How To Do 70s Makeup

I'm here to give you some top tips and tricks. I'm doing some amazing videos and I hope you enjoy them. So I'm going to show you hwo to do the perfect '70's look.

The '70's makeup that I'm going to do is about color-clashing. I'm going to use ice-blue slash turquoise on the eyes. On the cheeks and lips, a really warm coral color which is synonymous with the '70's but will look absolutely gorgeous.

So, first thing is to use a turquoise pencil. I've warmed it a bit on the back of my hand, and I'm just going to take that and spread it across the whole of the eyelid. I'm going to use this as a base, to add a little bit more definition to the icy blue eyeshadow that I'm going to use on top.

And then just take it on the inner corner of the eye, and then all the way across the lashline. Using the cream eyeshadow, I'll just pat it across the whole of the lid. The cream shadow needs to have a little bit of frosting because that's really what the '70's was about.

And then you can add just a little bit extra of turquoise over the top. And if you'll just open, you can see how that's just such a gorgeous, easy look. I'm going to do exactly the same on the other side.

So there we have the eyes, where it's a real true pop of color so you've got the turquiose-y color going allthe way around with the ice blue on top like an overlay. I'm now going to choose a little bit of coral - which is definitely a color that was a big fashion statement back in the '70's - and just concentrate that on the cheeks, going just a little bit towards the hairline. I'm actually using lipstick on the cheeks becasue I want that continuity of color.

So, using a very, very pigmented lipstick that's not too greasy is the perfect way to get a balance between cheeks and lips. So I'm going to use exactly the same color, which is the coral, as the base on the lips. And then just to give it a slightly modern twist, I am going to use gloss over the top.

It's kind of a warm coral gloss. So there's just going to be a little overlay - like a little slick of vinyl over the top. And then just to finish, I'm going to use just a tiny little bit of a champagne color as a highlighter, just underneath the brows.

And there we have the perfect '70's makeup look, which is all about color clash. Turquoise and ice blue on the eyes, with a warm coral on the cheeks and also the lips. So it's perfectly co-ordinated - which was very much what the '70's was about.

And there we have it. That is how I've done the '70's makeup look. .
