Madonna's Makeup for Hard Candy

Madonna has been a long time user of shu uemura products. For her new album “Hard Candy” which I listen to religiously on the elliptical machine, shu uemura’s Artistic Director Gina Brooke created the look.

STEP 1: Prepare the face.  Begin with prepping the eyes with the MOISTURE EYE ZONE MASK. This will not only calm puffiness but it will give your eyes the ultimate hydration. Then apply PHYTO BLACK LIFT FIRMING CREAM on the whole face – it’s an amazing moisturizer and also reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Lastly, apply FACE ARCHITECT SMOOTHING FLUID FOUNDATION beginning at the arch of your brow down to the middle of your eye, directly onto the middle of the cheekbone. Each time the sun reflects off your skin, it will create the illusion of glowing, dewy, healthy, radiant skin!

STEP 2: Prime the eyelids Using a KOLINSKY BRUSH 11, apply PRESSED EYE SHADOW in M BEIGE 800 above the eyelids. Then, use COVER CRAYON in 9YR LIGHT in the inner corner and water line of the eyes to make them appear larger. Using the DRAWING PENCIL in BLACK, begin at the inner corners extending the line out all the way to the end of the eyebrow.

STEP 3: Prep the lashes Use the EYELASH CURLER before applying BASIC BLACK MASCARA beginning at the base and rolling the brush through the tips of lashes. Apply SOFT CROSS LASHES to draw attention and enhance the shape of the eye.

STEP 4: Finish off with the lips Since the focus is on the eyes, use ROUGE UNLIMITED CRYSTAL SHINE in PK 301S layered with GLOSS UNLIMITED in BG 930N for a soft, natural look.
