Yes, you may have already heard the goss. Makeup Revolution has teamed up with the *ultimate* glam beauty Youtuber, The Plastic Boy (AKA Gary) to bring you a glamorous collection that will take you from day to night… *puurrrrr*
Here is your five-step tutorial to achieving the iconic Plastic Boy glam makeup look using this iconic collection.
STEP 1: PREP AND PRIME
The key to good makeup always starts with preparation. Finding a good primer is essential to achieving a flawless base and long-lasting makeup. The skin adhesive primer smooths out the skin and creates a tacky base for your makeup to sit all day.
Pro tip - after applying the primer allow it to sit on the skin for a few minutes before you apply makeup. (Apply with fingers instead of a brush to make it melt into the skin better)
STEP 2: PERFECT YOUR COMPLEXION
Now your preparation is done you need a foundation that provides flawless, long-lasting coverage. The skin adhesive primer is perfectly paired with the IRL FOUNDATION .
This best-selling foundation is enriched with niacinamide, it is oil-free, shine-free, creaseproof, life-proof and smudge-proof, providing 16 hours wear time from day to night. You can find your perfect foundation match using our shade finder .
STEP 3: SOFT GLAM BRONZEY EYESHADOW
The Plastic Boy Forever Flawless Palette offers a range of gorgeously rich and warm tones from nudes, to bronzes, to browns that look perfect on all skin tones (so don’t be afraid to experiment with those shades, gwourrrl! The shades have been personally named by Gary so you can ‘SLAY’ like a ‘BADDIE’ and be ‘THE MOMENT’ ‘OKURRRR’. Gary uses the shade ‘MADNESS’ as a transition shade using a fluffy blending brush.
Then, using a pencil brush, he deepens the crease of his lid with ‘SIP AND SLAY’. For even more drama, you can deepen the look further with ‘PURRRR’. The lid is topped with ‘W.IT.W.’ in the centre using a flat brush (iykyk). You can now finish off the eye with some lashes, guuurl. These wispies are perfect for that flirty, sultry eye.
STEP 4: GLOW BABY, GLOW!
It wouldn’t be bronze glam without some highlight. We can’t all be blessed with Gary’s beautiful cheekbones - but we can fake it! Using a fluffy highlighter brush.
you want to apply the highlight onto the highest point of your cheekbone, across the brow bone and a little on the nose. This will leave you looking like the most scrumptious glazed doughnut.
STEP 5: THOSE LIPS ARE GIVING!
The Plastic Boy Collection includes two lip kits; Hazelnut Macchiato and Almond Macchiato (we’ll take both, please). Each Lip Kit contains a lip liner, lipstick and lip gloss making it easy to achieve the perfect nude lip. The Hazelnut Macchiato Lip Kit is a gorgeous 90’s chocolatey-brown and the Almond Macchiato is a delicious caramel nude. It’s impossible to choose a favourite, so you can also combine the lip kits to create your own customised coffee-inspired lips.
