Gemini Zodiac Makeup Tutorial

Hey there, makeup enthusiasts! It's Pauline here, back with another exciting installment of our Zodiac makeup series. As we bid farewell to Taurus season, we're now entering the lively Gemini season. Today, I'm thrilled to bring you a makeup look inspired by the playful and outgoing nature of Gemini. So, let's dive right in and see how we can embrace our spontaneous side through this vibrant look.

Embracing Spontaneity

As someone who has many Gemini friends, I've always admired their curious and fun-loving spirit. Geminis are known for their spontaneity, and I wanted to capture that essence in this makeup look. So, join me as we embark on this creative journey and let our instincts guide us.

To start off, I'm going to let my intuition guide me in selecting the makeup products for this look. I have my Subtl Beauty stack pieces laid out in front of me, and I'm going to trust my first impressions. As a Taurus myself, who tends to be slow and steady, I'm excited to infuse a bit more of Gemini's energetic vibe into my routine.

Creating a Radiant Base

With a foundation base already applied, I feel the need for some concealer to brighten up my under-eye area. I love how Subtl's concealer applies effortlessly with my fingertips, providing a natural finish. Oh, I just remembered I have the Bloomfield shade, a deeper concealer from Subtl. Today, I'm going to use it as a cream contour. It's been a while since I've experimented with this technique, but I can't wait to show you how easily you can build a contour line using concealer. Let's set it with the Chai bronzer from Subtl for a beautiful and defined contour.

Playful Eye and Cheek Choices

Now, it's time to let our instincts take over. The first Lip and Cheek shade that caught my eye is Perfectly Pink. I'm going to use it as a cream base for my eyes, followed by a touch of glitter eyeshadow from Subtl. Geminis are known for their confidence in decision-making, even when it's spontaneous. Let's embrace that energy and have some fun with this vibrant pink shade, perfect for the summer season.

Feeling a little adventurous, I'm going to try something new. I spotted the Plum Lip and Cheek shade, and I'm going to apply it to my outer corner for an unexpected pop of color. It's a spontaneous move that the Taurus in me wouldn't typically make, but YOLO. Wow, it looks cute! Let's add a touch of Jelly shimmer eyeshadow as a highlighter too, because why not? It's all about being spontaneous and having fun with our makeup choices.

Our Gemini-inspired look wouldn't be complete without the Riveting Red Lip and Cheek shade. Let's apply it to our lips, and for an extra touch, add a bit of Perfectly Pink in the middle to highlight and create a playful effect. The result is a fun and spontaneous look that truly captures the Gemini spirit.

Final Touches

Before we wrap up, let's not forget to apply mascara and groom our eyebrows. Ah, I can't resist! I just noticed the deeper shade in the Dune duo, and I think it would look fabulous on my lash line. As makeup artists, we often try to recreate looks precisely, but let's not forget the joy of experimenting and trying new things. I'm absolutely loving this unexpected addition. A quick touch-up on the outer corners, and now it's time for mascara and brow buffing.

Embodying Gemini Energy

Voila! Here we have it – a spontaneous, fun, and outgoing Gemini-inspired look. Although it might seem a bit all over the place, I believe we've brought it all together to create a unique vibe. I hope this tutorial inspires you to tap into your inner Gemini, whether you're a Gemini yourself or not. Embrace the joy of playing with makeup, get to know your Subtl Beauty stacks even better, and stay tuned for more Zodiac-inspired looks throughout the year. Bye, everyone!
