The Sophisticated Curly Hair MakeoverTotalBeauty.com reader Theresa goes from boring, frizzy curls to hip, sun-kissed waves -- see her dramatic hair and makeup transformation |
The makeup Theresa doesn't normally wear a lot of makeup, so Hollier gives her a simple look that emphasizes her natural features and coloring. She does this by playing up Theresa's eyelashes and brows.
To set the stage for color, Hollier mixes moisturizer with foundation and applies it all over Theresa's skin with a foundation brush for light, natural-looking coverage. She then dabs concealer (try Paul & Joe Beaute Stick Concealer, $24.80) under her eyes and on any imperfections to even out her skin tone. Next, Hollier fills in Theresa's brows to create fullness with a gel eyebrow kit like La Bella Donna Complete Brow Kit in Brunette, $40. Hollier then uses black eyeliner to line Theresa's lash line and an angled brush to smudge it a bit for a less rigid look. After curling her lashes and applying a few coats of black mascara, Hollier dusts the apples of Theresa's cheeks with a bit of apricot blush and slicks her lips in a sheer lip gloss.

she looks cute and all, but what do her natural curls look like after all this?

Great look for her but this girl is a pretty basic type,pretty low maintenance and what do you do to her? You process her hair,straighten it and than curl it to your liking! That is something she could have done whenever she wanted to but she obviously did not want to,she does not need you to do that,she most likely wanted you to show her the simplest yet most effective way to style her naturals curls. I have straight hair and I hate straightening it out,I can only imagine how it is boring and frustrating to straighten curly hair,and why changing the natural texture of the hair???
