So to see how you can replicate it at home, just keep reading.
Eyes:

• Begin with Cover Girl Smoky ShadowBlast in Citrus Flair ($8.50), using the green color on the base of the lid, and blend up.
• Layer Cover Girl Smoky ShadowBlast in Silver Sky ($8.50) over the green in the crease of the eye and blend up toward the brow bone.
• Add a gold highlighter along the lower lash line and up at the brow bone, like Cover Girl Smoky ShadowBlast in Bronze Fire ($8.50).
• Finish with a couple of coats of black mascara on your upper and lower lashes.

Cheeks and lips:

• To get Queen's bronzed glow, Monifa suggests you use Cover Girl Queen Collection Natural Hue Bronzer in Brown Bronze ($8) under your eyes and in Ebony Bronze ($8) on your forehead and cheekbones to add some warmth.
• Finish the look with Cover Girl ShineBlast Lip Gloss in Ember ($8.50).
