Let L'Oréal Paris makeup artist, Sylvie Hurford guide you on how to perfect your look.
The key to getting Beyoncé’s superstar look is in the eyes. We might balk at the thought of trying to create those smoky eyes, but the truth is, it’s not hard! The trick is to blend, blend and blend some more.
1. Line your eyes top and bottom and then smudge the liner with a brush or cotton bud.
2. Set the smudged area (which also provides the frame for the shape) with eye shadow. I absolutely love L’Oréal Infallible Mono Shadow, as it doesn’t fall or flake on to the under-eye area.
3. You need to create layers and depth in the eye area, so go over the outer corners with a slightly darker shadow, or a more intense version of the one you’re already using.
4. You may need to increase detail by sharpening up the outer edges of your eyes once more with a little liquid liner. My choice: L’Oréal Superliner in Carbon Black.
5. Don’t be shy with mascara! Or, if you’re feeling brave, apply a few individual false lashes coated in your favourite mascara.
The great thing about this look is that neutral is not an option. Go ahead and add a bold lip too. Because you’re worth it!
