Lupita Nyong’o at Cannes 2015 – Get That Lip Look!

May 13, 2015 by afrobella 6 Comments

If you haven’t yet realized that I’m an unabashed Lupita stan, now’s as good a time as any. I think she’s absolutely gorgeous, and so classy and elegant. Lupita Nyong’o came to SLAY the red carpet at Cannes, resplendent in custom Gucci chiffon. Her makeup was by Nick Barose for Lancôme, and I had to get the full breakdown on that LIP because it is a SITUATION that needs to be replicated. I’m in love. Here’s the scoop!

 

Lupita at Cannes

 

For the opening night of Cannes, Lancôme Ambassadress Lupita Nyong’o embodied movie star glamour on the red carpet. To compliment her stunning green gown, makeup artist Nick Barose gave the actress dramatic, full brows, elegantly-lined eyes and a bold fuchsia lip.

FACE:
• Advanced Génifique Youth Activating Concentrate
• La Base Pro Pore Eraser
• NEW Miracle Cushion Liquid Compact Makeup in 500 Suede
• Translucence Mattifying Silky Pressed Powder in 550 Suede
• Blush Subtil in Plum Noir
• Le Duo Stick in Suede

EYES:
• Sourcils Tint Longwear Eyebrow Pen in Noir
• Artliner in Noir
• Le Stylo Waterproof Eyeliner in Noir Intense
• Grandiôse Mascara in Noir Mirifique

LIPS:
• Color Design Lipcolor in Hit List
• NEW Shine Lover Lipstick in Palpitante
• Le Crayon Lip Contour in Plum

So what’s the tip on the lip? Hit List is a bold pink matte lipstick. Palpitante is a sexy, shiny hot pink. And plum pulls it all together and gives it that pop and that edge. Here’s Nick’s tip: “Apply bold bluish pink lipstick (Color design Lipstick in Hit List), then add a bit of sheen using Shine Lover in 373 Palpitante, and trace along the edges to slighly define lips using Le Crayon Lip Pencil in Plum.” Boom. That’s a red carpet lip right there. And that’s the word from my friends at Lancome. Et voila. Do you love it? Because I LOVE IT!

    She is so beautiful!! I only buy Lancome products because of her. I was in Sephora and saw her gorgeous face, so I bought a new lipgloss.

    You must also know how to self-rescue in case you
    fall off the kayak; this happens often, so be careful. This does mean that the kayak needs to be
    carried on the roof of a car, in the back of a truck, or perhaps in an SUV with
    some seats removed. The strap keeps the helmet in contact with the head all the
    time.
