Always prep for makeup application with a clean and refreshed face. It is essential when creating romantic and dewy skin. A helpful tip: Dab on a lip treatment like Kiehl's lip balm in Coconut before you start with makeup. By the time you get to lip color they will be soft and hydrated.

Start with a primer and tinted moisturizer from Smashbox Cosmetics. A soft cream blush or sheer gel-tint from Stila dotted on the apples of cheeks and spread up towards the temple will create a natural flush. Follow with a highlight on the cheekbones as in "All Over Seduction" by Edward Bess.

For a smoky eye, a kohl liner works great and smudging any eyeshadow over it will intensify the look. Try Laura Mercier in Black Violet or Black Gold. Also for a subtle lip, her lip stain in Shy Pink is great on almost any skin tone. As a final step, I use Kevin Aucoin mascara and clean up under the eyes with concealer.
