As soon as this beauty walked into my studio my jaw dropped.
Aly is perfection.
It was kind of sad to even put makeup on her:)
But alas variety is the spice of life.
I wanted to give her a some rosey cheeks and lips and glam up her eyes just a bit for fun.
Beautiful photos by Jessica Janae Photograhy
Her makeup was easy peasy.
I used IIID Foundation in Wheat and Stone (The wheat is nice and yellow so you can highlight without making dark and/or red skin look ashy- each shade covers a wide range of skin tones:) and Ruby blush in the apples of her cheeks and on her lips
I shaped up her brows a little bit and filled them lightly with Anastasia Brow Pencil in Ebony
Next I used Colour Pop on her lids and at her lower lash line in On The Rocks to give her a little bit a glistening.
Finished her look with Too Faced Better Than Sex mascara.

March 9, 2015 at 7:21 amThe make up is gorgeous, but she doesn’t need it, she’s perfect without it.

March 9, 2015 at 10:33 amLOL, none of us really need it, though, do we? We can all dress in sweatpants and t-shirts all of the time too, right? And just wash our hair and let it air dry, put it up in a pony tail? Better yet, shave it all off!
Cara
March 9, 2015 at 10:44 amhaha she definitely looks plenty beautiful without it, it is fun though to try different looks!
Anna
March 11, 2015 at 7:06 amI didn’t mean it that way. Cara’s out-of-this-world makeovers add to a person’s beauty. In this case, somehow makeup takes away from her personality. Without makeup, she’s perfect; with something added, she’s a beautiful girl like a hundred other beautiful girls. And let’s just say the rest of the comment is moot.

March 9, 2015 at 8:15 amSo pretty! Silly question- what face shape is she? I’ve struggled with identifying mine but I think it’s the same as hers as I have a similarly prominent jaw and chin with the rest of my face being pretty much the same width. Also- how did you HAC to remove some of the prominence from her chin?
Cara
March 9, 2015 at 10:49 amIt’s not a silly question at all! It’s actually a very unique face shape. I don’t think it’s exactly a rectangle/square but I HACed it pretty much the same as that, around the edges of her face and chin I focused contour there to soften a bit and the cheek contour was rounded like in this image http://www.maskcara.com/2013/11/12/squarier/

March 9, 2015 at 9:09 amLove your makovers! With this one its just enough to highlight her already beautiful features! I’ve been following all your posts and trying your tips on myself the past few weeks (since I discovered your blog) and I’ve been getting so many compliments! Not only that, but the hair tutorials have really helped me style my hair in ways I’ve always wanted to. Love this makeover and love your blog!! Xoxo
Sarah
March 9, 2015 at 9:10 amWow. She is perfection! Your makeup job and brow shaping are lovely, but I think she’s actually prettier without makeup! I love makeup, so I can’t believe I’m actually saying this! Wowzer!
Ashley Lynn

March 9, 2015 at 3:30 pmShe is gorgeous! I love the natural glow you gave her in this look- I feel like it accentuates her natural & unique beauty rather than tries to make her look like a clone of everyone else like some makeup looks can do….You rock, Cara! 🙂

March 9, 2015 at 5:14 pmHow do you go about making it look so flawless without looking “overdone”? I have a girl with acne and trying to figure out coverage!? Advice? I ordered it all for my makeup kit and am IN LOVE with this makeup!

Sarah
March 10, 2015 at 5:49 amI second that! I’m 48 and would love to see women with our skin done with your makeup-and just made up in general. My issue is the highlight seems to sit on top of my skin and appear too visible. I use moisturizer and primer,,,not sure what else to do.
This before/after is gorgeous, as always Cara.
