The Sexy Sophisticate...

On Katura I went with a look I call the Sexy Sophisticate. I went with colours I felt brought a glow to her eyes and face. 

• Using Kryolans Derma Colour Light foundation palette I used three different shades to subtly contour, highlight and correct the skin leaving a beautiful soft dewy look. 
• After setting the look with a translucent powder I filled in Katura’s beautiful full brows. As we all know, a finished brow frames the face perfectly! 
• Katura was wearing a gorgeous bright fuchsia dress and I wanted her eyeshadows to compliment it. n After using Kryolans Eye Shadow Primer, which helps powder shadows adhere to the lid without smudging or fading, I used a matte warm gold tone from lash line to brow bone to brighten her eye area and made a great base for her skin tone. 
• On top of that, I used “Wild Cherry”, from Kryolans Viva Brilliant Colour Medley shimmering eyeshadow palette, on the lid and through the outer corners to add brightness. 
• Finally a soft black matte shadow was lightly blended through the crease and the corners of the eyes adding depth and the “Sexy Sophisticate” look I was talking about earlier!  
• Finally black liner on top lash line and on bottom water line create a soft smokey look with lots of mascara finishing the look. Cheeks have a soft shimmery apricot blush and lips were lined in Kryolans waterproof Faceliner in chocolate #20 and a cherry toned lipstick was blended into that....

Hair
by Nazma Amirali

Katura’s hair was washed with Kerastase Bain Oleo-Relax, followed by a deep-conditioning treatment with Oleo-Relax Masque to tame and moisturize her naturally curly hair, giving it a longer-lasting smoother effect.

• Next it was trimmed, then an application of Ciment Thermique was worked through the hair before it was set on large rollers and dried. 
• This product protects the hair from the heat of blow-drying and the protein in it strengthens the hair when the flat-irons are used by thermally activating the proteins.
• After drying, the hair was brushed and smoothed out then curled with a flat-iron.  
• For a shiny, glossy, long-lasting finish Nazma worked an application of Oleo-Relax Serum through the hair for an incredible shine and smoothness and to protect hair from humidity.
• The beautifully finished hair was then pinned up with the curls to one side to give Katura a soft and chic glamour.
