How to Create a Full Glam Look Using Only Brittany Cosmetics

A full glam look — dramatic eyes, sculpted cheeks, and a polished lip — is one of the most rewarding makeup looks to create. It's the look for special occasions, nights out, and any moment when you want to feel truly extraordinary. And with Brittany Cosmetics, you have everything you need to create it. Here's your complete step-by-step guide.

What You'll Need

Step-by-Step: The Full Glam Look

Step 1: Prime Your Eyes

Apply eye primer across the entire lid from lash line to brow bone. This is the foundation of a long-lasting glam look — it intensifies colour payoff, prevents creasing, and ensures your eyeshadow stays flawless all night. Allow to set for 30 seconds before proceeding.

Step 2: Apply a Transition Shade

Using the fluffy blending brush from your Glowy 'n' Glam Brush Set, apply a medium matte shade from the Blitz Palette into the crease using windscreen-wiper motions. This transition shade creates the depth and dimension that defines a full glam eye. Blend thoroughly until there are no harsh edges.

Step 3: Deepen the Outer Corner

Using a smaller blending brush, apply the darkest matte shade in your palette to the outer corner of the eye in a V shape. Blend the inner edge into your transition shade. This creates the dramatic, sculpted outer corner that defines a full glam eye look.

Step 4: Pack a Shimmer onto the Lid

Using the flat eyeshadow brush, press a rich shimmer or metallic shade from your palette onto the centre of the mobile lid. Use a pressing and patting motion for maximum colour payoff. The shimmer lid is the centrepiece of the full glam eye — build it until it's intensely pigmented and light-catching.

Step 5: Highlight the Inner Corner and Brow Bone

Apply the lightest, most shimmery shade in your palette to the inner corner of the eyes and directly beneath the arch of the brow using a small detail brush or your fingertip. This brightens the eye area and creates the open, luminous quality that defines a polished glam look.

Step 6: Apply Eyeshadow to the Lower Lash Line

Using a small brush, apply a medium or dark shade along the lower lash line, extending slightly beyond the outer corner. This creates a cohesive, wraparound effect that makes the full glam eye look complete and intentional.

Step 7: Apply Mascara

Apply two to three coats of volumising mascara to both upper and lower lashes. For full glam, lashes should be full, dramatic, and defined. Curl your lashes before applying mascara for maximum lift and impact.

Step 8: Sculpt with Blush

Using the large blush brush, apply the Magical Glow Blush – Miracle to the hollows of the cheeks and blend upward onto the cheekbones toward the temples. For full glam, the blush should be visible and intentional — a bold, sculpted flush that defines the cheekbone structure.

Step 9: Add Highlight

Apply the Magical Glow Blush – Glimmer to the tops of the cheekbones, the brow bone, and the inner corners of the eyes. This luminous highlight creates the lit-from-within glow that elevates a full glam look from beautiful to breathtaking.

Step 10: Apply Your Lip

For full glam, choose a lip that complements your eye look. If your eyes are very dramatic, choose a nude or soft gloss — the Sparkle Lips – Beige is perfect. If your eyes are more wearable, go bold with the Shade Me In Liquid Matte Lipstick for maximum impact. Apply with a lip brush for the most precise, polished finish.
