Unveil Maxine
Amidst the trials of a pandemic, Maxine Trinidad rose to prominence as a shining star on the reality TV show Pinoy Big Brother, initially joining as a teen housemate. Her journey since then has been nothing short of a blossoming career, akin to the vibrant beauty of a flower in full bloom.
As September ushers in the enchanting season of Fall or Autumn, we often perceive it as the gloomiest of the year. Yet, within this melancholic embrace, lies a hidden allure.
In this month’s edition of Unveiling Glam, I draw inspiration from Maxine’s journey, celebrating her flourishing career alongside the challenges she faced during the pandemic’s gloomy days.
To capture the essence of Autumn, I’ve woven a tapestry of colors evoking the season’s palette: warm hues of yellow, orange, and red.
Unveiling The Glam
The Canvas
I begin by prepping Maxine’s flawless canvas with Bobbi Brown’s Vitamin Enriched Face Base. Maxine’s radiant skin deserves nothing less than the Bobbi Brown Intensive Serum Foundation, providing a luminous finish. To set this masterpiece, I lightly dust her face with my beloved Laura Mercier Translucent Powder.
Eyes That Speak
For the eyes, I start with a medium shade of eyeshadow, gently sweeping it across the lids. A pop of bright yellow from Mac Cosmetics adorns the inner corners, reminiscent of the first rays of Autumn’s sun. The eyes are crowned with Maybelline’s Sky High mascara for a mesmerizing gaze.
The Second Act
In the second look, I introduce an orange Mac Eyeshadow to the crease area and the lower eyelids. To widen her gaze, I embrace the natural allure of Maris Joefren’s Pixie Collection lashes in Px18.
Champagne Dreams
For the third look, the yellow eyeshadow in the inner corners gracefully makes way for a champagne shimmer, adding depth and allure. A touch of red eyeshadow from Mac Cosmetics, concentrated at the outer corners and skillfully blended into the crease, intensifies the gaze
Artistry Unveiled
In the final look, I embrace a more artistic approach while keeping Maxine’s stunning face in focus. The eyes are adorned with a simple yet captivating makeup, accentuating her long lashes and a hint of shimmer eyeshadow in the inner corners. A daring splash of red pigment eyeshadow graces her temples, delicately spreading outwards, creating a mesmerizing masterpiece.
Maxine Trinidad’s journey is a testament to finding beauty in life’s darkest moments. She persevered, embracing her dreams, even during the gloomiest days of the pandemic. Like Autumn, she has shown us that within every season of life, there is a unique and captivating beauty waiting to be unveiled.
