On Tuesday I was lucky enough to spend two hours with Givenchy's regional makeup artist Joseph Dosh
Joseph Dosh is known to have worked with big celebrities such as: Liv Tyle, Olsen twins, Haifa Wahibi, Najwa Karam and many more.
He gave me a couple of great makeup pointer and tips, and answered many of my questions, I mostly had questions on contouring the face, he did a full makeup makeover for me, that was a tutorial for me aswell
I wanna share with you some of the products he used on and recommended:
So first things first: Foundation
When it comes to foundation, the main thing I look for is a matte finish, I hate foundations that make you glow and give sorta of an oily look, so Joseph told me I was in luck because the new givenchy foundation:
Eclat Matissime is espically designed for oily and combination skin and makes sure you have a shine free coverage throughtout the day, when he tried it on me, I was pretty impressed because usually liquid foundations dont seem to give me that matte look, so I got this foundation and the compact powder aswell
Contouring powder and eye shadow
So my main concern was contouring, I usually use a bronzing powder and a liquid highlighter, but Joseph used this compact powder: Le Prisme Visage mat, and I liked it alot as it didnt have the shine and carroty color my bronzer has, and for the highlighting he used a liquid highlighter, so I will just stick to my liquid higlighter from YSL, and to contour I got the compact powder he used. For the eyes I made it pretty clear I like earthy tones, am not a fan of bold colors on the eyes, so I fell in love with this eye shadow palette he chose.
and here is what I loved the most: Givenchy Mist Me Gently
So you know how sometimes after applying makeup you feel its too much or too thick, and after say an hour when it gets absorbed into the skin you feel it looks more blended in and natural? Well this last step Joseph did made the same miracle in just one minutes, he used this mist after he finished applying the makeup, and then he fanned it, and yaay I got that same effect as if the makeup has been magically blended into my skin, now this is a must have for everyone! You can spray it with makeup on or without for that little glow!
I really enjoyed those two hours with Joseph and time just flew by and I still had millions of questions!
If you would like to watch makeup tutorials by him, then youtube Joseph Dosh and you will find some
