Hey everyone it's Megs here, otherwise known as the Megs Cahill, Professional Makeup Artist and Beauty Influencer
And today I am joined by my beautiful little sister Maddie
Hello, hello
So, I have Maddie here because we're gonna do an awesome prom look on her using all COVERGIRL products,
which I'm so excited about because they're easily accessible and they're cruelty-free
So we're gonna do something a little bit more dramatic - maybe do some blue with Maddie wearing blue today
I'm so excited to show you guys my tips and tricks, especially coming from a professional myself
I hope you guys can learn a tip or two as well
So first off starting with her face, I'm
gonna start with the eyebrows
I normally work from the eyes first and then I did the face last especially since we're doing something a little bit more dramatic,
we want to make sure if there's any fallout we can easily wipe that away
and not have to worry about that getting mixed into our foundation
So first off I'm going to use this COVERGIRL brow pencil
This is Rich Brown
So this is really awesome - it has a little spooley so it's pretty tiny as you guys can see
So, first I brush Maddie's brows up, just to kind of get an idea of the shape
and then I will go in and I would start lightly filling them in, just in little brushing strokes
Finishing up her brow right now - as you can see she looks a little crazy with her brows done first
but I like to do the brows first as it gives me a map for the eye of how far to ramp the eyeshadow and such
So now I'm gonna go ahead and clean up her brows
I'm gonna do that using some concealer so this is the COVERGIRL Clean Matte Concealer
Most of the products I'll be using today are matte because this is a night out,
since she's going to prom, she's probably dancing and sweating and Maddie is naturally oily skin
I'm more dry, she's more oily
but I'm just gonna use some concealer and prep the eyelid for eyeshadow and we'll be right back
Okay, so let's start eyeshadow, the most exciting, fun part
Madison is wearing blue, so we want to do something smokey and blue - do something a little bit more dramatic
So I'm gonna be using two eyeshadow palettes from COVERGIRL
I'm gonna be using the Nudes and the Dazed
So these two palettes are a pretty good mix as we have some brights here and up there we have new some neutrals
and we also have some deeper shades that we can deepen the eye with
But we're gonna mainly do our pop with this shadow palette right here
So let's start with the Nudes
and I'm gonna start with the transition shade
and we're going to build it up and add some blues
So let's start her eyes
So I'm going to start with a transition
so we're gonna go with this little guy right here
just on a fluffy brush
Maddie's gonna close her eyes and this is gonna start by going into her crease
So we're gonna start by building the shadow in her crease first,
just kind of going in windshield wiper motions
I am gonna be pulling the shadow out a tad
because we are gonna be putting a wing so we're gonna set up the shadow to work perfect with a wing
So we're gonna start deepening her eye
I'm gonna keep with the same fluffy brush, this is what I just feel most comfortable with
Madison has a pretty big crease line in her eyes so it's easy for me to work in with this brush
I'm gonna just go the next step up in the deeper eyeshadow
We're on the eyes, as you guys can see we have that nice transition and a little bit of deepening
Look straight at camera for me Maddie
As you guys can see, when Maddie looks
straight you can still see the definition
So now we're gonna go a little bit deeper and then we'll pop the blue in there
So we're gonna go into the second darkest
We're gonna focus this just on the outer third of her lid
So I want Maddie's eyes to be a little bit warmer,
so I'm actually gonna pull a product that I'm gonna be using later to do her face
I'm gonna dip into the bronzer which is a little bit more of a warm
Close your eyes
So the last thing to deepening the eye, we're gonna take this dark shade right here
This is adding all that shadow for when we add the blue, the blue's really going to pop
Next we're gonna use some of that concealer that I used to clean up her brows
We're gonna use this to tap onto her lid to use as a sticky base for the blue when we apply,
that way the blue won't flake off
I'm just gonna keep this more on the inner part of Maddie's eye,
in the ball of her eye and top
and I'm gonna use my finger and just tap and blend this
Okay so now we're gonna pick up this palette, so this our Dazed Palette
We're gonna start with this really pretty cobalt blue
and I'm actually going to also spray my brush to get the most metallic payoff
So I'm gonna be using our setting spray
This is the Outlast Active
This is the cooling setting mist
So this is something that makes your makeup last all day
A trick that I do is I just spray my brush, that way my brush is damp
so when I apply this shadow, it's gonna be very pigmented
so this is gonna go on the ball of Maddie's lid
just kind of where we put that concealer
That blue is beautiful
So for the inner corner of Maddie's eye we're gonna take this really pretty blue right here
We're going to pop that right into that little pocket before we hit the darkest blue
So I'm gonna pop a color right here into her highlight
and then we will clean up all under her eyes
Don't mind her under eyes - I'm a little heavy-handed with shadow
and that's why I always do her foundation last
So I'm just gonna brighten this inner corner right here
with a little bit of this metallic shade just to add some light to her eyes
