Demo: Bleached brow

The aim for the lesson was to give that really high fashion image and being shown how to create a bleached brow effect without actually using bleach but make up to imply that look! To compliment this look Branka showed us a strong contoured structure feel to the face with a winged out smoked eye!

So starting with the eyes first, Branka applied an eye base using MAC chilled on ice paint pot to the lids giving a beautiful shimmer and the taking a matte dusty pink over the top as the shimmer will still shine through, then using a dark brown going onto the crease using soft movements to the eye and the mixing the brown with another shimmer brown taking this close towards the lash line. also taking the shadow into the corner of the nose as she didn't want a pretty look but an high fashion look. To frame the eye more Branka then went in with a black working into the lash line and then taking this under the eye then finishing with taking abit more brown onto her blending brush and just blending a bit more brown into the crease, once finish the eye she began to clean up underneath and this is why its always good to apply eyes first and your base after.
Before applying the base Branka applied MAC strobe cream before applying her foundation once buffed into skin Branka applied Kroylan ultra to the skin buffing this in wanting it quite bland as she's going to making the face very contoured and giving a really nice bronzed glow, then setting her base with Illamasqua translucent powder dusting this over the face.
For the bronzer using too faced pour protecting bronzer colour light, as Branka mentioned she loves this product as its a matte and helps building lightly depth to the face applying this before the contour colour, to the areas she wants to apply depth mainly applying to the cheek bone and then dusting the forehead and around the jawline, then to apply the contour colour using medium contour kit by SLEEK hitting right under the cheek bone really applying depth and to bring areas of the face forward she applied MUA highlighter stick light to the areas she wanted to pop out. If Branka goes a bit heavy with the highlighter she would go back in with her bronzer lightly blending the edges a little bit.
Ready to apply the bleach brows taking a mascara wand creating a dirty blonde colour using the derma concealer palette and mixing the colours D10 and D6 sometimes need abit of D7 to add a bit of warmth because the darker the brow the more warmth you need to cool them down, once got the colour starting grooming the hairs in the wrong direction and really start coating the hairs from the root and really push them down and then push them up then taking through brow gel through the brow and if it was to start looking a little yellow, use a matte nude shadow and lightly dust over the bleached brow.

To finish the look Branka applied mascara to the lashes to really open the eye and for the lip chose to apply a nude lip with a gloss on top otherwise it could give quite a dull look, mixing the models colour foundation with a pink to give warmth and applied this to the lip and adding a lip balm on top to give a slight lift.For the blush Branka used a coral cream blush getting her model to smile and applying to the apple of the cheek and then buffing this into the cheek giving a bit of colour for the finishing touch of the bleached brow look.
