What in the violet makeup are we seeing here! Simone Ashley just blew our minds with this monochrome makeup look because we’ve never seen anything like it before. The Bridgerton S2 star is our favourite source of beauty inspo owing to her gorgeous chocolate brown skin and the way she goes for makeup looks that many women of colour refrain from trying out. She’s single handedly proving that brown is beautiful and women with darker complexions need not shy away from vibrant makeup looks ever.
The South-Asian celeb makes a case for purple toned makeup on brown skin just like how pink toned makeup is considered to be natural-looking and flattering on fair skin. We need no more convincing because just look at how stunning it is. The Sex Education star even went as far as matching her makeup to her outift as she rocked a glitzy deep purple sequin and fur dress to the Valentino fashion show at Paris Fashion Week. If you want to ace your beauty game like this stunning celeb, read on!
Simone Ashley’s Monochrome Purple Makeup At Paris Fashion Week
Step 1: Spotlight Skincare
Give your skin a pampering sesh by first using a clay mask and then following up with a CTM routine. Prep your base for makeup with a skincare infused primer. Blend a liquid illuminator and skin tint directly on your skin for a radiant and natural base. Use a lightweight concealer on areas that require extra coverage. Set your base with a makeup setting mist.
Step 2: Arch Act
Groom your arches well as they frame your face and eye makeup. Brush them upwards and outwards with a brow gel product and then fill in any gaps with a brow pencil.
Step 3: Violet Wonder
Apply a tinted eye primer on your lids and then blend a violet eyeshadow stick all over your lids. Use the shade beneath your lower lash lines as well. Define your lash lines with kajal and smoke it out a bit for a sultry smokey eye look. Finish with two coats of mascara.
Step 4: Purple Blush
Add bronzer to your hairline, jawline, and cheekbones for a chiselled effect. Apply purple blush to your cheeks as it looks gorgeous on darker skin tones and also makes this monochrome makeup look work seamlessly. Dab highlighter on the high points of your face.
Step 5: Mauve Move
To complete this purple monochrome makeup look, opt for a mauve lipstick. Begin with exfoliating and moisturising your lips. Then define your lip shape with a brown lip liner and swipe on a mauve lipstick with a creamy finish.
Simone Ashley’s Voluminous Wavy Hairstyle
Bring on your natural hair texture and accentuate it with minimal heat styling to get a glorious wavy mane like Simone Ashley. Rinse your hair with a volume-boosting shampoo and conditioner and then apply a hair serum while your locks are still damp. Let your hair air dry. Use a flat iron to twist and style your hair into waves; it doesn’t have to be evenly sectioned either. Once done, spritz some texturising hairspray and you’re good to go.
