A modern take on a 60's peachy look

This is a copy of a look I created for the beauty pages of UK Glamour recently. It was my favourite look in the story and as it was so simple and relatively quick, (and I've had lots of requests from people asking me how to achieve it) I thought it would make a good tutorial.

The highlight is definitely the lip colour. It's not the easiest colour to wear so you can dupe this with a similar but gentler alternative and still achieve a really good result if you like. The overall look of the make-up is peachy soft and flirty. The spirit was definitely a little bit Catherine Deneuve, but done in a modern way. If you are good with your hair try to team it with a style similar to the one the model is wearing and you will be transported back to the era.

This style is definatly my favourite, both to wear on me and to apply on somebody else, i love the way you did it!!! i have one thing to add though, i would still sculpt the cheekbone a little. I have oval face with round cheeks [not like your fabulous cheekbones] so i guess you understand my objection.

elliganzweitweg - Wednesday 25th Aug 2010 11:24pm

do u think i can also wear peachy lipstick even though i'm really pale? pale and pastel colours always make me look dead and boring. i love the peachy lip and would love it even more if i could pull it off. i know, its a stupid question cos u dont know what i look like. thanks anyway for your great tutorials.

@AlicelnWonderIand Top Shop Make-up has a nice pale one called Desert x

AlicelnWonderIand - Sunday 25th Jul 2010 7:12am

What other matte peachy lipsticks would you recommend ?

TabbyUK - Thursday 15th Jul 2010 12:51am

if anybody was wondering, the model's name is Tetyana Piskun she's one of my favourite models :)

victoriaviolette - Tuesday 13th Jul 2010 11:46pm

this is so cool you always do photos for Vogue and the pictures are fantastic. when i look at the posters i doubt they are actual human because it's just too too pretty!

Algeriianbeauty - Sunday 11th Jul 2010 4:50pm

I really want that lipstick, ive been searching for a light orange! I dunno whether to get Illamasqua sonnet, brink or obey, but then i want obey on here, but when i see other swatches it looks pink! Please help!!? x

tinyyuki - Wednesday 5th May 2010 11:34pm

I really think your tutorials are great! I've just subscribed. Also I really think you look like a mix between Natalie Portman and Stacie Orrico

iluvpenguins007 - Monday 3rd May 2010 10:22am

i cant get over how beautiful and natural you look

lahliie - Wednesday 28th Apr 2010 11:48pm

DrDeeliciouz - Friday 26th Mar 2010 10:26am

sweetPrincessSissi - Thursday 25th Mar 2010 10:19pm

beautiful woman =)

sassyandsorted - Thursday 18th Mar 2010 7:27pm

what brushes do you use in this video? The look is beautiful, you are one of my favourite makeup artists because you make the looks achievable. Plus I love No7!xx

NoMoreStupidNicks - Wednesday 10th Mar 2010 10:00pm

Gorgeous look, love the peachiness, the elongated eyelashes and the retro taste of it :)

JENNYBOWKERMAKEUP - Sunday 7th Mar 2010 7:03am

Stunning!!! I'm absolutely going to get the lippie and your nail color. You are gorgeous!

blackgardenia24 - Sunday 7th Mar 2010 5:43am

Great Tip for the Lashes, I'll have to try that... also Loved the lipstick very bright chalky. Peace~

flushed1977 - Saturday 6th Mar 2010 9:16pm

Lisa, your awesome! Loving your videos! 5* and subbed x

shelleykerr83 - Friday 5th Mar 2010 8:09pm

Hi Lisa, I got myself the mymix foundation also, in fair 02 and it's beautiful. I had been thinking about trying it for a while and after hearing your comments on it I just went out and bought it (Boots in Belfast, Northern Ireland stock the mymix range). The blushes, lipsticks and glosses are also beautiful. Thank you for this video x

KayweeFay - Thursday 4th Mar 2010 10:55pm

that lipstick looks amazing on you ! :)

mrsjayousi - Sunday 28th Feb 2010 1:50pm

its lovely however honest opinion.. it would look nicer if you defined your eyebrows a little bit more..it would really frame your face

samjones0528 - Friday 26th Feb 2010 7:36pm

i really need a peach blush, getting a bit bored of my usual pink

ajdukujac - Friday 26th Feb 2010 12:26pm

thanks alot for your reply :)

mizzworthy - Friday 26th Feb 2010 1:42am

Maybe lover by Illamasqua? I don't own Peaches but Lover seems comparable from the look in the video?

