How-to | Lupita Nyong’o @ “Queen of Katwe” South Africa premiere

Beauty Inspiration: Nick Barose for Lancôme
“I was inspired to do something that paid homage to the beauty of Africa.”

Lupita Lancome

BROWS

Fill in brows with a bold, dark color so that the gold from the dots will really stand out. “I used Lancôme Sourcils Gel in 06 Noir on Lupita.”

Using the metallic gold shade from the Lancôme Color Design 5 Pan Eyeshadow Palette in Kissed by Gold create dots with a small, pointy eyeliner brush.

With a larger brush to apply bigger dots at the inner corners and half way through switch to a smaller brush so that the dots gradually shift from large to small, following the natural brow shape while keeping the dots delicate and precise.

EYES

Apply Lancôme Color Design Eyeshadow in It List from the lash lines up to the brow bones. Wet the shadow so you can build up the intensity.

Mix the gold shade from the Lancôme Color Design 5 Pan Eyeshadow Palette in Kissed by Gold with Mehron mixing liquid and carefully apply to the inner corners of the eyes.

Avoid false lashes or any heavy liquid liner to keep the look fresh and modern.