So I'm gonna tell you guys a little pro trick of mine
I take a cotton round
and I put a makeup remover in the middle
and I'll have her look up and I'm gonna wipe right under her eye
and pick up all that shadow
but, I'm going to have you turn your head that way
Look up
When I do it I go along her lash line and I pull up
So now I have the shape for where the wing's gonna go
And that just makes such an easy guide
Look up again
Makes such an easy guide for when I go to apply her liner which we're gonna do next
We're gonna go ahead and do a wing
So next up we're gonna apply liner
I'm gonna do a wing but I'm gonna do this with a pencil
So I'm going to go ahead and use the Ink It Pencil
This is in Black Ink - very creamy, easy to work with
So now that we have Maddie's wing all sharp - we definitely have a dramatic wing, dramatic shadow
we're gonna go ahead and apply mascara which is so important before putting on your falsies
You wanna make sure your lashes are nice and dark so they mesh with the falsies very well
We're going to use the COVERGIRL Lash Blast Volume Mascara
So when I apply mascara, I apply
it from the top first
I know that's weird but I coat it from the top so that way once the top is coated and I coat the bottom,
it'll help it stand up more - it's almost like the prep for it to curl better
So now we're gonna move on to Madison's face
We're gonna start with primer
So this is the COVERGIRL TruBlend
Base Business
This is the Everyday Defense Skin Primer
So normally I like to put this on with my fingers,
That way in the crease of her nose, under her eyes, all of that
This is just gonna smooth out her skin for foundation and just give the foundation something to stick to as well
So now on to Maddie's foundation, I'm gonna mix these two little guys right here to make sure I get the right match for her
So I'm gonna mix T30 and L50
These are 12-hour wear foundation and these are also smudge-proof
so they will not transfer or anything like that
This is perfect for Maddie, especially since she has somewhat oily skin
so this is going to keep her nice and matte
and keep her foundation on all night
so I'm just gonna go ahead and apply this with a sponge or a brush - whatever you feel most comfortable with - all over her face
Okay so now that we have Madison's foundation fully applied, we're gonna go ahead and start highlighting
I normally highlight first, highlight and conceal first
and then I'll contour after
So taking this brush, I'm gonna apply this on the high points, first being under the eyes
So I'm just gonna paint some under her eye right here,
pick it up on the nose a little bit to snatch her nose in
To face straight there
There we go
As you guys can see, I'm kind of snatching up the side of the nose
I'm gonna do her chin
Remember when you're highlighting, it's whatever you want to bring forward
whatever you want to be most prominent
So we're gonna highlight all these features
We almost want it to look like there's a spotlight on the middle of Maddie's face
Cute
Okay I'm just gonna go ahead and use a little bit darker shade foundation
So this is T40
and I am just going to use a little paintbrush and I'm gonna paint that on to the contours of Maddie's face
Since this is the same formula as the foundation,
so it's gonna blend together and mesh perfectly
So I am just gonna kind  of heap this on to Maddie's little all over cheek right here
just kind of in that little portion, bringing it forward
and then I'm gonna take a little brush right here
and I'm just gonna blend this out, kind of just tapping and if anything flicking up, never flicking down,
we want to keep all the contours up and high on your face
We don't want to drag her face down at all
This is just adding some color, some warmth and definition
Look forward
I'm also going to go along Maddie's forehead
This is going to minimize her forehead
and also add warmth
Again, just taking this brush and kind of blending it out
tapping in rolling motions
and I'm just - look that way
I'm just going all the way down to this contour
so that way it's seamless
and I'm gonna go by her ear too
and then draw your head towards me
I'm gonna repeat the same thing on the other side
So again, just warming up her forehead and taking down the jaw
Okay and then with whatever is left on the brush, I just pinch it
No need to get a new brush
Whatever's left, I'm gonna just go down the side of her nose
This is a soft, easy way of contouring and adding color back into the face
Kind of pulling that into the brow too
So next we are going to set Maddie's face
So we did all the cream
So we cream contoured and highlighted and all that
So once that's all applied, then we're gonna set
We don't want to be mixing creams and powders
So I'm just gonna take - this is the Clean Professional Powder by COVERGIRL
I'm gonna dip my sponge
As you can see it's like a little bit chunky on my sponge,
So I'm gonna take my hand and I'm just gonna tap in my hand
See all that excess? None of that is needed
So now for extra insurance and cause Maddie does get a little oily,
I'm gonna take this powder - this is the Clean Matte Powder in the shade Warm Beige
Look this way
And I'm gonna set the contours of her face with this
So instead of setting with translucent powder, I'm gonna set it with a powder a little bit of color
That way if there's any flash photography, the contours will not 100% off wash out
because this powder is setting it as well, there's no translucent over top
So this is just adding more color and also setting the face at the same time
So next I'm gonna take the Serving Sculpt Palette
I'm going to use this bronzer on a nice big fluffy brush
