While Margot Robbie and Miranda Kerr opted for complete Laura Mercier makeovers for the awards ceremony; we delved into some more of the loveliest beauty looks we lusted over from last night, and put together some of the best beauty products to help you achieve the very same on yourself…
Sophie Turner
We loved Game of Thrones star Sophie Turner’s look; her soft cool smokey eyes and neutral lip went perfectly with her complexion and her stunning red hair. Her green eyes popped out, using plenty of mascara. Here are the products we thought would recreate her look:
To achieve Sophie’s glowing complexion we thought the Perricone MD No Highlighter Highlighter would be the perfect product for subtle healthy glow in the skin without looking too shiny. Bobbi Brown’s Sterling Lights Eye Palette has the selection of cool toned shadows that work perfectly with lighter coloured eyes; and Sophie has a little pearly sheen on her lids too so this palette offers a perfect selection of colours to obtain this look.
CODE Lash Primer really adds volume to your lashes whilst protecting them too; so with the added layerings of MAC In Extreme Dimension 3D Black Lash on top you’ll have the biggest, thickest lashes ever, to really frame and pop those eyes out.
Kerry Washington
Kerry didn’t decide to boycott the Oscars this year; and we’re pretty pleased because she looked amazing. The actress went for strong black eye makeup with gorgeous fresh contoured skin. Here are some key products to get her look:
Kerry contour game is strong here – she has killer cheekbones! We thought what better way to get this effect than having a set of three shades to build up the transition of dark to light. Barry M’s Chisel Cheeks Contour Kit consists of the perfect tones for darker skin too. Shape your brows similarly to Kerry’s here with the NYX Brow Pomade with an angled brush to give a defined look, that’ll last all night too as this formula is waterproof. After lining her eyes with lots of black liner which makes her eyes stand-out, her lashes add a softer, fluttery look to her eyes and Ardell Demi Wispies are the perfect strip lash to do just that.
Rachel McAdams
We were fans of Rachel McAdams’ green eyes to match her gown; the dark forest green complements her blonde hair and skin tone beautifully. Here are a few key products we thought matched her look:
Rachel’s opted for the main focus of colour to be on her eyes so the NARS Blush in Gina is a perfect mix of pinky/coral tones to give the cheeks a natural flush. Work an emerald green into your waterline and blend it onto and over your bottom lash line; and the Charlotte Tilbury Smoky Emerald Eye Shadow Pencil is a gorgeous shimmering green to catch the light. We thought the new LOC Matte Lipstick in Skinny Dip was quite a similar soft, light pinky nude which goes amazingly with green.
