eyeshadow: Matte cold red by Make up forever
make up by Laura Steenge
Laura Steenge is one of the most ambitious people I’ve met lately; she wants to become a make up artists. Though she is studying communication and design at the moment and not everyone around her thinks that working with cosmetics is a real career, Laura is determined to become one of the best make up artists around.
She e-mailed me a while back to ask if she could do my make up sometime, last week she came by my home and practiced her skills on my face. She even made a bunch of sketches of my eye with some of her ideas. Laura is completely self-taught and besides all the products of big cosmetic brands in her suitcase she also brought some unusual stuff like baby powder which she used to set the foundation, eye shadow, and make the lips a bit matte. According to Laura ‘baby powder is the shit’ unlike regular powder it is transparent, suits every skin color and holds a long time.
This red eyeshadow was my favorite look she did that day. But it weren't only her great ideas and maquillage-skills that impressed me but also her drive and clear vision of what she wants. Chase your dreams!

The eyeshadow looks amazing against your hair X

I really love the matching dots that she put underneath her eye. It's really unique and different and I could quite see myself wearing it, and it would probably work in a lot of different colours too. Inspirational!

So beautiful!
Really loving that you went back to that shade of icy blue that I think is one of the most perfectly matched hair color for your skin tone, and better yet you chose to compliment and bring out your eyes with that coral-y pink shade, the dot accent is adorable! Your skin is flawless btw!

I thinh red eyeshadow only rare people can pull off - and you definately are one of these rare people - it looks so cool on you!
Red is definitely a hard colour to pull off and MY do you do it well! Dior's new collection uses a white shadow and a orange red it would look so good on you! Check it out here!

wauw. hoe graag ik jou eens in beeld zou willen brengen en meteen samen zou willen werken met laura!
what a great tip for matte. thanks for letting her doll you up so we could benefit! xx
oh this is beautiful. she definitely has a talent for it. the bright red eyeshadow is almost an accessory to an outfit. it reminds me of a post I did recently, but with a super bright teal shadow. I’m really loving this though. Might try the baby powder as well, haha. Thanks for sharing, Ivania!!!
Wow, I love this make-up look. Big compliments to Laura! <3
That's so cool! http://weareallmonstersindside.blogspot.dk/
The red looks amazing with your hair and skin. It has a really nice wow effect without being costume-y or anything. I Love it!
Would never have thought about this colour, but it looks amazing! Might give it a try now! x
looks so different to how you normally look i think thats why it looks even more incredible. she's got your backing and she's now got mine amazing!
so fresh! love the concept and wish her the best! im sure she'll go far!

gorgeous make up!
Red eye shadow is amazing! Strange colors on the lids are the best, like oranges, reds, and pinks. Something a little subversive about doing slightly-sickly shades on the eyes. So good!!
wow it looks great,I have to try that baby powder:)
the only word I can say is: wow. Laura has really good idea to confim your blue hair with red eye shadow. your eyes have amazing color thanks it! and I also see her other projects on your facebook site and I think, that her ideas are really orginal and I like them. I wish her big career!
ah i love the red (which looks kinda reddish fuchsia to me!) on you!
Looks amazing. Good on her for doing what she loves regardless of what others think!
looks amazing! only you could pull off this look flawlessly! great post, very inspiring
This is so beautiful, Ivania. I wish I could pull this off! Also I am love the composition of these shots :)

Look so beautiful! I like this makeup!

That looks so good on you!

I love how she blended the eyeshadow and made it look multidimensional in spite of the matte finish. And i concur that baby powder is the shit! You can even use it as an alternative to dry shampoo if you have light colored hair :)
Love it, really nice and fresh look! :)
looks really nice! i tried it two weeks ago, but red eye shadow makes me look ill... your blue hair is the perfect contrast.
Haha, amazing, I´ve written about this make up look and an obsession of mine back in May, feel free to check it out here! xx
De oogshaduw staat je perfect. x
Not everyone can pull off red eyeshadow! I think you look amazing with it on! :D

Hey there, as a makeup artist working in the industry for 7 years, I truly encourage anyone to unleash their creativity in the form of makeup design and application. This being said, I know of a few self taught makeup artists who have had their career put to a stop, as they made mistakes that could of been prevented by completing some form of artistry training (occupational/health&safety/hygiene issues). Using alternative products does have its drawbacks (certain forms of talc used in powder can create a lighter appearance when used with high lit photography). Being a makeup artist is more challenging than people think, there is blood, sweat and tears (when studying SPFX!) But in all seriousness I do recommend enrolling in a course to get to know not only the basics, but prevent mistakes that could make or break your career. Ps: love the red, Ivania, you would still look amaze with dirt rubbed on your face :) x
Nice makeup but I saw something similar at anna sui's runway for this season (it was in deep blue)....honestly i think yours is better....btw you really look beautiful!
LOOOVE!!! love love love love XO I wish I could pull something like this off

Thanks for your sweet words and tips to Laura anonymous: she did enroll to The House of Orange, which is as far as I know the best place to learn it in The Netherlands, though the waiting lists are of one year. In the meanwhile she is doing her own projects like this one :)
YOUR HAIR = LOVE LOVE LOVE!
& you're the first person that I've seen wear red eyeshadow AND actually look good!
