In fact, when it comes to red, less is truly more. While the beauty of makeup artistry is that there are “no rules” (anything can work with the right intention), there are definitely guidelines that can be followed. A strong eye paired with strong lips rarely works. Even a clean cat liner can come across as Marilyn Monroe impersonator attire if not executed with flawless precision. For a modern fresh and elegant take on this classic look, keep it simple. Skin makeup should be light and undetectable. Try a foundation-power dusted lightly across the entire face to even out your skin tone. I suggest Guerlain Lingerie De Peau Power Foundation for skin so natural that, like the finest lingerie, no one knows you’re wearing it but you. A little cheek shine goes a long way, and for this the iconic Bobbi Brown Shimmer brink is perfect for day and night. Sheer enough to never be unintentionally overdone, but strong enough to make a statement. Finish with a soft sweeping of your favorite mascara, artfully painted red lips, and enjoy the simple but glamour transformation.
