Looks - The Great Cheek Experiment: Stark Naked + Petticoat

Just one photo for you! Stark Naked blush with Petticoat mineralize skinfinish over it on the cheeks 🙂

You will need the following…

  • Eyes: Chanel Beiges de Chanel quad, Blacktrack fluidline (black), Urban Decay Honey 24/7 Liner (gold), Plushlash mascara (black)
  • Cheeks: Stark Naked blush (raspberry), Petticoat mineralize skinfinish (raspberry)
  • Lips: Strawberry Blonde lipstick (pink-coral), Sugar Trance (sheer white-pink), Love Alert dazzleglass (glittery fuschia-red)
  • Brushes: 266 (firm, angled brush), 249 (flat, firm brush), 239 (fluffy shadow brush), 129 (dense blush brush)
  • Substitutes: Enough Said = Gingerly; Strawberry Blonde = Skew; Sugar Trance = Prrr

Directions: Define brows using a coordinating powder shadow applied with the 266 brush. Apply Soft Ochre paint pot all over the lid as the base with the 249. On the inner half of the lid, apply the lightest color from the Chanel Beiges de Chanel quad with the 239. Apply the next lightest color on the outer half of the lid with the 239 brush. Darken the crease with medium colored brown and drag using the 239. Sweep the lightest color underneath the brow bone to highlight. Finish with Urban Decay Honey 24/7 Liner on lower lash line and Blacktrack fluidline on upper lash line, and Plushlash mascara on lashes. Sweep apples of cheeks with Stark Naked using the 129, highlight cheekbones with Petticoat. Apply Strawberry Blonde lipstick to lips, and then top with Sugar Trance lipglass and Love Alert dazzleglass for color and shine.

Hey Christine, this is my absolute favorite cheek look by far. I love Petticoat and Stark Naked because they both are very pigmented. I was so thrilled when I went to Saks Fifth Avenue and found out it was Friends and Family weekend and everything was 20% off! I went crazy but I didn’t get any of the bronze shades for my cheeks like you did. I’m more fair than you and it just doesn’t look right to have just bronzed cheeks on me. That’s how I feel, but I’m sure some people would like the look, I just prefer more pink cheeks. Loves it!

Christine, this look is so pretty on you!

Can you think of ONE product that would produce that color on lips? I don’t like to mix products (I’m weird, i know) Thanks!
