Key Product: Central to this look is Mehron’s Paradise FX™ shade, Dark Matter—a favorite among professional makeup artists for its transformative glow under UV light and clear appearance in the daylight.
When asked about this look she says, “With each of my looks, I strive to find that distinctive element which makes my makeup truly stand out. Whether it's a touch of spookiness, an illusion, or some form of surprise, I always aim to incorporate a twist that sets my looks apart. In these particular looks, I focused on blending the element of surprise with a hint of eeriness, resulting in the disappearing makeup trend!”.
