1. There is nothing more beautiful than a woman who owns her makeup look like Madonna does! She rocks her signature pale skin, flawless black liquid liner, and a natural but not too natural pink lipstick. Known for glamorous look, but never over done, Madonna has been known to have custom lashes made of pure mink fur or even diamonds on her lashes. Sounds dramatic right? Not Madonna! Here is how to get that classic Madonna look:
   
   Step 1: Skin is everything! Treat your skin like the "gold" that it is. Start by wearing sunscreen even to snatch your newspaper from the drive way first thing in the morning. Madonna is known for using a rose water spray on her face daily to calm, soothe and increase circulation. Matte foundation is so early 90's! The new foundation look is natural dewy, so use a cream or liquid foundation finished with a loose powder to set the foundation, but never to give a matte finish. Brighten the face with a soft blue based pink cream blush versus a powder blush to continue with the natural sheen on the skin. Concealer should always keep your eye area soft and supple and never be described as a matte finish. Mix your eye cream with your concealer and then set with a loose powder to have crease-less yet moisturizing concealer

2. Step 2: Madonna's eye makeup is nothing less than classy and sophisticated. Start by prepping your eye with an eye primer and use matte texture eyeshadows only. By using a nude colored eyeshadow all over the eyelid and the crease your focus is now on her famous liquid eyeliner which creates a thick lash line. Next choose a liquid liner that is easiest to use for you, may it be a felt tip applicator or a gel eyeliner applied with an angle brush. Don't forget your false lashes! Use 100% human hair lashes with a couple coats of mascara over them and your natural lashes so they blend just like Madonna's.

3. Step 3: That perfect pinkie lip, how does she do it? She is not a gloss girl, she is more of a sheer lipstick with moisture kinda gal. Madge cannot be seen touching up in public, so she needs a great lip primer followed by a cream waterproof lip liner and blended with the sheer just bit into a berry lipstick.
