Good evening from Hong Kong. I'm writing to you from the future with some fun pictures of some of my clients transformations at the Nars counters in Hong Kong.
The Chinese women from Hong Kong, are quite cosmopolitan. They love to shop until they drop, and that includes luxury cosmetics such as Nars.
For the past 2 days, I've been booked non stop with appointments and come to learn a lot about how the women here in Hong Kong love to wear their make up.
First of all , they're not keen on too much of a bright color. They prefer a soft yet striking smoky eye in shades of browns, and coopers. Eyeliner is a must since it makes the eye look much bigger.
The complexion has undertones of yellow, so I like to highlight it with the Nars Copacabana illuminator.
Also, chinese women like to have more of a chiseled bone structure, so I showed them how to use the Nars Ita brush made from goat hair. This brush is perfect shape for contouring, for it has a flat side to create more angles and full on pigment deposit. To create a natural shade of contouring, I use the laguna bronzer. This bronzer is quite popular for it has no red undertone, therefore it will not give you a George Hamilton effect from a Ritz cracker commercial.
To balance the smoky eye, I prefer a lighter shade for the lip. I like to combine the Nars Velvette Matte lipstick pencil with a gloss or the new sheer pencils. This pencils are fabulous because they will give the lips shine and yet durability.
Bellow, see some of my Hong Kong beauties who were brave enough to allow me to Narsify them;
By the way, I made it to the next round for the Shu Uemura make up competition.
Thanks so much for your votes.
I will keep you posted with the next challenge. The video is due May 14, so stay tune.
Ta Ta my dears,
Moi
