Foundation:
For this look I chose the Rimmel Wake me up Foundation because it gives quite a sheer-medium coverage and all the VS models have quite light makeup on as their natural beauty is enough! (So let that beauty shine through girl!) You can use a medium coverage, but if you are going for this look, definitely do not go for a full coverage foundation as you want to look pretty,bronzed and ready for runway!
Highlighter:
Because you want to reach the model's amazing high cheekbones, you're going to need some highlighter just to put on the tops of your cheekbones to really bring them out into the spotlight. Also use some in your inner corner to open up your eyes and on your cupids bow to make your lips look extra pouty.
Bronzer/Contour:
All the VS Models have amazing cheekbones and the bronzer really helps to slim their face and accentuate those cheekbones of theirs! You can use the NARS Ita brush to bring them out and soften it with a powder brush (while bronzing the rest of your face). If you wish, you can also contour your nose!
Blush:
Blush is a must when it comes to Victoria's Secret worthy makeup. It gives a nice, pretty glow to your face and softens your look. Choose a pinky/coral shade to really give it the VS Effect.
Lip Gloss/Lacquer:
Although you may choose to wear a nude lipstick, I thought that this Dolce and Gabbana lipgloss was the way to go. In the photos that I chose in my Polyvore set, the models have beautiful glossy lips, which is why I thought that this lip gloss was perfect. But if you are going for the VS look, I don't recommend wearing a bold lip because almost all of their runway looks are quite simple yet gorgeous.
Eyeshadow:
Go for the simplest eyeshadow quad with a lot of nude/natural colours. The palette that I have displayed in my polyvore set is from Chanel and that is basically an idea of the colours that you want to use. The first colour in the above palette (the lightest) can be used as the base and an inner corner highlight. The second colour can be used in the crease/contour of your eye. The third and 4th colours can be used on the 'outer V' of your eye to make the look a bit smokier and intense. (Don't get too intense though!
False Eyelashes:
This is an optional step for 'Getting the VS look', but the eyelashes can be used to make your lashes look a bit fuller and longer. Opt for natural-looking lashes.
Hair Curler:
This is another must have for the VS Look since the models are always seen with perfect loose curls. Wrap thin or thick sections around the wand (depending on how loose you want your curl to be; the thicker the hair, the looser the curl), hold it there for a few seconds and let it go. When you let the curl go, hold the curl in your hands to let it cool. After you're all done, spritz your hair with light hold hairspray.
