I'm going to be showing you how to achieve beautiful makeup. One of the most important steps to consider is to make sure you prep and prime your skin first. What that means is making sure it's thoroughly cleansed, moisturized, and then put on a primer which is really going to help your makeup to sit well and then to stay on as long as possible.

Step two is putting on your foundation. We're just using the Bobbi Brown skin foundation here that just gives a really, really, lovely, cheery effect. And then literally, just put this all over the face, layering it up really, really gently, and then what you can do to get that flawless face is really buff it into the skin.

And we're just going to correct and conceal underneath Jenny's eyes. So, get that corrector really into the corners to neutralize any blue tones and the concealer underneath to really brighten up. I'm just going to pop some powder under the eye area to help set it.

And then just to set the makeup, dust the translucent powder all over the face. Don't put too much on because we want to keep that lovely fresh, cheery look. Step three is all about the eyes, and we want to keep it really, really neutral, so what I've chosen to do is use these lovely warm coppers and browns and coral colors all over Jenny's eyes, starting with a nice neutral base all over the eyelid.

So, now, I'm just going to highlight Jenny's brow by popping some mascara on her lashes, a brown mascara to really give that nice warm look. I'm just going to use a brown eyeliner, which is going to complement the colors that are on her eyes at the moment, and just put that all the way underneath the bottom lash line and also in the water line as well. Step four is warming the complexion up.

We're just going to use a bronzer that's completely matte and just dust this over the forehead, down the nose, really concentrating on the areas where the sun naturally hits. On the cheekbones as well, we can really add some nice definition. Step five is to apply some blusher to the cheeks, and you don't really want too much; you just want a little bit of color just to give her that nice healthy glow.

And follow up on the cheekbone, all the way to the hairline so you've got no harsh edges. And the key here is to blend. Blend, blend, blend.

Some people like to wear their blushers strong, some don't. I like it so it's quite subtle. And just to put a bit of highlighter on the cheekbone as well, it just helps the cheekbones stand out.

Just dust it across the cheekbone. Be careful not to go too near the eye. So I'm just evening up the other side of Jenny's face to apply some blusher blending all the way up to the hairline, then we'll pop a bit of highlighter on her cheekbone as well, and blend it in, of course.

Step six is to pop a little bit of lip gloss on the lips and to line the lips as well, which is just going to add a bit of definition and a bit more of a shape to the lip. You can apply lip gloss on its own but it is nice to shape the lips as well. I'm just using one by MAC called Sculpture.

And it's good here just to pick a very, very neutral lip gloss, because we've concentrated on the eyes here and the cheeks, you want the lips to be very neutral. And that's how to achieve a beautiful look. .
