The Oscars all-rounder for me this year (makeup, style and
hair-do) was without a doubt Mila Kunis. Classy, elegant, simple.
So needless to say I was determined to try out her makeup look, and
show you, STAT :)
To get this look, I'm using one of the stunning Limited Edition
Opulent Eyes Palette's, called Rich &
Famous ($14.95 - Priceline)
Ahh...mazing.... let's begin!
I start this look like any other, by applying perfectly even
foundation to my entire face, blending onto my neck and out towards
my ears. For this I'm using Mineral Therapy Liquid
Foundation ($15.95). To get rid of any shine, I dust
Translucent Loose Powder ($11.95), lightly over my
face with a large brush.
I then pick up the rich shimmery brown colour (2nd from the
bottom) with a medium sized brush and apply this all over the
bottom third of the lid.
With a smaller brush I take the antique gold colour (3rd from
the bottom) and blend it into the crease, just above the rich
brown. I also apply it beneath the bottom lashes, starting from the
tear duct, and finishing half-way across the lash line.
To add some more highlight to my eye, I apply a very small
amount of the white shimmer (the top colour) just beneath my
brow.
Now it's time to get the deep sultry shaded look that Mila has
on the outer edges of her eyes. The deep matte brown at the bottom
of this palette is perfect for this! So I pick it up with a small
brush, and with small circular movements, I blend it into the outer
3rd of the eyelid creating a bit of a wing at the side. I continue
with this deep brown shading beneath the lower lash line from the
outer wing, and meeting up with the antique gold mid-way.
Now with Eye Definer Black ($7.45) I draw above
the upper lash line, starting with a wing out the side and drawing
in roughly 3/4 of the way in towards the tear duct. I then line my
lower water line, giving it a few coates to really make my eyes
pop!
I apply Blackest Black Impact Full Mascara
($11.95) to my lashes (fakies optional for a more dramatic
look). And now we have Mila's gorgeous goldy-brown, smoky eyes.
You'll notice Mila had a really light pretty pink glow on her
cheeks at the Oscars, so to achieve this I take Outback
Primrose Blush ($9.45), with a blush brush and apply it to
the apples of my cheeks and blending softly up towards my ears.
To get her lip colour I use Fairy Floss Mineral Lip
Shine ($11.95).
And I'm ready for the red carpet! :p
