How to adopt the neo grunge beauty look?

Many tend to shy away from the heavy eyes and dark lips look because it may seem a tad bit overwhelming. However, if done right, with just the right balance, you could walk away looking absolutely ravishing.

So before you give this neo grunge look the sidestep, follow the guidance of Carole Colombani, makeup artist for Maybelline and we bet you’ll be wearing this look for many days to come. Who knows it might even become your signature.

STEP 1: A PERFECT COMPLEXION

A successful makeup look has to start with a good base. Take a compact foundation to create a matte effect and don’t forget to contour slightly for definition.

STEP 2: REDESIGNED EYEBROWS

If you’re in a hurry, opt for a brow mascara. Brush the hair upwards and layer the product on to create a more intense effect.

STEP 3: UNSTRUCTURED EYELASHES

Start by applying a liner from the outer corner to the inner corner of the eye. Choose a special volumnising mascara and and use the brush horizontally to swipe your lashes. Then use it vertically with the curved part to separate individual lashes.

STEP 4: A DARK MATTE MOUTH

Exfoliate your lips. Take a dark red matte lipstick and using a lip brush apply the lipstick for a deeper more intense finish.
