Simplicity at its finiest, I always enjoy working on the Gold Boutique shoots as I really resonate with the paired back feel they go for in the makeup brief. I created this look for their summer 2022 campaign, but I’m reviving it for Autumn 2023 because its got the perfect tonal cappuccino vibe to suit whats trending this season.
That being said, what’s in fashion and what’s not, I’ll never tire of this look. The golds and browns are timeless, but added with a delicate touch of eyeliner all you need is thick tights tucked into knee high boots and it’s practically screaming Autumn.
Gold Boutique are based here in the UK and their jewellery philosophy is quality, design and affordability. It’s the exact sort of mentally I went into work with that day on set! Quality is all about getting the base right, using Weleda’s Skinfood to prep the canvas this moisturiser has such intense hydrating properties without the greasiness, it layers beautifully under makeup for the majority of skin types.
Design was where the colour came in, intentionally using little product that would go along way for a barely there radiance. SUQQU’s Shimmer Liquid range of Blusher and Highlighters is ideal for a well diffused feel when paired with the Jo Leversuch Multi Use Brush to get the application looking seamless.
Affordability is huge point for a lot of us who are putting on makeup on a regular basis, and using a minimal product approach is my favourite way to make makeup more accessible to every one. In my experience, picking up higher quality products that you know will do the same job as several different cheaper products will save you in the long run.
Ariane Poole’s Ultimate Face Tint is a great example of this, running at a slightly higher price point than your average high street complexion purchase at £29.50. This powerhouse of product is incredibly priced for its versatility as depending on your needs it can perform as a primer, tinted moisturiser, BB Cream, CC Cream and a foundation! Using the Jo Leversuch Detailed Brush means I waste as little product as possible with the accurate brush tip that doesn’t absorb all your makeup, so I can apply a small amount and still achieve an incredible coverage.
