"Severine" from Skyfall Inspired Makeup Look

Inspiration Photo

 It's no surprise that one of the first things I notice when watching a film is the makeup. I love getting ideas from movies and other makeup artists. I actually did this look awhile ago and I have finally have the time to post it! I saw the Skyfall trailer and I fell in love with Severine's makeup. (Side note, I have never seen any James Bond movie. Yes, life fail, I know.) She had daring bold eyes paired with a dark lip. Anyone that knows me, knows I love  dark, smokey eyes and vampy lips. I will add that the lip gloss used for this look was not my favorite. It feathered a bit and was not as opaque as I would have liked. When re-creating this look, I suggest using a dark plum lipstick instead of a gloss. Or if you use a gloss put a lip liner under the gloss so that the gloss is less likely to feather.

This look is perfect for a date, night on the town or the approaching New Years Eve. Despite the look being rather bold, it is quite simple and uses very little products. I will have the products listing below along with the technique I used on the eyes. As always, enjoy!
