So here is what we know about her iconic fashion. “We went for old Hollywood glamour complete with red lips and winged liner, but with an unexpected twist. The addition of an intense metallic silver liner created an element that made the look both classic and futuristic.“ Said stellar makeup artist.
For Lupita’s skin, the Advanced Génifique Youth Activating Concentrate, the Miracle Cushion Liquid Cushion Compact in 555 Suede & the Translucence Mattifying Silky Pressed Powder in 550 Suede were used to create an even and matte finish that looked flawless, keeping her skin glowing through out the night.
Nick used the Lancôme Color Design 5 Pan Color Palette inStyle Section, the Sourcils Gel Waterproof Eyebrow Gel-Cream in Noir to add some depth to her brows, the Artliner Liquid Eye Liner in Noir, the Drama Liqui-Pencil Longwear Eye Liner in Lumiere and a Hypnôse Mascara in Black for flirty lashes.

Her hair was made jet black with sleek edges and a tousled top. We absolutly love this look as she looks ever so natural with without screaming heavy makeup. She absolutly stole the night and here are the evidence.
