Who doesn't love easy fresh looking make-up?

I recently posted a catwalk inspired tutorial on my new channel. I'm kind of excited about it as I have a few ideas and feel like I can put some order into the way they are displayed.
I did this look after flicking through magazines and loved the simplicity of Aquascutum's eyeliner and natural beauty of Kristen Stewart. This is a very toned down look for a Catwalk make-up but the more artistic faces will be coming soon.

These are pictures of my inspiration
This was the look for Aquascutum's runway show , the eyeliner is simple but elongated the cheeks a light flush and the lips have a slight tint. It presents a youthful countryside image, innocent and fresh.
This is Kristen Stewart on the cover of this months UK ELLE. It is so similar to the image above however the eyeliner is more natural. She looks almost like she has no make-up on which is difficult to achieve.
My interpretation-I went on the rosey side for the flush by choosing similar tones on the cheeks and lips thus giving a uniformed natural look. Those above are peachy, if you look at Aquascutum's make-up you will see how the cheeks and lips have the same tone. This is important to create that flushed look.
