Before you start: Skin prep
Before you start to think about applying makeup, it’s important to take good care of your skincleaning and moisturizing. These are vital steps that yield the best final results.
Before applying makeup, cleans the face and neck using a cleansing water and cotton pads.
Next, face and neck. Apply by dabbing a bit on a few key sections—the forehead, chin, cheeks—now rub the moisturizer in, rubbing upwards and moving from the center out. spends a few minutes making sure YOU really blended the moisturizer into skin. One of many tips is to moisturize the entire neck, including the back; this keeps the front nice and taut! Don’t forget to always moisturize your lips using the lip balm of your choice.

We can’t recommend washing your face and neck with the Clarisonic Blue Cleansing System enough. It’s rapidly become one of our must-haves with a marked improvement in our skin.
Daytime Makeup
Emma recreates the makeup she usually does for my daytime interviews and appearances.
Step 1: Foundation
When looking for the right foundation, try and match it to your neck rather than your face as you want your face color to blend seamlessly between the two.
Emma applies a few dabs of Jemma Kidd’s Light As Air Foundation to the forehead, nose, cheeks, and chin. Notice Emma puts the foundation on her hand first and uses her fingers to apply it and work it onto Kate’s skin. Always start from the center and work outwards.
Products Used
used Jemma Kidd Light As Air Foundation #2 Light on Kate.
Step 2: Concealer
Emma puts some more concealer on her hand and uses a brush to apply layers under the eyes, on the chin, in the t-zone, and around the nose—in the winter, these are the places where people need the most coverage. As always, go slow, and don’t use it all up at once.

—a nice mushroom-y shade that is perfect for Kate’s coloring.
Step 5: Mascara
puts a smudge of mascara straight onto her hands and uses a tiny, flat-ended brush to apply. She starts at the root and moves to the tip of each eyelash, making sure to define every single lash. Dark brown is great for rich, daytime color.
now uses the Mascara brush to coat every single lash. Remember, work in layers and don’t overload your brush. The idea is to build up slowly!

Jouer makes a Mascara that comes in a rich brown that Emma recommends for daytime makeup:
Step 6: Eyebrows
Another must that Emma insists on is filling in the eyebrows as it’s the best way to frame the face. Choose a color that is slightly paler than your natural color. Fill in your eyebrows in light feathery strokes, making sure to accentuate and elongate your features as much as possible.
Now, using a clean mascara wand (could be from an old makeup set that you’re not using anymore), brush out the hairs.
Products Used
comes in a variety of shades and with a mascara wand, which is a must for defining brows.
Step 7: Cheeks
Emma likes to use a cream blush for a daytime look. She uses her hands to dab it on the apple of Kate’s cheeks and then blends up and out.
Products Used
For the cream based daytime powder that IS recommends, is a good option. On Kate, Emma used aplum shade like “Marionette 01.”
Step 8: Lips
Emma always mixes lipstick to get exactly the color she wants. First she dabs Kate’s lips directly with the stick. Then, she mixes the colors directly on her fingers, alternating lipsticks, and applies directly on Kate’s lips.

Step 9: Final Touches
Using a thick brush, dust the T-Zone with a loose setting powder. This sets the makeup and reduces shine.

Transition into Night time
For my red carpet makeup in
Venice, Emma only had 20 minutes to prepare, so she built on the daytime
makeup she’d already done. Here’s how Emma transitioned on Kate.
Step 1: Eyeliner
Squeeze some liquid liner directly onto your hand and with a brush,
apply to the very top of the eyelashes—starting from the middle of the
eye and going out. Mix black and brown for a rich color. Use a slightly
bigger brush or a Q-tip to blend.
Emma now draws a line with an eye pencil just above the line she’s made already with the liquid liner. Here you want to work across the eye, not just from the middle. Using a brush, blend and extend out.
is a good option for night time makeup.

Jouer’s Shimmer Eyeliner comes in a great variety of colors.
is a good option for night time makeup.
Step 2: Eyelashes
Now use the pencil and blend in right beneath the root of the lashes.
Ellis Faas’ Ellis Mascara is also highly recommended.
Use one coat of black mascara to make the eyes pop. As before, build slowly and in layers, from the roots to the ends. For a dewy eye look, put a bit more on the middle lashes (this rounds the eye).
Step 3: Lips
Use a lipliner that is one shade darker than the lipstick of your choice. Be sure that your pencil is nice and sharp. Start with the cupid’s bow of the lips, then the bottom lip and slowly extend out to the sides.
When you use lip liner, rather than using your fingers, it’s good to use a small, flat brush to apply lipstick for precision’s sake.
This one’s been passed on for generations: Use a tissue to blot. Finish up with a dab of lip gloss. Emma uses her fingers for this, too.
Products Used
makes a good lipliner – Lip Definer
used the EF Studio Lip color palette (specifically the L102 palette) for Kate’s lips.
Jemma Kidd Hi-Shine Silk Touch Lipgloss in Tea Rose #10 was a good shade for Kate’s lips.
Step 4: Cheeks
Dab a tiny bit of light shimmer at the very top of the cheekbone and on the end of the brow. Blend in.
Products Used
Jemma Kidd’s Dual Illuminator Crème Highlighter & Shimmer Dust is good for adding those subtle touches of shimmer at the top of the cheekbone.
Again, Emma used EF|Studio Loose Setting powder for the final look.
Step 5: And to really liven up the look …
Emma dabs shimmery eye shadow on the center of Kate’s eyelid. Emma says there’s nothing worse than a dry-looking eye! This shimmer makes Kate look glistening.
Products Used
in metallic hues is a good option.
Finished!
Kate is looking beautiful and ready for her night out.
Note: Brushes
Brushes are most definitely a worthwhile investment. To make them last, Emma washes her brushes after each use with a 2-in-1 shampoo & conditioner and leaves them to dry on a towel each night.TOP 9 WAYS OF DION MAKE UP
