Alexandra Burke’s Pretty Berry Look

Posted by: TwiceasNice / December 16, 2011 15:28


Sometimes too much of anything can be a bad thing, but if it’s berry tones in a makeup look–the more the merrier! Alexandra Burke was recently spotted at the World Premiere of Luxury Alliance at Kensington Palace wearing the hue on her eyes, cheeks, and lips. How did she pull it off?

Since Alexandra is rocking different finishes, it doesn’t look like one monotone, washed-out look. For the eyes she used a soft matte pinky-berry, on the cheeks a luminous cranberry, and the lips are a creamy reddish berry with a touch of shine. Not only is a look like this perfect for the holidays, it works on a multitude of skin tones.

You can even steal her look with Sleek MakeUP’s The Berry Collection kit. The set comes with a radiant powder blush, a lasts-through-drinks and I-can’t-believe-this-is-matte-because-it’s-so-creamy lipstick, and a jumbo kohl pencil that can double as an eyeshadow. To get Burke’s highlighted look, grab a creamy concealer about a shade or two lighter than your skin tone and apply it under the brow bone, under the eyes, and right above the cheekbones. Carefully blend so the look is seamless.
