toward the outside corner of your eye. Be sure to follow the contour and shape of your eyes.

Wait to add the tangerine color.

Step 4:  Tape off the areas you want skin to show through.  See image below.

Step 5: 
Tangerine:  Use a small shadow brush FIRST and add the tangerine color above the navy shadow.  Blend up towards the brow.  Add a little more near the nose area to the brow line.  

Step 6:  Then use a foundation brush like the one you see below and add the same tangerine color in the areas you want the color to pop.

Step 7:  Peel away the tape and add mascara to both top and bottom lashes.

Step 8:  Add a gold and clear inspired decal to the forehead.

Step 9:  Finish the look with an orange red lipstick.  Use a matching lip liner for a crisp outline and apply the lipstick with a lip brush.

Step 10:  Go out and have FUN! I would love to see your photos so please email them to me at aycastillo15@aol.com
