Mila Kunis gives major ‘cat-itude’, Emma Roberts is a bronze dream and Brie Larson throws beauty rules out the window. Take inspiration from these red carpet darlings for your wedding beauty.
Mila Kunis at the premiere of Bad Moms: Still need your ‘something blue’? Think outside the box and let your eyeshadow fill that void. To recreate Mila Kunis’s edgy blue cateye look, start with a full coverage foundation and buff it into place. Take an updated approach to your contour by accentuating your cheekbones with a pink, powder blush. Then highlight right above the blush line, and down the center points of your face. Create a precise brow line by shaping your brows with a brow gel and then highlighting around the lines. For the eyes, begin by tightlining with a black kohl pencil and extend the line down below the lower lashes. To create the sharp lines of the cat eye, wet an angled brush and use blue eyeshadow to get the perfect wing, making sure you extend the line around the outer corner and under the lower lashes. A shade of light blue or white shadow right above the blue line makes the shape pop all the more. A few coats of mascara, pink lip gloss, and you’re done.
Emma Roberts at the 20th Century Fox Party at Comic-Con International 2016: Embrace your inner glowing goddess for your big day with Emma Roberts’s gorgeous look. Use a cushion foundation to even out your complexion without any heavy makeup and contour with a matte bronzer. On your cheekbones, go over the top of the bronzer with a coral blush to warm up the look even more, and then highlight, highlight, highlight. Go for a strong brow brushing the hair up and out and using a gel formula to fill in a heavy shape. Use champagne- and copper-colored shadows to create a bronzed eye. And for the lashes? Get some extensions before the big day, so they’re long and fluttering for both the wedding look and the honeymoon. A pink stain on your lips pulls everything together, but keeps your lips extra kissable throughout the day.
Brie Larson at the Marvel Studio Panel at Comic-Con International 2016: Sometimes, it can be the smallest changes to a standard makeup look that make the biggest impact. Take Brie Larson for example: By simply going light on the mascara with a smokey eye, she looks ultra-modern and cool. To achieve this look, start with a full coverage foundation and use a mauve blush all over the cheeks. On the cheekbones, use a highlighter stick to create a heavy glow. For the eyes, smudge a black eyeliner all around the eyes, but skip the inner corners. Create a subtle smokey look with dark brown shadows and then apply one coat of mascara and highlight the inner corners to give the look that slightly lighter, ‘untraditional’ feel. Go bold with a deep burgundy lipstick, making sure you line the lips first, and you’ve got the perfect combination of modern, glamorous and unique.
