We have told you more than once about trendy makeup and how to repeat it, and also revealed the secrets of the heroines - women whom our editorial staff admire and are inspired by every day. This time we decided to make the material about beauty as vital as possible and tried to repeat the star makeup on ourselves. We are proud to present you 8 striking women from Heroine magazine and their personal muses.
Not only inspiration and stellar images helped us prepare this material, but also a very cool application - MakeMaker. This service is literally created for those who like to borrow ideas, but have little experience in their implementation. MakeMaker scans the image and displays a list of the necessary shades of cosmetics and links to stores where you can buy all this. Watch how we use it and upload your images (well, or ours).
1. Plum lips Gal Gadot
My boyfriend likes Gal Gadod. Not that I was jealous, but when it came to star images, I decided to repeat it. In life, Gal does not hesitate to go out with a minimum of makeup or without it at all - in this we are similar to her. At social events, Gadot prefers something brighter. In this look, I really liked the lips - they add boldness and sexuality. Gal Gadod for me is the absolute embodiment of female power. She manifests itself not only in Gal's appearance, but also in her actions - this is another reason why the Heroine editors could not ignore this actress. The guy liked my reincarnation, by the way, too.
- Julia, author of Heroine Editors' Tip: Dark lips call for dark eyebrows! We put a dark purple lipstick on Yulia, and had to make her eyebrows a tone darker. On the eyes a very minimalistic combination of silver, smoky gray and black shades.
2. Bella Hadid's golden khaki
For me Bella Hadid is the ideal of beauty! Her seemingly childish face always exudes sexy vibes. My facial expression also seems a little naive and childish to me, so I decided to take a chance and agreed to red lips with gilded shadows.
- Victoria, HR Editors' Council: Khaki is one of the most stylish shades, especially in autumn. Bella's makeup is very unusual: here khaki is combined with swamp green and gold. This will add shine to matte shadows. We made bright lips from red lipstick with blue undertones, which went well with Vicki's pale skin tone.
3. Keira Knightley's Smoky
I have been watching the work of Keira Knightley for a long time. Her Elizabeth from Pirates of the Caribbean has become my favorite heroine for years to come. And when it was necessary to choose whose makeup I would like to repeat, the gorgeous images of this actress immediately flashed through my head. In addition, we have the same eye color, so it didn't take a long time to look for the right makeup. I was very worried about how black shadows would look on me, because I usually don't use such saturated colors. The resulting image turned out to be unusual, but I liked the experiment.
- Elizabeth, author of Heroine Editors' Tip: The main element of this makeup is a combination of gray and pale purple eyeshadows. As a result, the tone has a slight lilac haze and a soft transition from dark to light. Lisa demanded arrows, so I had to add those too.
4. Red lips of Jeanne Damas
Mentioning Jeanne Damas in the materials about style and beauty for me personally is already a tradition. There is no need to explain why her beauty has become the standard of naturalness and French chic, this woman is ideal. Choosing makeup, I didn't cheat on myself - I asked for scarlet lips, my statment, because I had already passed the dedication to Zhanna a long time ago.
- Daria, editor-in-chief of Heroine Editors' Council: Red lipstick is always a big responsibility. The contour should be neatly drawn, and the texture should be chosen to match the features of the lip skin. We applied a bright red lipstick with blue undertones, which looks good with Dasha's pale skin tone, and added a little glitter on top for shine and volume. The key element is to blend the lipstick around the edges for an after-kiss effect.
5. Emilia Clarke's bright blush
For me, Emilia Clarke is an amazing combination of a hard inner core and smooth gestures. She is gentle and unyielding - and her makeup confirms this. A key element of the look, which she wore for the Met Gala this year, is a bright blush, emphasizing the aristocratic pallor of the face.
- Alina, author of Heroine Editor's tip: Alina has very pale skin of a cold shade, and therefore the bright pink blush looked just perfect on her. We applied it on the cheekbone, on the highlighter zones and went up to the very temple. Burgundy lips completed the metaphor that Alina so wanted to convey: tenderness and impenetrable confidence.
6. Natural "Sunset" Blake Lovely
For me, beauty is how you feel from the inside. If I have a lot of makeup on, I stop being myself. When asked whose makeup I would like to repeat, I said "Blake Lovely" - it was a very simple choice. For me, Blake is an example of minimalism in style and especially in makeup since the days of the TV series "Gossip Girl", the magnificent appearance of the actress in the film "Age of Adaline" and photographs of her personal life, where she is a mother, wife, a gorgeous woman.
- Olya, Heroine illustrator editor's tip: Olya naturally has a lot of freckles on her cheeks and nose, so we decided to celebrate the latest trend and draw on them with a pencil. To achieve such a sparkling smokey, we blend a nude base, sparkling peach eyeshadow and some bronze in the center. A peach blush with a highlighter effect was applied to the cheekbones and in the corners of the eyes, and as a lipstick they decided to take a glossy lip gloss of light brown color with an orange undertones.
7. Smokey fuchsia Gigi Hadid
Fuchsia in everyday makeup is almost like a New Year's resolution. I really want to try, but it's so difficult to approach the implementation. When I was doing this makeup, I did not fully believe what would suit me. Gigi and I have a similar olive complexion, and the vibrant shades of pink are a way to make your face sparkle with new colors. My favorite moment in creating this makeup is glitter. We used it to create volume. I never thought I was brave enough to wear sequins throughout the day.
- Alena, Special Projects Department Editorial Council: We used three types of eyeshadows: matte red with peach undertones for the base, bright raspberry with mother-of-pearl on top, the third layer - glitter, dotted in the center of the eyelid. The lips are best left nude. You can add a shade - tea rose, peach. We made a light ombre from beige and pink lipstick with a matte effect. We also added some highlighter on the cheekbones, nose and above the upper lip.
8. Smokey Chameleon Kristen Stewart
I really like smokey, especially when the color is ambiguous, combining dark and light shades, sparkling shadows and pearlescent effect. I wanted the makeup to highlight my eyes, like Kristen's, but not too dark and gloomy. I was given a chameleon effect shadow, and this is a real discovery for me. Depending on the intensity, the shadows can be both dark and light, sparkling, iridescent with a whole palette of colors: from brown to crimson and steel silver.
- Nastya, designer-illustrator BroDude Editorial advice: The pigment can be applied both on shadows and simply on a clean eyelid, previously covered with a primer and base. We applied the pigment in a dense layer and blend along the edges to create a smokey effect. Peach blush looks good with olive complexion, and nude lips don't distract attention from the eyes. As you can see, MakeMaker is a useful service, especially when you need to quickly decide and find the right shade of lipstick, eyeshadow or even a makeup base.
How it works: You upload an image to the application, mark the part of the photo, the shade of which interests you the most. Then the application generates a list of the necessary funds, divides them into categories. Thus, you can see all the tools involved in the look: foundation, blush, eyeliner, lipstick, shadows, as well as add the product you like to your palette - Wishlist.
Why it is convenient: In addition to searching for the necessary cosmetics, the offer selects products that can complement your chosen makeup. You saw the photo on the Internet, and after 2 minutes you already know which cosmetics you should buy. The application shows cosmetics of different price categories, so the list is not limited to one Armani.