bexiboox - Thursday 25th Feb 2010 10:33pm

Stunning! and it looks beautiful on you x

ajdukujac - Thursday 25th Feb 2010 4:38pm

as here in croatia i have no access to mac, is there any illamasqua blush that is similar to this one? thanks alot!

ajdukujac - Thursday 25th Feb 2010 4:37pm

all i have to say is WOOOOW. thanks for your videos, makes me so happy any time i watch them. i wish you could do makeup on me when i visit london :) please do another video for that look with brigitte bardot eyeliner. muah from croatia!

lisaeldridgedotcom - Thursday 25th Feb 2010 8:15am

@mqs7524 thanks! The 'red lips' ring is made by Solange Azagury-Partridge, she has a shop in London and New York x

Bluefairy0173 - Thursday 25th Feb 2010 1:34am

Hi Lisa Great Look ! Love Peaches & Cream Colors always makes the skin look bright and youthful thank you for this video :D oxox Melinda

jewel166 - Wednesday 24th Feb 2010 1:08am

Love the look - the lipstick is fabulous! I already have Peaches blush so I'm halfway there with the color. Fantastic

03mowens - Tuesday 23rd Feb 2010 10:03pm

I loved the makeup in these pages, i tried to create some myself... i did the blue under the lower lash line, and the girl who was wearing leopard print and had a pony tail, with lots of lashes.. Love watching your videos, im so happy iv got to find out what products you used in that picture. Really like the lipstick,think i might have to get it... help with appying the individual lashes would be great, mine were ok for my first time but could be much better. Thanks again xx

mqs7524 - Tuesday 23rd Feb 2010 9:46pm

Beautiful! Goes so well with your nail color. BTW, that ring is fantastic! Do you know where I can get it? Tnx a bunch. :-)

TheSukiebapswent - Tuesday 23rd Feb 2010 9:44pm

I have a major problem when I apply mascara, I always manage to get some on my upper eyelids, even though I hold my head right back ( ow my neck!!) is it the brush?? is there a better position to hold your head in? It really is a pain

TheSukiebapswent - Tuesday 23rd Feb 2010 9:42pm

lashes are fantastic

MiZzDeeRoCkZ - Tuesday 23rd Feb 2010 4:36am

i really love the lipstick but im not sorry if i can pull it off lol im sort of a medium skinned tone a nc40 what do you think?

delialupan - Tuesday 23rd Feb 2010 12:45am

Fantastic look!

ChooLove09 - Monday 22nd Feb 2010 10:49pm

Gorgeous! I also liked the first look you did for that story, the one with the bluey/lavender colour under the eyes. I rarely do a strong lip but this is one I can definitely have a go at. This is another colour to add to the shopping list when my boyf goes to Brum tomorrow! Btw, you're definitely prettier than the model x

veedebee - Monday 22nd Feb 2010 10:42pm

I love this look, I had a phase of this look when I was younger. I love the formatt of your videos, really great to watch, thanks

sinsinx12 - Monday 22nd Feb 2010 10:13pm

you are so talented, i just wanted to ask the picture of the model, which glamour magazine issue is that from?? old or recent one and also where can we buy illamasqua products in the UK? :)

lisaeldridgedotcom - Monday 22nd Feb 2010 9:45pm

@beautymusicfashion its a new limited edition one by No7 called 'Cocktail Dress' which comes out around April time and is part of the 7 Decades collection x

lisaeldridgedotcom - Monday 22nd Feb 2010 9:31pm

@mizzworthy yeah it works wonders...hold your nerve and keep it there for ages massaging away! Thanks for commenting x

lisaeldridgedotcom - Monday 22nd Feb 2010 9:30pm

@jadoreXelle it is, you can get it on the MAC website. I love it too x

lisaeldridgedotcom - Monday 22nd Feb 2010 9:29pm

@hlakram You're so right!! The last time I bought it they said it was being discontinued so I bought several. However I just checked their website and its still there??! I'm pleased because I love it. Thanks for the tip off x

mizzworthy - Monday 22nd Feb 2010 9:13pm

Lovely look Lisa - I have been using the trick of "massaging" the mascara wand at the roots, and it has a great look on the lashes - I think I need to carry on practicing though as I keep ending up with mascara on my upper lid! Fab vid as always!

