Broadway honoured its best on Sunday in New York at the Tony Awards 2016, which took place at the Beacon Theatre last night.
Sunday night saw the most glamorous looks on the red carpet as the stars descended to celebrate the evening – and we have all the juicy details about Saoirse Ronan’s stunning red-carpet look.
Celebrity makeup artist Talia Sparrow wanted to give Saoirse a “modern and romantic look with youthful, dewy skin”. To complement her porcelain skin, Sparrow used Laura Mercier products to keep her look “clean and fresh, while sculpting without contouring.”
Take a look below at the full break-down of Saoirse’s Tony Award look:
PREP:
- First, Sparrow used the ReVive Balancing Toner and the Laura Mercier Blemish-less Foundation Primer to give Saoirse soft, moisturized skin. Sparrow believes that the number one rule to achieving flawless, glowing skin is priming it. “If you have a good canvas, makeup sits better.”
SKIN:
- Sparrow used Laura Mercier Candleglow Soft Luminous Foundation in Crème ($48) for an inner glow look. She applied the foundation all over Saoirse’s face to emphasize her porcelain skin.
- She then applied Laura Mercier Secret Camouflage in SC-1 ($35) to even out her complexion.
- Next, she highlighted and sculpted Saoirse’s face with the Laura Mercier Face Illuminators ($44). Sparrow used Devotion on her cheekbones, then applied the darker shade, Seduction, to the bridge of the nose, Cupid’s bow and brow bone. Sparrow suggests highlighting rather than contouring for a more natural and three-dimensional look.
- Sparrow set Saoirse’s look with Laura Mercier Mineral Powder in Soft Porcelain ($40) to ensure it lasts the night.
EYES:
- To complement Saoirse’s dress and romantic hairstyle, Sparrow used Laura Mercier Caviar Eye Stick Colour in Seashell ($29), which she layered with Laura Mercier Caviar Eye Stick Colour in Pink Opal ($29) for depth and to bring out her piercing blue eyes.
- Saoirse’s top and bottom lashes were primed with Laura Mercier Long Lash Mascara ($26), followed by three coats of Full Blown Volume Suprême Lash Building Mascara ($26) on the top.
- To further accentuate her eyes, Sparrow tightlined Saoirse’s top lashes with Laura Mercier Kajal D’Orient Eye Liner in Noir ($28).
LIPS:
- To tie her whole look together, her lips were flushed with Laura Mercier Paint Wash Liquid Colour in Petal Pink ($28).
