Here’s How To Up Your Masked Makeup Game
Eye contouring skills required
In NSW we’ve thankfully made it this far without making masks compulsory. However, just like how a piece of jewellery can complete your look, masks have fast become a staple accessory and a global fashion statement. You can nab fashionable masks from a majority of your favourite brands all the way from the top luxury houses down to newly established labels.
2020 has become the year of eyeshadow palettes and colourful eye makeup trends because no one is wasting their time on face contouring anymore; no one sees it anyway, right?
We asked our resident MUA, Verity G to dive deep into her imagination and she’s risen to the challenge with four epic mask appropriate looks.
