No matter how many hours we spend our happy lamps, it’s hard to find things to smile about as winter weather continues to ruin our happiness and hair. Allow us to direct your attention to the glowing face of Lea Seydoux, if you’re in the same freezing-cold boat. Surely this luminous complexion couldn’t occur during the coldest, darkest time of year and this image looks like it was taken in May.
What you’re witnessing actually is a well-executed highlighter: a make-up marvel at work. Seydoux looks like she’s bathing in warm afternoon sunlight as it is applied to the inner corners of her eyes, tops of her cheekbones and on either side of her nose. To keep the whole look beautifully fresh and simple, it looks like she’s wearing the same pink tint on her cheeks and lips.
We love using celestial Powder in Candlelight by Kevyn Aucoin, for a similar effect. And the brand’s Celestial Skin Liquid Lighting blends beautifully for darker skin tones. So, it means that you don’t have to look like a victim of the zombieapocalypse in winter.
