SPRING WEEKEND MAKE-UP LOOK - Using INK Cosmetics

Mistress's of Saigon Editorial Photo Shoot

I recently had the privilege of working with the amazingly, talented Leonard Poteat.  He and I often bounce ideas off one another for a creative cultivation of make-up and photography art concepts.  A few weeks ago, he thought up the idea of an Asian themed mistress-like shoot.  One where the women were in some way, emotionally torn and left behind by their lover.  We called the editorial... "Mistress's of Saigon."

Special thanks to Models: Dyan Lee and Danny Ly, little Livi for all her assistant support and of course Leonard Poteat!  I had an awesome time!

TORCHED! Get the Look with INK Cosmetics

We are loving Amanda Thomas' jewelry!  This vintage and simplistic feel set our fashion senses on fire!  We wanted to share this "Torched" make-up look with you and share our tips on how to achieve it.


Get the Look:

1.  Start with clean and moisturized skin.

2.  Use INK...Cosmetics Corrector Duo in Special/Light.  Add concealer under the eyes and on any dark areas of the skin.

3.  Add a touch of INK...Foundation Stick on the bridge of the nose, sides of the face, forehead, chin and neck.  Blend product with a foundation brush in circular motions.

4.  Set foundation with INK...Oil Control Powder (great for every skin tone).

5.  Tap INK...Shadow Base on the lids.

6.  Apply our bold effect/pressed pigment shadow in TORCH with a wide shadow brush.  I like to pat the product on so it is precisely in place.

Torch is available at www.shopinkcosmetics.com On SALE Now!  (Torch - top row center color)

7.  Line your top lash line with INK...Jet Black Pencil Liner.

8.  Top eyes with INK...Black Mascara.
