Every girl dreams of being and feeling like a Hollywood diva at least once in her life... hopefully some old makeup can make it! Here am I with this quick Hollywood-inspired look that's perfect for any costume party, Halloween or Carnival event...
A bit 20's flapper with that sparkly headband and pointy lips, a bit 30's femme fatale with long and luscious lashes. A retro look that's all about the glitz and the glamour of the Golden age of Hollywood.
These are the key features and products for this makeup look:
1) a pale an luminous complexion with a pearlescent foundation and silver highlighter (I used PupaActive Light light activating foundation in #002 Ivory and PupaLuminys Touch face illuminator #01Luminous Ivory),
2) nude eyelids and a well-set face (for this I used just one product: Pupa Like a Doll Compact Powder #3 Natural Beige),
3) long, black and endless doe deer lashes (I used RevlonBeyond Lashes Long Volumising) with a touch of Marc Jacobs Velvet Noir Major Volume Mascara to blend them,
4) a.... red pout!
Women on screen, stages and real life have been loving and showing their red lips from 20's to 50's.

A red lipstick I'm totally in love is RealHerMoisturizing lipstick in Be Yourself Be RealHer...
Why? This lipstick glides easily and keeps my lips very moisturized with a vivid shine. I've previously drawn my lips with PupaMade To Last Definition Lips lip liner in #301 Terra di Siena, in a quite matching red, to prep and help set the lipstick.
But, with my not so great surprise, I've found that Be Yourself Be RealHer is so pigmented that becomes the perfect blusher.
A savvy and smart makeup tips: a very pigmented red lipstick, smudged onto the apples of the cheeks, creates a healthy rosy glow.
At the end, with my eyebrows, I think more about Katharine Hepburn...
What else for this Hollywood makeup look? A sparkly headband (essence), waves, and a red nail lacquer. Freckles are an option from Mother Nature I decided to keep.
