Salma Hayek carried her beautiful self to the Golden Globes yesterday, and her makeup was done my artist Matthew Vanleeuwen.  I am so glad to see Salma back on the scene, I think she is am amazingly beautiful woman.  Here is the information from Nars on how to recreate her look:

“Salma’s makeup look was directly inspired by her dress,” said NARS Makeup Artist Matthew Vanleeuwen.  “She chose a very neutral colored dress and wanted to make sure her makeup look would pop.  I made her eyes the focus and added a lot of rich, jewel skin tones and fresh color to her cheeks and lips.  Her look was very classic and chic, with some modern textures.”

Matthew Vanleeuwen’s step-by-step to recreate Salma’s makeup look:

Eyes:

  • Apply the China Blue Single Eyeshadow to top and bottom lash line [Matthew’s tip: “I love using navy colors because they make the whites of the eyes pop.”]
  • Next, use the Corfu Cream Eyeshadow as a base, all over eyelid
  • Use the golden champagne side of the Alhambra Duo Eyeshadow on lid
  • Then, use the Bengali Single Eyeshadow all along the lash line, rubbing it into the lash line, deepening the outer corner of the eye, creating shading
  • Curl the eyelashes and apply 2 coats of Black Orchid Mascara on lashes
  • Go back over top lash line with the Night Clubbing Eyeshadow  and use what is left on the brush under the eye to define it [Matthew’s tip:“This shade is perfect to create a smokey eye – it gives a rich sparkle at the lash line with undertones of green and gold.”]

Complexion:

  • Use the Brightening Serum to make skin glow and apply the Makeup Primer
  • Apply the Firming Foundation and set with the Loose Powder

Lips

  • Use the Marnie Lipliner Pencil and Tutti Fruity Lipstick
  • Next, mix the Boogie Nights and Greek Holiday Lipglosses and apply them over the lipstick

Blush

  • Apply the Desire Blush to the apple of cheeks [Matthew’s tip: “I use a powder brush to apply blush.  I find that a bigger brush makes a much softer wash of color.”]
  • Next, use the Laguna Bronzer with short, back and forth stokes from the back of cheekbone forward, to blend
