The Cover STORIES

Golden Hour Guest

The RSVP is sent. The gift from the couple’s registry secured. Even your outfit is sorted. What should you shift your attention to now? Your wedding guest makeup look of course. Whilst this will ultimately be determined by your outfit, Code8’s Global Head of Artistry, Sasha Ghodstinat, has devised THE go-to look to compliment almost every colour palette, pairing a clean beauty look with a pop of colour.

Bronzer

As always, we start with your base, this time opting for our cult Radiate Beauty Balm. Somewhere between a tinted moisturiser and a foundation, this buildable, lightweight, velvety-smooth formula can be applied in seconds (using just your fingertips!) for a radiant, second-skin finish.

Pair this with our Seamless Cover Concealer to brighten the under-eye area and a touch of our Summer Glow Bronze Powder across the high points of the face, where the sun would naturally hit, for the ultimate sunkissed glow. Now add a flush of colour to the cheeks with our Blush Palette; our Rosé compact includes a highlighter shade to dial up the luminosity of the look.

We’ve chosen to keep the eyes subtle (and let your lips do all the talking, you’ll see!). With our Iconoclast Eyeshadow Palette in Burnt Sienna, you can sweep a wash of colour across the lids or even wet your brush to have more control over the shape you create, from a graphic moment to imitating eyeliner.

Completing the look is Glazé, a smudge-free, vitamin-infused, highly pigmented lacquer with the most creamy, wearable texture. To add a pop of colour to the look, we chose Gala, a true blue-red shade, for an effortlessly chic finish.
