Chances are some of your first beauty memories involve your Mum. For our Official Mecca Beauty Junkie Em, her strongest (and funniest) memory involves bright blue eyeshadow and way too much blush being applied by her Mum at her ’98 dance concert. Em recently invited her mum Liz into the studio to get ready with her using some of their favourite makeup bag staples, resurface some old photos and talk about why teenage Emily should’ve listened to her when she said ‘Don’t pluck your eyebrows!’.
To prep the skin Em starts off with Mecca Cosmetica Lit From Within Primer to ensure her base stays nice and glowy:

She follows up with her faithful NARS Sheer Glow Foundation:

Liz loves to prime her skin with the Stila One Step Correct. What does it do? Well the name says it all:

Sun protection is a must have for every single day, and Liz loves her Mecca Cosmetica To Save Face Superscreen SPF 50+:

For her base she uses the beautifully smoothing Hourglass Illusion Hyaluronic Skin Tint:

Both Em and Liz love the NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer, and pat it on under their eyes using their ring finger:

For brows, Liz uses the Billion Dollar Brows Universal Brow Pencil:

Em uses the Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz in the shade 'Taupe':

Moving onto eyes Emily applies the By Terry Ombre Blackstar in 'Bronze Moon' on her mum:

On herself Em uses the Too Faced Just Peachy Velvet Matte Eyeshadow Palette:

Liz applies the Kevyn Aucoin The Volume Mascara for smudge-proof lashes:
bit.ly/2YbkvMD
Em uses her all-time-favourite, the trusty Too Faced Better Than Sex mascara:
bit.ly/2H7saVl
To lock everything in Liz uses the Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powder:

Like mother, like daughter! Both Em and Liz love Hourglass. Em is using the Hourglass Veil Translucent Setting Powder:
bit.ly/2VqbDWv
To warm up the skin and for a beautiful glow, Liz applies the Hourglass Ambient Lighting Bronzer in 'Luminous Bronze Light':
bit.ly/2DX1s0T
For a flush, Emily uses the Hourglass Ambient Lighting Blush in 'Mood Exposure':
bit.ly/2V9bemv
Last but not least onto the lips! Liz uses the NARS Powermatte Lip Pigment in 'American Woman':
bit.ly/2VaUIlK
Em's gone for a subtle pop of colour with the Mecca Cosmetica Lip De Luscious Glide in the shade 'Rose':

There you have it! Two looks perfect for a mother-daughter lunch date!

![#myMECCAskin with Dominic Porras
In this series, #myMECCAskin, we tap some of our favourite beauty guys and gals to take their always flawless makeup off and reveal their skin story and the products they use to manage this crazy little thing called skin.
When it comes to self-care, Dominic Porras has it all sorted out. His skincare routine focuses on hydrating essential, consisting of five simple steps (and one very large accordion fan) that help soothe his chronically dry skin and get the glow.
First, Dom has to take off his always glam makeup – for this he uses Tatcha One-Step Camellia Cleansing Oil [https://bit.ly/2HjV8Ca] as it takes everything off—even full-coverage foundation—while nourishing the skin. He then polishes his face with Tatcha The Rice Polish Foaming Enzyme Powder [https://bit.ly/2Hi0aPC] to get rid of dry and dull skin.
For serum, it’s all about Drunk Elephant C-Firma Day Serum [https://bit.ly/33QEPXe] to get “super bouncy” skin and Lala Retro Moisturiser [https://bit.ly/30mO0ws] which he describes as so calming, “like sitting in a bubble bath and drinking a glass of Champagne.”
And the number one anti-aging product on Dom’s list? Mecca Cosmetica To Save Face Superscreen SPF 50+ [https://bit.ly/2Z8nMkJ], because it leaves him super glowy and protected.
Press play!