Look that way for me
and I'm just gonna add some bronziness to her
So next I'm going to highlight her face
We're going to use the Super Stunner Palette and I'm going to mix these 2 shades right here
To get the highlights
Look that way for me
I'm gonna highlight just the tops of her
cheekbone
Right here so she has that nice shine whenever anyone is taking any photos, or anything like that
and look forward
Okay and then I'm just going to
go down the center of her nose, her Cupid's bow and her chin
These are the points that's gonna pull the most highlight
and these highlights are pretty blinding guys, like you can really get a super good glow
I'm gonna tone it down just a little bit on her nose by going over it with the sponge
Next we're gonna do blush, so going in back into the Serving Sculpt Palette
I'm gonna take this beautiful little peachy guy right here on this fluffy brush
Look that way
Smile for me
I'm gonna have Maddie smile, I'm going to take this nice, fluffy guy
and I'm just gonna work it here, I'm going to go back but also a little bit forward
I'm keeping her blush a little bit higher instead of going like down here, keeping it a little bit higher
to pull her face up and give her that more youthful look
Look forward
So now we're gonna finish off her eyes
I'm gonna go ahead and take that black pencil that we used earlier
And look up
This is gonna go right into her waterline
and then once it's in her waterline we're actually going to connect the wing
Look that way for me so they can see
And look up
We're gonna connect that wing to her bottom lash line
That way the wing isn't just coming out of nowhere, it's really swooping her eyes up
Now we're gonna take that little brush, kind of like a little paw brush
and look up
We're gonna blend this liner with some
blue
You want to make sure you have no excess, so make sure you like tapping the brush off
because we have done the foundation, we don't anything to fall under
Look up
and we're just going to get right under her lashes - it's almost like we're tilting her lashes up
so we can really get under there
And this is going to tie in the blue
Smoke it out in the babiest way
Look forward
See how it's just a little bit softer than the other side and still adding blue back into her
So for her inner corner to add brightness to this look,
I'm gonna go back into the new palette and take this little guy right here
and we're gonna mix it with the first one
that way it's not too peachy and not too white
So to finish up her eyes, we're gonna do the bottom lashes with the Lash Blast Mascara
and I'm just making sure to coat all of that
because this is really gonna tie in the top lashes and the smokiness
and it's gonna open her eyes as well
Look at camera
So I have these awesome lippies right here
So this is the Outlast All-Day Custom Nudes Collection
These three are personally the ones that I kind of gravitated towards
So we have Light Warm
Medium Warm
and Universal Nude, which this shade is the shade that they tried on a bunch of different women and it looks absolutely beautiful in all skin tones
So, I'm gonna show you guys a little trick for if you're not sure what lip you want to do yet
but you can see the color right here - give me one second
So now on to lips these
These are the Outlast All-Day Lip Colors by COVERGIRL
So these actually last for 24 hours
They have a super long staying power, they are absolutely amazing
So you apply these first and then you have a second step that you put on 30 to 60 seconds later
It's kind of like a balm
So this is gonna stay super well
So let me show you guys a little trick
As you guys can see the shades right here
If you're not really sure what lip to do with your eye and you don't want to keep trying them on,
you can actually just hold it up as if it was your lips
and you can totally see how it'll look with your eyes
So look down Maddie
So you can see we have the blue here so we can see if this complements the blue
I think that complements pretty well
We have this little guy which still does well but it's a little bit more berry
and then we have this one too
a little bit more bold, just the slightest difference
So, looking at them I would say these two
are the ones I like
Holding them up and checking, I think I want to go with the bottom one
The bottom one actually is more of a coral shade, so it has an orange undertone
But by having an orange undertone, at the opposite of orange on the color wheel is blue
So with our shadow being blue and this being more of a coral orange undertone,
they're gonna complement each other and they're not going to clash
So this is complementary whenever they're separate,
the two colors on the wheel are separate from each other, they're complementary
and when they're together they neutralize
So since they're separated, they're gonna complement
So let's go ahead and do this shade
We're gonna apply this first on Maddie's lips,
wait 30 to 60 seconds and then apply the second step
Alright guys, so the last thing to finish off Maddie's makeup is setting spray
So this is the Outlast Active Cooling Setting Mist for all-day wear
We're just gonna go ahead and spray this on Maddie's face - close your eyes for me
And this is just gonna set Maddie's face so that way when she's out dancing and such,
if she's sweating or anything like that, the makeup is not gonna budge
If you also want to speed this process up a little bit faster with drying it,
a tip I like to do is take one of your palettes and just fan your face
so that way it dries and that will set everything in once it's dry
Okay everyone, that was it for this look
