Nikki's dress had a bit of a Grecian feel so we went for a clean, elegant look. Too much color would feel over the top. I focused on luminous skin that felt effortless, with a subtle hint of color on the eyes.
For the skin I prepped with Yonka's moisturizer and then mixed Tom Ford Beauty Traceless Foundation in "Natural" with a little Jouer Luminizing Moisture Tint in Golden so that her skin would have a soft, luminous glow. I always use the Beauty Blender to blend out the foundation. I can't work without it, it just blends makeup so well. For the cheeks I used a touch of Inglot cream blush in #83 for a little soft warmth, applying with my fingers and blending it out with a brush, and Benefit "Sun Beam" highlighter on the cheekbones and bridge of the nose for a pretty sheen. I set the base and blush with a light dusting of CoverGirl Professional Loose Powder in "Translucent Medium".
For the eyes I used CoverGirl SmokyShadowBlast (the Lavender side of "Silver Sky") on the lid and a bit under the lower lashes and then a little of the bronze side of the SmokyShadowBlast in "Bronze Fire". I applied it with a brush to keep the lines soft and undefined. I popped a bit of the gold Sun Beam over the cream shadow to add extra luminosity. Afterwards I gave the lashes a good squeeze with an eyelash curler and put three coats of CoverGirl Lash Blast Volume mascara in Black on the top and two on the bottom.
On the lips I used CoverGirl Wetslicks Amazemint Lipgloss in "Slaphappy" over a little CoverGirl Lip Perfection Lipliner in "Sublime".
