THE METALLIC LIP TUTORIAL

SKIN PREP
Hydrate skin with a regimen of two lightweight moisturizers for a non-greasy, glowing complexion. Chanel’s newest contains only ten ingredients, making it ideal for those with sensitive skin. Follow with Hydra Beauty Micro Serum dabbed on the undereye region.

COMPLEXION PERFECTOR
I love this foundation for its ability to provide buildable coverage. Transfer a small amount of the creamy formulation to the back of your hand, then dip a Beauty Blender dampened with Chanel’s Hydra Beauty Mist into the foundation and apply to the face with a stippling motion.

ANGULAR EFFECT
Defined cheekbones are just as integral to this look as the red lip. The easily blendable formulation of the Bronzing Makeup Base from Chanel allows you to instantly sculpt out the cheekbone by applying the creamy bronzer in the hollows of your cheeks and blending outward to your ear.

BLUE MOOD
I first created an elongated cat eye with Eyeko Eye Do Liquid Eye Liner. To modernize the look, I rimmed the bottom line with Chanel Marine eye pencil.

TURQUOISE TRANSFORMATION
To further update the eye, I tapped on green shadow to transform the Chanel Marine blue into more of an high-impact turquoise hue.

LASHES WITH OOMPH
Two strokes of Chanel Inimitable Volume mascara is all you need for lush, amplified lashes to complement this cat eye look.

CRIMSON CALLING
Every bust of Nefertiti showcases her penchant for bright red lipstick. To achieve the queenly effect at home, apply Chanel Rouge Allure in Captivante directly to the lips for a high-impact wash of color, then layer a sweep of MAC’s Pro Pigment in Electric Coral for a hint of metallic, light-catching iridescence.
