Beach Face/Hair Charts

Face Chart

The lipstick I have chosen has come out quite red on my face charts, however it is more of a coral/orange colour.  I have chosen a brown/orange smokey eye to compliment the lipstick and tie the whole look together.

Step by Step

Products

• Garnier Micellar Water
• Daywear Moisturiser
• MAC Prep and Prime Primer
• MAC Studio Fix
• Bobbi Brown palette
• Naked 2
• Naked 3
• Sumptuous Infinite Mascara
• Illamasqua Disobey - Contour
• MAC Strobe Cream
• Bobbi Brown Pink Quartz Shimmer Brick
• Pure Colour Envy Shine - Discreet

1. Prepare the skin with Garner Micellar Water and Estee Lauder Daywear moisturiser.
2. Apply the MAC Primer all over the face using a flat brush.
3. Using a buffing brush, apply a light coat of foundation all over the face, don't apply too much as this is a very natural shot.
4. Conceal dark circles and blemishes with the Bobbi Brown Palette.
5. Using a flat brush, apply 'Booty call' and 'Tease' from the Naked 2 palette all over the eyelid.
6. With a pointed brush, apply 'Trick' from Naked 3 in the crease of the eyelid.
7. Apply just a slight coat of mascara on the lashes because the main focus in this make up is the lips.
8. Leave the brows natural, just brush them to give them some shape and make sure all the hairs are facing the right way.
9. With your finger, apply some MAC Strobe Cream on the cheekbones to really highlight the skin.  This will give a dewy look.
10. Slightly dust some Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick over this to add some extra highlight.
11. Use a contour brush to contour underneath the cheekbones with Illamasqua's Disobey.
12. Lastly finish with Estee Lauder's Discreet lipstick.

Hair Charts

I decided to go for a typical beach hairstyle which is waves.  I wanted to use salt spray and mousse to achieve lots of texture and use a mixture of scrunching and a diffuser.  I have also chosen a model with long dark hair, so I can create really big waves.

Step by Step

Products

• Water Spray
• Mousse
• Sea Salt Spray
• Hair dryer and Diffuser
• Hair brush

Method

1. Brush hair thoroughly, start at the bottom of the hair and section a medium section off.
2. Wet down the section and add some mousse and salt spray through the whole section.
3. Start drying the hair with the hairdryer, scrunching as you go.  Using the diffuser will help give a wavy beach look.
4. Repeat the process with each section of hair, making sure they are perfectly dry so the waves stay in.
5. Use your hands to arrange the hair where you'd like it, avoid using a brush because this will brush the waves out.
