Warm colours and bright highlights

Another Lancôme brand ambassador, Amanda Seyfried, was also at the 93rd Annual Academy Awards. Celebrity makeup artist Genevieve Herr worked with Amanda.

“The glorious red tulle of Amanda’s gown, with its combination of classic and modern architecture, inspired me to use a bold, complementary colour on her lips, while choosing warm colours and bright highlights on her eyes,” said Genevieve Herr for Lancôme.

Skin

• Amanda used Lancôme new Clarifique Face Essence the night prior and morning-of on her face and neck for extra hydration, radiance and smooth skin texture

• Then Amanda used the Lancôme Advanced Génifique Serum, which melts into the skin for hydration and a smooth canvas for makeup application

• As the last step of prep, Genevieve applied Lancôme Prep & Hydrate Primer all over Amanda’s face for a flawless finish for all-night staying power

Face

• Next, she applied Lancôme Teint Miracle Radiant Foundation with a damp sponge and used a lighter shade of the Teint Idôle Ultra Makeup Stick as concealer where needed

• Genevieve then shaded and contoured Amanda’s cheekbones, jawline and nose with a darker shade of Lancôme new Teint Idôle Ultra Makeup Stick and blended with the built-in kabuki brush

• To highlight the cheekbones, she applied Lancôme Dual Finish Highlighter in Luminous Gold and dusted it on the high-points of the face where the light would naturally hit for an all over glow

• Genevieve used a touch of Lancôme Blush Subtil in Blushing Trésor on her fingers and blended it on the apples of the cheeks for a hint of colour

Eyes

• Genevieve lined Amanda’s upper lash line with Lancôme Le Crayon Khôl in Black Coffee, taking it from the inner corner to the outer edge, softening the line to create a subtle smokey effect

• To set the line, she used shade #5 (dark brown) from the Lancôme Hypnôse Five-Colour Eyeshadow Palette in Rose Fusion and blended it across the lash line

• On the lids, she added shade #3 (cranberry shimmer) from the palette for a rose flush

• Next, Genevieve curled Amanda’s lashes and started with Lancôme Définicils High Definition Lengthening Mascara and re-coated the lashes with Lancôme Monsieur Big Volumizing Mascara for added drama on the red carpet

Lips

• To finish the look, Genevieve lined Amanda’s lips with Lancôme Le Lip Liner in Rose Lancôme and then applied new Lancôme L’Absolu Rouge Drama Ink in Nuit Pourpre, which launches in August, for a pop of colour
