2. Customizing Undertones, Shades & Proportions
Welcome to Part 2 of my breakdown on Creative elegant makeup.
Before you lock in your final formula or outfit pairing, here is how I adapt the tones and textures for each client.
Pin Look
Finding Your Most Flattering Version
If you’re warm-toned, swap the berry lip for a terracotta or peach gloss.
And keep the eye shadows in bronze and gold.
For cooler undertones, go with a rose-wood lip and silvery taupe shadows.
It’ll make your eyes pop instantly.
Texture-wise, if you prefer a dewier finish, mix a drop of liquid highlighter into your foundation.
And for proportions, if you have hooded eyes, skip the heavy lower lash liner and focus on a clean upper lash line to open up your gaze.
✦ Which Finish Fits Your Vibe?
- Velvet Rose-Gold Glow: Effortless, soft-focus dimension that flatters every skin tone in daytime or candlelight.
- High-Impact Statement Finish: Crisp lines, rich pigment payoff, and bold contrast for evening events or street-style photos.
- Balanced Proportions: Keep one feature bold while letting the surrounding textures stay airy and breathable.
Always check how the finish and proportions look in both natural window light and warm indoor lighting so the result feels effortless from every angle.
