The Breakdown
On the inspiration and merchandise for the primary make-up look…
Hewson is such a basic magnificence—one who seems proper at house in a French twist and purple lip. Due to that, we wished to do another spin on vacation. We did bombshell hair (take a look at these attractive, shiny curls), however paired them with Y2K-inspired sun shades, shiny pores and skin, and a lip ring.
Kate Lee: “A lot of the merchandise I used had been by CHANEL. Significantly the bottom, which was a mixture of CHANEL Les beiges Contemporary-Water Tint and Baume Essentiel in Moonlight Kiss. For the primary look, we did clear, recent pores and skin with shiny highlights. Eve wore a lip ring, and I centered on defining her brows and her magnificence mark.

Kate Lee: “We had been going for an ice queen vibe. I used a silver-y shadow, NEEN Fairly Shady in Glow, on the lids and crept that out to the excessive cheekbones. I used Victoria Beckham’s Contour Stylus to outline the cheekbones and added the Baume Essentiel so as to add dimension. I used a strip lash, lower into small parts, on the outer corners of the lash line to elongate. Brows had been freshly brushed into place and I used gloss on the lips.”

A brand new tackle tinsel, we stored the pores and skin clear and customary a cat-eye from a chunk of silver foil. Every look was meant to give attention to a distinct “basic” vacation adornment, and stability it with one thing much less conventional.
Kate Lee: “I added a really high quality silver foil, like tinsel, in a straight line above the [eye] socket line, which gave us another cat eye. I borrowed the foils from Kimmie Kyees, the manicurist on set. They’re designed for nail artwork, however got here in helpful for the ultimate look.”
