Ready to go full glam with your makeup look this Eid? Discover beauty icon and influencer Sabina Hannan’s tutorial on how to achieve this show-stopping, shimmery look.
Step one
Begin by shaping your brows with the Kevyn Aucoin Sensual Skin Enhancer. Using a flat brush, sharpen and outline your brows to define their shape, and cover up any stray hairs, before blending out the concealer with a small fluffy brush.
Step two
Now it’s time to prime your eyelids. Using the Sensual Skin Enhancer, take a generous amount on a flat brush and apply all over the lids to prime and prepare them for shadow. Blend out with a damp beauty blender for a seamless application.
Step three
It’s important to always start a bold eye makeup look with a transition shade. Using the Urban Decay Naked Reloaded Palette, take the shade Boundaries and apply all over the lids with a fluffy brush, buffing out in circular motions.
Step four
Next, take the shade End Game and apply it to the outer corners of your lids, starting in the outer corner and bringing it inwards with gentle circular motions.
If your shadow has gone slightly astray at this point, don’t panic! Simply use the shade Blur from the same palette to gently buff out the edges and remove any harsh lines.
Step five
Now the exciting part – time for a pop of shimmer! Taking the shade Dreamwear from the Urban Decay palette, use your finger to sweep the shade onto the main portion of your lids. Using your finger rather than a brush will give you a much more pigmented, rich application.

Step six
Take the shimmer to the next level with the Stila Liquid Glow Eyeshadow in the shade Bronze Girl. Apply with the wand and then blend out gently using your fingers for a beautiful bold glow.
Step seven
The key to achieving a seamless base is to use a good quality primer. Prep your skin for foundation with the Hourglass Veil Mineral Primer, applying all over the face using your hands.
Step eight
For a glowy, fresh base, take the Anastasia Beverly Hills Luminous Foundation, buffing the formula in gently all over the face using a beauty blender. Then, to cover up imperfections, dark circles or uneven skin tone, take the Laura Mercier Flawless Fusion Ultra Longwear Concealer and apply using a beauty blender.
Top tip: to boost the luminosity and diminish dark circles, top up the inner and outer corners of your under-eyes with a slightly lighter concealer shade, providing a brightening, lifting effect.
Step nine
Set your concealer and prevent it from creasing using the Laura Mercier Translucent Setting Powder. Take a generous amount on your beauty blender and gently pat under your eyes.
Step ten
Now it’s time to contour and bronze the skin for a sunkissed glow. Take the Anastasia Beverly Hills Stick Contour and apply to key areas including the cheekbones, the forehead, and the bridge of the nose. Blend out using a medium fluffy brush.
Boost your glow with the Benefit Hoola Caramel Matte Bronzing Powder. Apply using a fluffy brush over your cheekbones to set and enhance your contour.
Step eleven
For a new take on blush, use the NARS Air Matte Lip Colour in the shade Pin Up and mix it with a minimal amount of foundation using the back of your hand. With your fingertips, apply to the apples of your cheeks, and where you would naturally blush.
Step twelve
Now it’s time to make your eyes pop. Take the Eylure Sabina Girl Boss Lashes and apply them to your top lash line, following the packet instructions. Then pick up your Urban Decay Naked Reloaded palette again and apply the shades Boundaries and End Game to your lower lash line. Give the lower lashes some definition with the NARS Climax Mascara.
Step thirteen
Top up your glow with the Hourglass Ambient Lighting Palette Volume II.Using a small fluffy brush, apply to the high points of your face including the cheekbones as well as the tip and the bridge of the nose.
Step fourteen
Nothing completes a glam makeup look like a bold red lip. Start by lining your lips with the M.A.C Lip Pencil in the shade Burgundy. Over-line your lips subtly at the cupids bow for a fuller look. Top off your pout with the Giorgio Armani Lip Maestro Matte Liquid Lipstick in the shade 206, applying all over the lips using the wand.
Step fifteen
Finally, to ensure that your glam lasts all day and night, apply the Urban Decay All Nighter Setting Spray liberally over your face and allow to air dry.
