Marilyn Monroe Make-up Guide
Beauty : Beauty Tips Monroe’s makeup was flawless and iconic. Her makeup style was always the same, so you can re-create the look quite easily. The Face Items: Foundation: Mac – Studio Fix Fluid Concealer: Benefit - Playstick Powder: Mac – Prep + Prime Transparent Finishing Powder (Monroe used to use Erno Lazlo Face Powder, This can still be found on a search through ebay!) Vaseline You will need foundation to start with, apply over the face with a brush. Cover dark circles under the eyes with a concealer. Finally cover the face with a translucent powder. It was said that Marilyn would rub a little Vaseline on her face to get a shine and glow. It also softens the skin. The Eyes Items: Mascara: Yves Saint Laurent – Mascara Singulier Waterproof in Vibrant Black Eyeliner: White and Black White: Mac - Eye-Kohl in Fascinating to Shop Black: Benefit - BADgirl Liner Waterproof in Black Eye shadow: (Brown shades) Elizabeth Arden - Beautiful Color Eye Shadow in Cinnamon Marilyn used a lot of Elizabeth Arden Make-up and her eye shadow was often from Elizabeth Arden Fake Eyelashes Apply the eye shadow, and then add two coats of mascara to the eyelashes. Apply false eyelash strips (not individual ones) finally add white liner to the inside of the eyes, and dark eyeliner across the upper lash line. The Lips Items: Lipstick: Guerlain Kiss Kiss (Insolence De Rouge) (Number 522) (Red is vital for the lips!) Apply some Vaseline over the lipstick for a glossy look. (This is what Marilyn used to do) The Cheeks Items: Blusher: Mac – Glamour Daze Powder Blush Highlighter: Elizabeth Arden – Pure Finish Highlighter The Nails Marilyn had perfect nails, and she always painted her nails red to match her lips. I recommend the following nail varnishes to create the perfect glamorous look. Essie Nail Polish in Red Nouveau OPI Nail Polish in The Spy Who Loved Me OPI Nail Polish in Color So Hot It Berns
