We shine a light on Beyoncé’s flawless glowing skin and how you can replicate the look in the comfort of your own home.
Synonymous with looking flawless and sporting a perennially just-back-from-vacation glow, Beyoncé is well aware of the glam some (or lots) of glow can bring to your look. And although Queen Bey might have a bevy of hair and make-up artists at her disposal, there are a few signature tricks we can share that will help you shine.
1.
Prep eyelids with a pressed powder
Once you’ve applied your hydrating or light-reflecting foundation, the next step is to prime the lids with a pressed powder or primer to ensure that your eye make-up does not crease or wear off.
2.
Line the lower lash line with a bronze eye shadow
Applying a metallic eye shadow along the lower lash line creates a softer, more diffused line that makes your eyes pop and appear bigger.
3.
Using an eye shadow brush, apply a gold metallic eye shadow to your lid
When it comes to applying the metallic shadow, pack the most pigment at the centre of the lid, and then soften the edges by blending the shadow out slightly past your crease.
4.
Apply a highlighter to the inner corner of the eye as well as along the lower lash line
Strategically placed highlighter is your secret weapon to making your eyes look bigger and brighter. Adding the highlighter to the inner corners and lower lash line is particularly helpful if your eyes are small or close-set; this helps create the illusion of more space between the eyes, making them look larger.
5.
With a fan brush, add a powder highlighter in a ‘C’ shape from your temple to your brow bone, along the bridge of your nose and along your Cupid’s bow
A fan brush should be your go-to tool for applying highlighter to the areas of the face that the sun naturally hits, as it’s great for feathering the product, which gives it more of an airbrushed finish.
6.
Apply mascara with a small fan brush
A small fan brush will ensure you are able to deposit product close to the base of the lashes resulting in fuller and longer lashes, both on top and bottom.
7.
Line your waterline with a nude pencil
Lining your waterline with a nude pencil instantly makes your eyes appear bigger and less tired.
8.
Complete your golden glowing look with a nude gloss
A moisturising gloss with a nude wash of colour complements this look best, as it’s sheer enough not to draw too much attention away from your glowing make-up and it will also add an element of luminosity to your pout.GET THE LOOK
