How do i achieve a modern day grecian goddess makeup look without using gold? helpp!!?

Question

i know, its weird- not using gold. but the dress i am wearing is a grecian style dress- and is down to the floor white silk. with silver/ austrian crystal sequins on the straps that flow down the back because the dress is also backless. my hairstyle is also grecian. if it helps any. i have blonde hair. deep brown eyes. and a fairly light skin complexion. if you have any suggestions it would be greatly appreciated. thankss so muchh!

Answer 1

Use a foundation that is not matte . I am not sure of your skin type but using cream foundation tends to give a dewy look. You can also look dewy from applying moisturizer and mixing it with your fountaion using a sponge.
I like adding this product other companies make simular ones its like a bronzer

I would try some pinks and browns for the shadow on your eyes like the pallette here called bliss but whatever brand you use will do

then lipstick in a color like glam or playful
a quick trick I learned to look like a glowing goddess is to use lipstick or cream blush.
Good luck

Answer 2

Use a shimmery lotion like Jergens shimmery lotion all over. It comes in a white bottle with a gold lid. Next, apply bronzer to your chest, shoulders and of course instead of blush use bronzer. Instead of a gold eyeshadow try a nude eye like a neutral eyeshadow that has high shimmery reflective pigments(MAC Paints is Bare Canvas or Still Life, MAC Eyeshadow in Retrospeck or Romp) You can also try the nude shimer with some browns try MAC Eyeshadow Palette in Amazon Eyes . Line the top of your eyes with a strong black liquid or gel liner. You could also use false eyelashes. Line your lower lash line with a soft dark brown or black pencil liner. Use a matte natural lip color. The look is a twist of sunkissed and natural. You don't have to exactly use MAC but at least my description will give you an idea. You can view the colors here: http://www.maccosmetics.com/templates/products/mp.tmpl?CATEGORY_ID=CATEGORY15103

for lips: try MAC Lipstick in Lame or Cosmo

easy.... usea bronze shimmery face powder.... first apply liquid foundation... then add the bronze shimmery face powder which would make the effect grecian and you dont even have to use gold ... i had the same problem then my make up artist did.... so i had the best dressed!
