Of all the beautiful looks at Cannes, Emily Blunt’s bold red lip was my favorite of the festival!
There were so many drop dead gorgeous ladies at Cannes this year that it’s hard to choose just one favorite of the festival. However, Emily Blunt’s simply stunning red lip paired with her curve hugging gown of the same color was my absolute favorite. “Emily had a nice south of France sun-kissed glow that I used to my advantage,” says celebrity makeup artist Jenn Streicher who created Emily’s look for the amfAR Cinema Against AIDS gala on May 20. Thankfully, Emily’s look is surprisingly easy to achieve (especially after a nice weekend in the sun).“Instead of using foundation, I used a spray bronzer and no powder,” Jenn says. She opted for the Guerlain Terracotta Spray Bronzing Powder Mist SPF 10.To keep the focus on Emily’s bold lips, Jenn skipped traditional shadows and instead used a bit of RMS Beauty Living Luminizer on her lids with a touch of mascara.For a little pop of non-bronze color on Emily’s cheeks, Jenn used Tarte Natural Cheek Stain in Blushing Bride.Lastly, Jenn finished off the look with a “nice, bold red lip” thanks to Nars Velvet Matte Lip Pencil in Dragon Girl. – Marta Topran
