Yesterday, I was treated to a fabulous makeover at CHANEL Pavilion, by their international artist Sophie Egerton, who is visiting South Africa from the UK.
All the fabulous products used on my face
First, the canvas was set using Chanel Teint Innocence Compact (in number 40), possibly my new favourite foundation of all time. I’m olive skinned, so the foundation was warmed up with another new favourite, Soleil Tan De Chanel in Bronze Universal, then set with Chanel Vitalumiere Pressed Powder in B30.
I was really impressed with the foundation, how it all blended beautifully with my skin, while it gave great coverage. I’ve only ever used Vitalumiere Aqua foundation, from Chanel which is great, but I think this combination above is definitely my perfect fit!
Sophie started my makeover with my brows, spending quite a lot of time perfecting them. I love having my brows done by makeup artists, as it makes such a huge difference and I always manage to mess mine up when I try, although Sophie did give me some tips. First brush the brows down, then fill in the areas needed with a pencil before brushing them back up. That way you can get a better view of their shape and apply filler in the most flattering way.
I gave the fabulous Sophie, with her gorgeous red locks and bright red lipstick, freedom to give me any look she desired. She chose the gorgeous Chanel eye shadow quad in Kaska Beige, with a selection of warm chocolatey bronwn’s and toffee shades. MMM!
Getting smoked!
Viola!
The finished look
Thanks to the team at Chanel SA, Gillian and Sarah for setting up my Chanel makeover and letting me experience some of the cool products I don’t have
