You’ve got the perfect outfit, the perfect hairstyle, and the perfect shoes, but if your makeup doesn’t look like a celebrity’s, then it won’t look right. Luckily for you, I’m going to teach you how to recreate celebrity looks at home on yourself. In just five simple steps, you’ll be able to make yourself look like a real-life movie star!
Eyeshadow
Eyeshadow is a versatile product that can be used to create a wide range of looks. If you want to enhance your natural eye color, apply some shimmery shadow over the entire lid and blend it out towards the crease.
If you’re going for an evening look, use darker shades at the outer corners of your eyes and blend them inwards towards the center of your lids. This creates depth and contrast–it’ll make those baby blues pop!
For an even more dramatic effect (and if you have time), try creating a smokey eye with black or grey shadows on top and bottom lids respectively–this will help frame your face beautifully while giving off an Audrey Hepburn vibe all day long!
Brows
- Brush your brows up and out with a spoolie.
- Use a pencil or gel to fill in any gaps where the powder didn’t reach.
- Brush out any excess product with the spoolie, then use clear mascara to set them in place (this also helps keep them from smudging).
Contouring
Contouring is one of the most important steps in achieving a celebrity look, and it’s also one of the trickiest. There are a few different ways to contour, but we’re going to talk about what we think is the easiest and most effective method–the “3-2-1” technique.
- 3: Draw a line down your nose with bronzer or powder. This will create shadows that make it appear narrower than it really is (and help define any wrinkles). You can also use this line as a guide for where you want to apply blush later on!
- 2: Apply blush directly under each cheekbone so that both sides of your face match. This will give you an overall glowy look without making you look too shiny or oily–which would happen if we added highlighter before applying blush.* 1: Swirl highlight color onto the top half of each cheekbone (and anywhere else on your face that naturally catches light). This helps highlight key areas like under eyes, bridge lines between nose and lips/cheeks etcetera
Lipstick
Lipstick is one of the most important beauty products in your arsenal. It’s also one of the most complex, with dozens of shades and formulas to choose from. But don’t worry: we’ll walk you through every step of finding your perfect pout!
The first thing to consider when choosing a lipstick shade is whether it will coordinate with your overall look. If you’re wearing a bold eye shadow or dramatic blush, then stick with something more neutral on your lips; conversely, if you’re going for a subtler face (think smokey eye and barely-there blush), then go bolder with your lip color choice.
Once you’ve decided what kind of lip color will work best based on this rule of thumb, there are still plenty more options available: do you want something matte? shimmery? creamy? We’ll cover all these types of formulas as well as how much coverage each provides below so that by the end of this article–and hopefully by following our advice!–you’ll know exactly which type suits both who YOU are AND what LOOKS best on YOU personally!
Your makeup can look like a celebrity’s.
Celebrity makeup looks are easy to recreate. All you need is the right products and a little bit of patience, and you’ll be well on your way to looking like one of the beautiful people.
You can find tutorials online that will show you how to do specific celebrity makeup styles. For example, if you want to recreate Rihanna’s cat eye look from her “We Found Love” music video (the one that makes us feel like we’re watching an animated version of her), there are tons of tutorials out there with step-by-step instructions on how to achieve it. Just make sure that when following these tutorials as closely as possible so that your finished look matches up with what they did in theirs!
It’s also important not just what products work best but also how much time each application takes–it might seem like an easy task at first glance but it will add up over time if done incorrectly or carelessly! Remember: practice makes perfect!
Conclusion
We hope you’ve enjoyed learning how to recreate your favorite celebrity looks. Remember, the key to getting it right is practice! You can start by trying out our tips on yourself before moving on to friends or family members. Once you feel confident in your skills, start practicing on strangers at the mall (just kidding).
