"Hi I'm Leah Cornwall from Refuel Spa on behalf on Expert Village. In this segment we'll be learning more about natural beauty products and application. Now when choosing you lipstick again that client consultation is going to make or break this application. But color is a very personal thing and again applying red lipstick to someone who wears chapstick everyday is going to put them into a shock and most likely they will hate there application. Now with our client because i get to do what ever i want to her. We chose a Smokey eye so with that Smokey eye the key is to really create this really nice luscious pouty lip to go along with it without adding pigment. Once we add alot of pigment were going to start looking clownish or like we applied alot of makeup. So the color I'm chosen today actually has some cool under tones it going to match her skin. It's also going to go along the eye color i chose and also the green in her eyes so it also has a little plum to it the very wet look a little luscious on the lips. I'm going to use are young blood lip applicator. And I'm just going to apply a little directly to the lips here. And you can see it's still giving pigment without being outrageous or a very vibrant color and it's going to keep it very neutral yet still give definition to the lips. And were going to get our client to press her lips together. And at that point it sometimes gets a little smush but we need her to do that for definition purposes and you can see that right off lips without being to dramatic and balance out the look. Watch our next segment to learn more about beauty products."
