*Moulin Rouge 'Satine' Inspired Makeup Tutorial*

Like I said in the title, it's just an inspired look, it's not exactly like the makeup Nicole Kidman wore in Moulin Rouge, so don't send me hate mail or anything if it's not perfect.

Products Used:



















-Concealer
-White Costume Face Makeup
-Foundation
-Translucent Powder
-Eyeshadow Base
-White Shimmery Eyeshadow
-Black Mascara
-Black Eyeliner
-Shimmery Black Eyeshadow
-Mauve Colored Eyeshadow
-Eyeliner Pencil
-Red Lip Stain
-Red Lipstick
-Various Brushes

One:














Apply your concealer, foundation, and translucent powder the way you usually do it. ***Only if your face isn't as pale as 'Satine's is then add a bit of white face makeup to your foundation to lighten it up a bit.***

Two:














Fill in your brows with an eyebrow pencil and gel them down with clear mascara.

Three:



















Take a small round Blush Brush and swirl it into your white eyeshadow. Swipe the brush on the tops of your cheek bones to give your cheeks a shimmery highlight. Blend well!

Four:














Apply a skin colored eyeshadow base to your entire eyelid/browbone and blend in well.

Five:














Take a small brush, your white eyeshadow, and highlight just under your brows, on the brow bone.

Six:














Thinly line your upper lashline in black eyeliner and extend it to a cat-eye point at the end.
If you also want to, you can very lightly line the bottom lashline with the black liner too, but that's optional.

Seven:














Take a smudging brush and smudge out your eyeliner lines so the color looks more gray then black. Blend it out well, we don't want harsh lines!

Eight:














With a small eyeshadow brush, apply a shimmery black shadow to that outer 'V' that the eyeliner formed, and blend in well.

Nine:














With the same small eyeshadow brush, apply a mauve colored eyeshadow over top of the black eyeshadow and blend it in to lighten the look up. blend and blend until the lines look like they fade into the skin!

Ten:





























Curl your eyelashes and apply 2-3 coats of mascara on upper and lower lashes.

Eleven:



















Apply a light layer of a red lip stain to make your lips darker without the sticky mess of gloss.

Twelve:














With your finger/or a lip brush, gently pat on an even layer of red lipstick over the red stain.

Finished Look:
