“To play up the color of her sequin yellow dress, I wanted to do some strong graphic lips in a matte orange tone. The bold, matte orange Armani lip is a fun alternative to the classic red. Orange makes the look feel more quirky and it also compliments Gugu’s golden complexion. I kept the rest of the face understated but also played up the brows to make them a bit stronger, more defined, with flirty lashes.” – Nick Barose

COMPLEXION: To prep the skin, Nick massaged the ArmaniPrima Glow On Moisturizing Balm thoroughly on face and neck, allowing the product to absorb into the skin. Then he applied the Crema Nera Extrema Volume Reshaping Eye Serum under the eyes. As a final skincare step, he prepped the T-Zone and forehead with the Fluid Master Primer to control shine for red carpet photos.

Moving onto makeup, Nick started by applying Luminous Silk Foundation in 6.5 and 7.5. “I usually use 2 shades of foundation to help sculpt the face, apply lighter on center of face to brighten up the complexion and the darker one around perimeter of face, blend with dampen sponge.”

Nick used the yet-to-be-released complexion product from Armani and used it under the eyes and blended with a bit of the liquid foundation over it for a seamless finish (new product will launch in March).

To add a hint of color, Nick used the Neo Nude A-Blush in 53 on the apples of Gugu’s cheeks, blending around the edges with a damp sponge, followed by Lancome Blush Subtle Palette in Nectar Lace.

To highlight, he used the Neo Nude A-Line Highlight in 10 and dabbed the liquid highlighter on top of cheekbones and brow bones.

EYES: Nick started the eye look by playing up the brows by brushing them up and filling with the Smooth Silk Brow Pencil in 2. He wanted to make the brows appear fuller and more elongated but also feathery to define the eyes and balance out Gugu’s bold lips.

To create a metallic eye look, Nick blended 3 different shades of Eye Tint Liquid Eyeshadow in 6, 41 and 27. Apply the darkest shade (27) on outer corners of the eyes, then apply the medium shade (41) in center of lids, followed by the lightest tone (6) in the inner corners and brow bones. He repeated this on the lower lash line as well. He followed with Smooth Silk Eye Pencil in 12 on the top and bottom, smudging it to blur the lines, then tracing over upper lash lines with the Eyes To Kill Proliner in 1 and winging it out slightly.

To finish, he curled the lashes and add a few coats of Eyes To Kill Classic Mascara.

LIPS: For a bold lip, Nick prepped the lips with the Ecstasy Balm. Once the lips are hydrated, he blotted the excess and applied Rouge D’Armani Matte Lipstick in 401 directly from the tube to get the full intensity of the color. He finished by defining the lips by outlining the edges with the Smooth Silk Lip Pencil in 6.
