Here is your chance to shop the cover shoot and see what makeup products were used to create Cassie’s stunning look.
The brand new issue of Irish Country Magazine is on sale now, with the wonderful Cassie Stokes as our May cover star. International makeup artist Zoe Clark created the beautiful makeup looks for the stunning shoot in the National Botanic Gardens of Ireland and here was her inspiration for the look she created on the day:
“I wanted to keep Cassie’s look as fresh as possible reflecting springtime, and I was very much influenced by the location at the Botanical Gardens and by the beautiful floral clothes that Sinead (Keenan, stylist for the cover) had chosen for the shoot.”
To enhance Cassie’s natural beauty, Zoe used peach and pinky tones to achieve the look.
“Cassie has the most stunning yellow gold colour around the pupil of her eyes that I wanted to draw out and emphasise. So I added a touch of yellow to the peach and pinky tones in Cassie’s eye make-up and blush, with a pop of a brighter lipstick to complete her look.”
