Kylie Brown, one of the most down to earth, truly stunning and seemingly ageless women, is a beauty lover like us!
The Instagrammer and beauty therapist has a successful brow business and is a mum of three. Partly for this article and partly for my own curious mind, I got the opportunity to ask her some beauty questions (fangirl moment!). Needless to say, as I was writing this, I had made a list of my next purchases ready to go!
Mecca or Sephora?
“Any store that I could spend hours in, looking and playing with makeup, but I would have to say Mecca is probably my favourite.”
Best Splurge Foundation?
“Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk.“
Best Save Foundation?
“Maybelline Matte and Poreless Fit Me.“
Bold Lip or Bold Eyes?
“Bold eyes.”
Apply Foundation with a brush, sponge or hands?
“All of the above, depending on how my skin is on the day, I spread with a brush, push in with a sponge and work in with fingers.”
Go to Undereye Concealer?
“Smashbox Under Eye Primer is a god-send, however I’m still on the hunt for the perfect concealer that doesn’t settle into my wrinkles. I am using Becca Aqua Luminous Perfecting Concealer at the moment.”
One Beauty Lesson you will pass on to your girls?
“Skin: sunscreen everyday. Makeup: less is more, and don’t let anyone touch your brows!”
Biggest Beauty Blunder?
“Over contouring and over highlighting, I don’t like when contour looks too muddy or highlight looks too extreme. I love the look of fresh, dewy skin and highlight you can only see when the sun or light hits it.”
Karaoke Song?
“Buses and Trains by Bachelor Girl.”
Fave Lipstick?
“Rimmel Moisture Renew in Notting Hill Nude.“
Beauty Lessons you learnt from your Mum?
“Always pop on a little mascara and gloss, you never know who you will run into!”
Your Makeup Style in Three Words?
“Fresh skin, brows and lots of mascara!”
Makeup Trend you wish you could master?
“Winged liner, it just doesn’t suit me at all!”
Go-to Primer?
“Mecca Max Bring on Bright Primer or Laura Mercier Radiance Primer.“
Makeup Trend you are ready to see gone?
“Bold, hectic brows, I really love a natural and brushed up brow where you can see hairstrokes, it’s softer.”
How long does it take you to do your makeup everyday?
“5 minutes easy. For an event though, I love to take my time and really enjoy the process so usually a good hour.”
And finally, how would your besties describe you?
“Thoughtful, caring, determined and sensitive!”
