Ayla x Manasi 7 look: Stepping into Fall
Created by Manasi7 founder & makeup artist Susanne Manasi
We could not be bigger fans of the culty Swedish makeup brand Manasi7 and the deeply thoughtful makeup artist who developed it. We always look forward to the seasonal looks that Susanne puts together for us, and they've just become better and better as the Manasi7 range has grown.
This fall, the look she created for Ayla celebrates glowing skin, with her newest All Over Colour shade in Pacaya — inspired by the Scandinavian just-bitten look of naturally stained lips — playing a key role.
As autumn approaches, the days grow shorter, temperatures drop, and the leaves begin to change their hues. Nature is shifting from the warmth of summer to the cooler, windier days of fall. During these seasonal changes, it's important to take extra steps to support your immune system and overall well-being. Since we can’t change the rhythm of nature, it’s essential to adjust ourselves to it.
However, that doesn't mean you can't hold on to your summer glow a little longer. Healthy, glowing skin starts from within. To keep your skin in top condition, stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water and focus on eating nourishing foods. A natural, radiant complexion is the foundation for any post-summer makeup look.
1. Start by prepping and priming your skin with Manasi 7 Botanical Multi Balm Kaede.
2. To achieve an effortless, even skin tone, mix any of the Skin Enhancer shades into your perfect match for your skin tone. Apply with fingers or foundation brush. As a concealer, apply the Skin Enhancer with fingers or concealer brush on areas that need more coverage.
3. Apply Bronzelighter Roseate under cheekbones, under chin, and on the temples to enhance your summer glow into fall. For a little extra shine, add any of the Strobelighter shades that match your skin tone on the bridge of your nose and high points of the cheeks.
4. Swipe Silk Finish Powder Translucent on eyelids and on the T-zone of the face for setting your complexion base.
5. Apply Eye Glow Colour Ochaya on the eyelid and/or close to the lash line, both on lower and upper lash lines. Blend out for a soft-focus effect.
6. Apply All Over Colour Pacaya on cheeks and lips, using fingers or a brush, for a post-summer fresh look. Finish off with a tiny amount of All Over Shine Cristallo on top of Pacaya for a subtle glossy finish.
7. Curl your lashes and apply Precision Mascara Obsidian on eyelashes. Start with lower lashes, let it dry, and then apply one layer on upper lashes.
