Curvature—Curvy Girl Beauty: Golden Girl Makeup like Jill Scott

photo 4Golden girl Jill Scott knows a thing or two about signature makeup looks. While this songbird regularly changes up her hairstyles, her classic makeup looks always keep her dreamy eyes in focus.

Choosing one feature to magnify with makeup is the clue to a curvy girl’s flawless makeup finish. All too often, those of us in the curvy world, tend to emphasize EVERYTHING on our already beautiful faces.

Rainbow eyeshadow, crazy obvious contouring, over-zealousness with blush, and lips that can be seen from miles away because there are either so bright or so shiny they can’t be missed. And a tragedy is when all of these makeup faux pas’ are combined. #trainwreck

So let’s take a lesson from Miss Scott, and create a golden makeup look that’s perfect for New Year’s Eve, date night or any special occasion.

4. Define Eyes
Dramatic, yet soft “look at me” eyes are the focus of Jill Scott’s makeup
Fill in brows to frame those bedroom eyes. Keep brows strong, defined by not too dark. You don’t want your brows to overtake your eyes for attention. Use a soft pencil and brush through brows for a natural look.
