Get The Look: Beginner Brows

Welcome to Anastasia Beverly Hills! If you're aiming for perfect brows, you're in the right place. This guide will walk you through the essentials of how to do your eyebrow makeup. Whether you prefer a natural look or something more dramatic, this step-by-step routine will help you achieve flawless results. Finding Your Brow Shape Anastasia’s Golden Ratio® method helps determine the ideal brow shape for your face, to enhance your facial features and give you a balanced appearance. To determine your ideal brow shape, follow this three step process. First, determine the beginning of your brow. Start by aligning your pencil or brush vertically from the center of the nostril upward. Mark the starting point of your brow. Next, find where your brow should end. Place your pencil on the bottom outside corner of the nostril and align it with the outside corner of the eye. Mark the ending point of the brow. Finally, determine the highest point of your brow (arch). Looking straight ahead, place your pencil on the center of the tip of your nose, align it with the center of your iris and mark the arch of the brow. Step 1: Fill In Your Brows Brow Definer Start by brushing your brows with the spoolie brush to groom them and ensure all hairs are in place. Using the flat side of Brow Definer, outline the shape of the brow. Next, use the medium side to fill in. Use the fine-tip to create hair-like strokes in sparse areas. Blend with the spoolie brush. Step 2: Set Your Brows Clear Brow Gel Use Clear Brow Gel to keep your brows in place all day. This colorless, lightweight gel holds your brow hairs in place and prevents smudging or fading. Apply using short, upward motions and finish by gently blending any harsh lines with a spoolie brush for a seamless, natural look. Want More Dimension? Brow Powder Duo Once you’ve got the basics down, you can explore and experiment! For example, to create brows with a natural-looking ombre effect, fill using one of our two-shade Brow Powder Duo products. Or use an eyebrow stencil to help create the perfect brow shape every time.

Get The Look: Cloud & Matte

Are you looking to achieve a dreamy-looking “cloud skin” complexion? The forecast says you’re in luck! It’s easy to create this soft, slightly matte, slightly radiant (and so on-trend) look at home. It’s great for all skin types – especially those with oily skin – and it goes with all makeup styles, from subtle to ultra-glam. All you need is to follow these steps and use these makeup products from Anastasia Beverly Hills. Here’s how to do it. STEP 1: PERFECT Magic Touch Concealer To start, use creamy Magic Touch Concealer to correct and brighten your skin to an even, luminous finish. Select the shade closest to your skin tone, then use the wand to apply dots to the forehead, cheeks, nose and chin. Also apply directly over blemishes, discoloration, or anywhere you need extra coverage. Blend using the A30 Pro Brush. STEP 2: RADIANCE Blurring Serum Blush Next, we’ll add a natural-looking flash of color using Blurring Serum Blush. This hydrating, soft-matte liquid blush is great for creating the flushed-from-within effect that goes with this look. To apply, squeeze a dot directly onto the cheeks and blend with your fingertips, using gentle pressing motions. Add another dot or two if you want more intensity, or layer two shades to create a custom effect. STEP 3: SET Loose Setting Powder To finish, we’ll use Loose Setting Powder to brighten and blur. This lightweight, silky powder sets makeup with the desired smooth, flawless matte finish you want. Apply using a makeup sponge or powder brush, lightly pressing in the areas you want to set. Be sure to focus on the T-zone from forehead down to nose and chin, and under the eyes. You’re looking for a bright, diffused effect to achieve this look. COMPLETE THE LOOK Lip Velvet Adding some velvet-smooth color and finish to your lips is a delicious way to complement your new “cloud skin” look. Lip Velvet is a weightless, true-matte color lip mousse that wears comfortably and looks smooth, natural and moisturizing on the skin.
