Berlin nights are sticky. Berlin nights leave a pulsing patina in the depths of our heads. There is no beginning nor end since the rising sun quite often only serves to present last night’s events in the proper light. We love Berlin. Amazingy is based in Berlin. My ode to our capital today will be complemented by a styling – with these words I shall welcome you to my first Look for Amazingy Magazine.

Let’s start off with the unembellished truth: Model Deborah has beautiful skin made by mother nature which renders any kind of foundation redundant. However, if you happen to have spent the night in Berghain, you’ll need some good concealer under your eyes. For this purpose I chose one of my favourite products, the rms beauty ‘Un’Cover Up (No.22) to hide last night’s traces as well as some minor red patches. ‘Un’Cover Up blends in perfectly with the natural skintone so I used No.44 as a bronzer under the cheekbones, on the forehead and the bridge of the nose, setting it with HIRO Honey Pon as a last step. For the cheeks I used the rms Lip Shine Moment. A soft tulipwood shade which subtly accentuates the cheeks without being too ‘loud’ and deflecting attention from the prominent and ‘sticky’ eye make up (Those of you who know my blog should be well-familiar with my smokey eyes obsession!). For this sensual look I applied the rms cream eye shadow Karma to the movable lid strongly diffusing the outside edges right up until the brow bone.

In the middle I used the shade Seduce, a metallic brown, giving the whole look more depth and reflexion. I brightened and accentuated the inner eye corner with Solar (both again from rms beauty).
In order to really pull off the smokey eye effect you need to bring out the lower lashes. A nicely blended mix of rms Karma and Seduce works great here. Cheekbones, the bridge of the nose and the upper lip were highlighted with the cream eye shadow Lunar, a subtle pearl gold. Important! LOTS of mascara – here I used the shade Espresso by Honeybee Gardens. Last but not least Deborah is wearing a mix between ILIA Beauty Lipstick Humble Me and ILIA Tinted Lip Conditioner In Paradise. Humble Me is a nice nude which in fact works beautifully by itself without making the lips appear ‘dead’ but why not inject the night something paradisical?

Have fun trying this look out and enjoy the wonderful sunrise!

Most cordially,

Dunja for Amazingy and Berlin nights

Note: The Sheswai nail polish What perfectly completes the look in colour and verbally. So WHAT?!

Note²: The Honeybee mascara is easily removed with warm water and keeps the lashes nicely in shape. Bathroom nights are finally rescued – Hallelujah!
