“Take a little bit of concealer/foundation, and apply where you need it the most,” Ramos said. “Put a little bit under the eyes and all over the lid to make the skin very even. It should be lovely and fresh so for the most part, leave it as it is.” He used

Apply blush in a letter “C” shape, sweeping from the apple of the cheek up to the temple. “This is a fresh color that I think anybody could wear,” said Ramos of Tom Ford Cheek Color in Love Lust ($56). “It’s a pinky coral.” Source: Caroline Voagen Nelson

To create a colored eyeliner look, Ramos started with a thick eyeliner in the choice hue — Tom Ford Defining Eye Pencil in Metallic Moss ($36). The “simple green” as Ramos described was applied only to the top lid. Source: Caroline Voagen Nelson

“Set the eyeliner with a shiny eye shadow in the same color to add a bit of drama and make it last longer,” explained Ramos. He used a pointed brush to go over the line and then smudged it to create that rocker look. Source: Caroline Voagen Nelson

“Finish with a long-lasting waterproof mascara — just to give you a little bit more of a sexy look,” noted Ramos. To apply, put the brush at the root of the lashes, wiggle it a bit, and stroke it upwards. Feather the ends out slightly. Source: Caroline Voagen Nelson

“At the start of the day, I would not do the lipstick,” said Ramos. “But for an afternoon or evening out — why not? It spices it up a bit.” He applied a hot pink lipstick — Tom Ford Lip Color Sheer in Incorrigible ($49) — with a brush, first outlining her pout and then filling it in for a clean look.
