When Angelina Jolie isn’t playing a super-hero on the screen, she’s busy being a hero to impoverished and needy children around the world. When inner and outer beauty come together like that, it’s a wonderful thing, indeed. Take some inspiration from Angelina, and play up your eyes while keeping the rest of your face neutral.

FACE |
|
|
| Foundation /
Concealer
|
To recreate this look, you'll want to use neutral shades everywhere on the face except the eyes. After moisturizing, apply a matte or satin foundation, blending carefully around the jawline. Next, apply concealer under the eyes and on the lids. Conceal any blemishes. Then, use a large powder brush to lightly dust on a loose powder to set makeup. Use a puff or sponge to apply powder generously around the eyes -- this will give eyeliner optimal staying power.
|
| Blush |
Use a delicate pink or peach blush, whichever compliments your skin tone and eye color best. If your face is full, apply blush to the apples of your cheeks. If your face is oval or narrow, you can apply blush higher on the cheekbone.
|
| EYES |
|
|
| Eyelid |
Apply a pearly neutral taupe or nude shadow from the lid to the crease. Swipe a light touch of this along your lower lash line.
|
| Crease |
Use a medium brown color in the crease from corner to corner.
|
| Hilite |
Use a nude or cream shade sparingly on the brow bone.
|
| Eyeliner |
Choose a blue/black or black wet powder or pencil liner. Aim your brush or pencil at your top lash line from underneath and at the lower lash line from above. Try using a dotting motion with a very light touch.
Next, go back and aim your pencil or brush at the upper lash line from above. Starting from the inner corner, gradually widen the line upward as you progress toward the outer corner. The further you draw beyond the outer corner of your eye and the wider the line gets, the more dramatic and catlike your eyes will appear. |
Brows |
Define brows with a powder or pencil in a shade just slightly darker than your hair color. Start by defining the arch and then fill in the rest as necessary.
|
Mascara |
Curl lashes and coat with a black, lengthening mascara.
|
LIPS |
|
|
|
Choose a delicate pink or nude lipstick. Apply a coat and then blot with tissue. Repeat. Apply a touch of a sheer tinted gloss. You can use a pearly formulation if you like, but keep it sheer.
