For many of us, glitter can get a little difficult to pull off. Thankfully, Make Up For Ever International Makeup Artist Marisa Avedikyan teaches us how to do shimmer right with three bold looks.
STARSTRUCK
Most of the time, a mere glow is all you need. But there are times when you’ll want to pile on the glitter, using products such as MAKE UP FOR EVER Star Powder in N920 (P1350). Allow your cheekbones to take the center stage for this look with natural eyes and subtle gloss on the lips using Ultra HD Lip Booster (P1500).

RED ALERT
For Avedikyan, skin is just as important in this bold makeup look, so start off with MAKE UP FOR EVER Skin Booster (P2250) to help perfect it. For the eyes, use a warm red eye shadow and Starlit Powder in 1 (P1250), a shimmery translucent glitter. For the lips, use Artist Liquid Matte in 302 (P1250) to match the eyes.

PINK QUARTZ
Go monochromatic with a glossy, bright pink lip and eye. To achieve this look, use MAKE UP FOR EVER Artist Face Color in B218 (P1200) on the eyes and AQUA XL Paint in M82 (P1450) on the lips. Finish off with Mist & Fix (P1600) to lock in the color.
