And so I wrap up my July series, Cover Look for Less, with the beautiful Katie Holmes for Glamour Magazine (August). Be sure to check out the other looks here. As always, I use cover looks that are easy to recreate and are budget-friendly. Enjoy.
I used images from inside the magazine as my inspiration for this look. |
1.--I used the Covergirl eyeshadow Quad in Natural Nudes. I smudged the lightest shimmery shade into the inner corners of the eyes and brought down about halfway under the bottom lash line. I added the last shade in the quad on the lid, and added the darkest shade into the outer corner of the eye (like a sideways V) and blended it out and under the bottom lash line.
2.--For mascara, I used the Maybelline Pumped Up Colossal. I have a tutorial coming tomorrow with this! Curl lashes and apply a coat of mascara on top and bottom lashes.
3.--Katie has some amazing cheekbones that are really brought out with her contour. I used the Essence Sun Club Matte Bronzer. It's $5 and smells like coconuts and works perfectly for her skin tone. A darker peach blush can be used in its place if contouring isn't your thing.
4.--Her lipstick is a lovely nude shade that is so natural and wearable. I've been obsessed with the L'Oreal Collection Exclusive Prive nudes. They have something for just about every skin tone. Pictured here is the Julianne shade, but I think the Jennifer's Nude is closer to the shade she wore (I didn't like the way it looked in the collage).

ReplyDeleteI have been MIA commenting but I have checked out some of your beauty posts, nevertheless. Hope all is well, Elle.
ReplyDeleteKatie looks STUNNING here. Love her in the whole denim look. Her hair and makeup are flawless. She always looked weird with Tom Cruise. Single life definitely agrees with her. Her Suri is a gorgeous girl, also. =)
I love this cover of her! And I think the breakdown how to get it was awesome!
