HOW TO CREATE THE AS IF IT WERE SUMMER STILL... LOOK
(LATE SUMMER 2009)
The Rouge Bunny Rouge look AS IF IT WERE SUMMER STILL… helps you to keep your sun-kissed beauty through summer into early autumn.
Face
First indulge your complete face with our Aqua Primer PRELUDE IN THE CLOUDS for fresh, juicily soft skin. Your face will be cushioned with an invisible layer of comfort and hydration, pores will be minimised and make-up lasts all day long. Apply to the entire face, neck and eye area.
The feathery reflective formula of the Luminous Skin Wand FINE-SPUN LIGHT’s new olive-beige shade ‘Alula’ provides a perfect canvas for all other products. The unique active ingredient Haloxyl™ gives a long-term reduction of under eye darkness and Fermiskin reduces puffiness. Dot it sparingly under the eyes with its integral brush and then blend using fingertips or RBR Concealer Brush (# 004). FINE SPUN LIGHT can also be used to minimise small imperfections and blemishes on the face. Dot a little on the back of your hand and use our concealer bush to smooth and cover.
Lightly brush the Highlighting Liquid SEAS OF ILLUMINATION in shade ‘Sea of Nectar’ with our Foundation Brush (# 009), all over your face. The finish should be delicately radiant, rather than metallic, so apply sparingly. The gold-in-rose colour gives a pale copper luminous glow while botanicals treat your skin. Melissa reduces puffiness and a natural hydrating complex provides day-long protection against moisture loss. The fresh smell of cucumber and peach make it a pure pleasure to apply.
Advanced micronisation, in combination with treated spherical powders, produces the unusual perfecting Bronzing Glow Powder AS IF IT WERE SUMMER STILL… with smoothing properties. Dust the natural coral-brown of the new shade ‘at Netherway Cove’ using RBR Powder Brush (# 001) where the sun kisses your skin; nose, cheekbones, chin and brow bone. Papaya Extract smoothes the skin and Passion Fruit Seed Oil is a natural anti-oxidant.
Eyes
For a day-long, natural look to complement your tan, pair ‘Fire-tailed Sunbird’, an apricot pink with ‘Bejewelled Skylark’, a chocolate-brown. Using the RBR Large Shader brush (# 003) first brush ‘Fire-tailed Sunbird’ over the entire eye area from the lashes to your brows. Use it in the inner corner of your eyes to give a hint of freshness and to open up your eyes. Apply the darker shade, ‘Bejewelled Skylark’, with the RBR Sponge Applicator (# 015) in the crease of your eyelid and on the outer corner of your eyelid and blend it well up and out with the RBR Mini Shader Brush (# 005).
To accentuate your eyes further, draw an even line with the slightly metallic, dark ash-brown Eye Kohl FELINE GAZE ‘Lola’ along the upper lashes while stretching the eyelid a little bit, starting at the inner line of the pupil and extending to the outer corner of the eye; for a more dramatic look extend the line over the outer corner. Draw a soft line under the eye and smudge with the Sponge Applicator (#015).
For full, deep and precisely defined lashes RBR make-up artists recommend the warm chocolate-brown Big Lash Mascara ‘Golden Charcoal’. AMPLITUDE’s technologically advanced formula wraps each lash with a creamy coat of nourishing natural waxes to thicken and condition. Apply to both sets of lower lashes first (this avoids disaster if you blink) and then the upper lashes. Sweep downwards first, to cover the upper side of the lashes, and then use the wand to coat and curl the lashes upwards from root to tip with a wiggling movement. Use the corner of the brush to catch the lashes at the outer corner of the eye.
Lips
The incomparable staying power of the Long-lasting Lip Pencil FOREVER YOURS… allows you to enjoy everything you want. Draw the bronzed pink of ‘Esteban’ precisely over the outline of your mouth and then use the flat side to softly fill in the lips. Allow a second or two for the Lip Liner to adhere to your lips before applying lipstick or lip gloss.SWEET EXCESSES Glassy Gloss ‘Jungle Fudge’ treats and moistures your tender lips with Paper Birch, Woodland Figwort and Cotton Tree extract, gleaming with a coppery, semi-sheer metallic finish. Apply straight onto your lips with its angled sponge applicator, or for a professional finish, use RBR’s Lip Brush (#010).
Radiate the most beautiful lustre-look with AS IF IT WERE SUMMER STILLL… for long, late summer nights.
