For Paradise Files’ second editorial instalment we once again connected with Madrid born, make-up artist Luz Giraldo to further explore her artistry. Luz continues her editorial journey with PF, by creating two new beauty looks.

For the first look, Luz created a radiating glowing complexion by prepping the skin with MAC Strobe Cream. She completed the base with MAC Face & Body foundation and bronzed the cheeks with NARS Bronzing Powder in Laguna. Luz then reached for the NARS Mojave Palette applying it lightly around the lid, and finishing the eye with a straight line across the upper eyelid using Kyrolan HD Cream Liner in Snow. Luz completed the lips with NARS Lipgloss in Chelsea Girls, keeping the look to a nude palette.

For the second look, Luz kept the complexion the same by prepping the skin with MAC Strobe Cream, using MAC Face & Body foundation for the base and using NARS Bronzing Powder in Laguna on the cheeks. However for this look, Luz created a darker lip by using MAC Lip Pencil in Spice for the outline and completing with NARS Lipstick in Dolce Vita. This look however was more magnetic, Luz used Viseart Palette Eyeshadow Palette Warm Mattes on the eye lid and highlighted the lid colour with MAC Studio Eye Gloss, leaving the eyes more prominent and dewy.