jadoreXelle - Monday 22nd Feb 2010 9:10pm

what blush is that specifically? where can i get it?is it available in the us? i love it

hlakram - Monday 22nd Feb 2010 9:06pm

Hmm, Peaches is still available.

beautymusicfashion - Monday 22nd Feb 2010 8:53pm

What nail polish are you wearing? great video! love the blush and the lips

adoringcarmine - Monday 22nd Feb 2010 8:49pm

can you reccomend a foundation for very, very light skin... an off white basically, thanks :)

stellarstrawberry19 - Monday 22nd Feb 2010 7:23pm

I do love a good statement lip. Perhaps it's worth considering blending some of the lip colour onto the cheek if that blusher is no longer available? -saves money to! :)

NvrSettle - Monday 22nd Feb 2010 6:44pm

Ur vids are amazing

lovealotx - Monday 22nd Feb 2010 6:29pm

Fantastic work again!

carolas68 - Monday 22nd Feb 2010 6:27pm

Wonderful look Lisa :)

LenaKemp - Monday 22nd Feb 2010 6:21pm

sometimes i tap some gold glitter over the eyelid on this beautiful make up so it looks more like a summer make up :)

happycharm - Monday 22nd Feb 2010 6:05pm

SydellexX - Monday 22nd Feb 2010 5:48pm

Thankyou for sharing, truly gorgeous as usual. Thankyou so much for taking the time to make these videos. It's really appreciated! And it's nice to see someone from the uk doing them, we need representation! haha xx

nadine924 - Monday 22nd Feb 2010 3:10pm

great tutorial!

NightingalesSong - Monday 22nd Feb 2010 1:42pm

that is a really gorgeous look! thank you for sharing. what eyebrow color do you recommend for black eyebrows to let them look natural. Grey?

4theluvofmakeup - Monday 22nd Feb 2010 12:08pm

You are awesome and I feel so fortunate to have found out about you and your channel. Thanks for all the expert advice!!

Glamoroux - Monday 22nd Feb 2010 11:55am

You are so beautiful! I am happy that you have decided to show us, beauty bloggers and gurus, your tips and tricks. It is sad that some professionals think they are better than girls who are not makeup artists and do makeup reviews, because we are just not qualified to say our opinion out there. You really give inspiration to us and thank you for that, Lisa!

bubblegarms - Monday 22nd Feb 2010 11:54am

Great video, I get so happy when I see you have made a video :) Love the look, very pretty! I loved all the beauty shots in Glamour, but that opening picture with the lilac /blue e/s was very special. Thanks for the video, you are a pleasure to watch! X

britafg - Monday 22nd Feb 2010 11:44am

beautiful look lisa loved it thanks very much

annaroberta1986 - Monday 22nd Feb 2010 11:42am

hi!!! the lipstick is gorgeous!!! It's seems the same that Audrey Hepburn wears in "Breakfast at Tiffany's! I can't buy the lipstick by Illamasuqua because the brand is not available in italy. do you know if mac has a lipstick with similar colour? thank you!!! ^^

videogeek55 - Monday 22nd Feb 2010 10:48am

I'm amazed that your lashes look so good without eyeliner!

Cupcake4me - Monday 22nd Feb 2010 10:44am

Love EVERYTHING you do Lisa !The 60's look really suits you...beautiful. We always admire the pictures in magazines thinking " how so we do that...." so thank you !

nanelarya - Monday 22nd Feb 2010 10:40am

This is beautiful, the lip color is amazing.

nehmesys - Monday 22nd Feb 2010 9:21am

you are as amazing as always! don't you think that Dior shadows last an incredibly low amount of time even if you use a good primer?

mgparis - Monday 22nd Feb 2010 8:47am

I LOVE your videos, thanks so much for making them! you're so talented as well as gorgeous - and I love your voice too :)

chinesechicken89 - Monday 22nd Feb 2010 7:44am

Thank you for the tutorial Lisa! We are so lucky to have a make up artist of your level here. This lip colour is absolutely fabulous! Do you think you could also do a look with an orange based lipstick?(like Hara from Napoleon Perdis, or Morange from MAC). I love it and am fairly brave with bright lip colours,but not sure how to make this one wearable. And also, can pale people pull it off? (I have pink undertones, but they're mostly neutralised with my yellow based foundation). Thank you!

angelAisif - Monday 22nd Feb 2010 6:51am

omg i am soo grateful and happy u did this look! i fell in love with it in glamour and never thought i'd see how its done xxxxxx thanks so much!!
