I've put together a little tutorial of how to recreate this look over on my Youtube channel. The eyes are ssssuuuper simple with just two matte shades blended together and a tiny smidge of eyeliner to give lashes a bit of a boost (all from the Urban Decay Naked Basics Palette). The eyes would be a great everyday sort of look for work/uni etc. as they're quick to do and help to define your eyes without looking too done up. But the addition of the lipstick definitely takes this from everyday to Oscars worthy. I used MAC Rebel blended together with some black kohl eyeliner (yes, really!). Rebel was the closest lip colour that I had in my stash, but it's just a weeeee bit more pinky-purple than Margot's lip colour which is more of a burgundy/red wine shade. But oh well, it's close enough for now! Perhaps an excuse to buy myself a new lipstick to fill the burgundy shaped hole in my life?
Which was your favourite makeup look from the Oscars this year?

ReplyDeleteOh my goodness Gillian you've done such a good job! I thought her Oscars make up was pretty daring, nice of her to go against the grain, especially when she looks so different to how she looked in WOWS! Beautiful make up, lovely on you! T xx
