An icon of many…this beautiful lady represents a glamorous era in time when she was living life to the fullest. Known for her signature style and makeup, we take this time to share with you how to create this stunning appearance by using 100% crushed minerals by Mahya!
First she was very fair, so in this day in age she more than likely would have been the color Natural in Mahya Cosmetic foundation shades.
She would generally use more brown tones for her cheeks than pink which we now call bronzer. A great bronzer that we have close to what she used is Heavenly or Caramel.
Then for her complexion we would definitely recommend Mineral Veil #1. This goes on last over all of the face with a kabuki brush. The kabuki brush we love to use most is the Flat Synthetic Kabuki.
Although she had platinum blonde hair, her eyebrows were filled in with a brown shade. In Mahya Cosmetics, the closest color we have to what she used is Dirty Blonde. It used by many customers who have very blonde hair or darker hair that like medium brown eyebrows. To accomplish this we always recommend our Angle Brow brush.
She never had dramatic eye shadow since she would have bold lips so for her look we suggest using a 3 step combo. First apply Eye Primer of course, then to the lids apply Nude, to the crease of your eyes apply Nifty for shine or a bit of Dirty Blonde to just give your eyes depth without shine such as Marilyn Monroe. It is best to use a Deluxe Round Crease Brush for this step. Then use Satin for the highlighting color just below the eyebrows. It is one of our matte colors however; it offers natural shine once applied. If you feel Satin is to white toned, you can also use Fairy Tale which is not matte but less white.
Now remember, she always had that perfect thin winged black eyeliner. We would suggest using Gothic which is our matte black and our Angle Taklon Eyeliner Brush. Just tap little by little across the upper lashline from the inner corner of your eyes out. To wing the eyeliner, slightly angle the brush upwards and the end will be thicker than the inner eye area. It takes practice if you’re new to eyeliner but with the Angle Taklon Eyeliner Brush, it makes it so much easier. It basically does the work for you.
Now to finish the eye look, apply Mahya’s Mascara in black to the upper and bottom lashes. If you have straight lashes, be sure to curl them before applying mascara.
Now you are ready to create fierce and sexy lips! First apply Ruby Red lipstick and top it off with Show Girl lip gloss. These are bold colors to match this look.
If you really want to recreate this look, you can even add her famous mole to the right side of your face just to the side of your nose and above your lips. Use the same color you did for you eyebrows and with the Angle Taklon Brush you used for eyeliner. The tip of the brush makes a perfect point if you wet the color as if eyeliner and apply.
You are ready to hit the red carpet or a costume party as a replica of the super glamorous Marilyn Monroe. Keep up with our blog’s to learn more about makeup history, looks of the season, and much more makeup gossip.
