Victoria Beckham's signature look [Tutorial]

 

I have to say that I like Victoria Beckham a lot, even if her public persona is not very loved. I think she is a smart woman, a good mother of 4, a great entrepreneur and while subject to the most outrageous attacks from the media she manages to keep her family together, being married for more than 10 years to one of the most wanted men in the world.
Victoria usually uses the same makeup look, whether she is in a red carpet event or daily schedule. She has oily skin, so she does not wear a lot of makeup and her skin is usually a bit shiny. Her signature look is smudged liner with slightly smoked eye shadow, a lot of mascara and nude lips, with an all-over bronzed skin.

Started by applying a sheer foundation, Myface mymix foundationFair 2. I did not wear loose powder to get that glowing skin she tends to have. I used MAC select cover up concealerNW20 to cover under eye circles and blemishes around the nose.

Usually we don't see Victoria with very evident blush so I chose one with sheer pigment. I swiped Bobbi Brown Illuminating Bronzing powderAruba on the cheeks, nose, forehead and chin to achieve a soft sun-kissed skin, highlighted the cheekbones with Aube illuminating powder (love this product) and for blush I used Giorgio Armani sheer blush#3.

I primed my eyelids with Urban Decay primer potion and then used MAC matte eyeshadow Blanc Type all over the eyelids to create a base. I lined the eyes with an eye pencil - L’oréal Contour Khôl  #164 Chrome brown. The liner is applied all over the eyes and inside the waterline. This is the key point for her signature look. Smudge the eyeliner with a smudging brush, keeping the colour as close to the eyelashes as possible. I then used Urban Decay Naked palette. I smudged Darkhorse on the crease and lower lash-line, blending very well the eyeshadow. I used Toasted in the centre of the crease, to create a lighter area. Then I repeated this process again, accentuating the smoked effect. I left the brow bone only with blanc type, since Victoria never uses shimmer here. I curled my lashes with SUQQU eyelash curler and applied several coats of Revlon Grow Luscious mascara.

I applied RMK Irresistible lips #20 Neutral Beige to the lips and topped with a coat of MAC Viva Glam Lip Glass Gaga 2.
