Aubrey Hepburn Glamour
Makeup Look to capture the glamour of actress, Audrey Hepburn
Audrey Hepburn has been the picture of beauty throughout the ages. She had a sophisticated look that can easily be copied with simple makeup techniques.
With Skinny Pants gracing their way back into fashion, and thanks to Gap, Audrey Hepburn’s face is all over the world once again. Being the definition of grace and beauty for so many years it is no wonder why her “look” is timeless.
Makeup Tips to look like Audrey Hepburn:
Step 1: Apply Highlight shade in a shimmery vanilla color to the brow bone and lid of the eye.
Step 2: Apply a midtone in a medium brown about a shade or two darker then your natural skin tone to the crease. Define the bottom lashes with an eyeliner brush with the same color.
Step 3: Taking black pencil eyeliner, line the top lid of the eye as close as possible to the lashes. Then take black liquid eyeliner and go over the pencil eyeliner sweeping it up in the outward corner. Make sure to go from thin to thick as you go to the outside corner of the eye. This will give you the “cat-eyed” look.
Step 4: Highlight the inside corner of the eye with the highlight shade used previously in step 1.
Step 5: Apply mascara for long, thick lashes. This is a great look to try false eyelashes for extra drama.
Step 6: Apply a soft pink shade of blush to the apple of your checks.
Step 7: For an extra special touch use a perfect red color of lipstick and clear gloss for shine.
Instead of staying at home and watching Funny Face or Breakfast at Tiffany’s, pay tribute to this Hollywood legend by showing your own style and grace at your next event.
