Sophia Loren Inspired makeup

Hello chicas! (and guys)


I did a tutorial for you inspired by one of my favorite Italian actresses, Sophia Loren.
She needs no introduction since shes a legend. Famous for her timeless beauty, curvaceous Italian body and a true talent for acting (academy award and Oscar winning).
I did a makeup look which has the key elements to her signature look..hope you guys like it!
She shot to fame in the late 50s and has been an icon ever since. Her makeup always is immaculate, sexy sultry and very feminine. Known for her smoky, cat like eyes and luscious lips. 
Key elements were matte skin, bronze eyes and defined thick cat liner. Lips were matte too with a little bit of a sheen.



What I used


Face
Smashbox photo finish primer
Graftobian HD creme foundation
Graftobian invisible set powder
Nyx Blush
MAC emote blush (contour)


Eyes
88 warm palette by coastal scents (diff shades of brown)
Highlight color from palette
MAC smolder pencil
Kryolan black cake eyeliner
Smashbox brow tech


Lips
Rimmel 1000 kiss lip liner in "Tiramisu"
MAC myth lipstick
Clear gloss

I loved the fact back then being a woman meant having curves and it wasn't considered "plus size"...she was often called "the Italian Marlyn Monroe" Stunning!

Enjoy and let me know what you think!

Ciao bella's!

Inspiration moment

Ciao Bellas!

Last night i went out with my wonderful friends Elias, Catherine, and Mj to some posh places in town and ended up clubbing in Cavalli(Roberto Cavallis club in Dubai). I had a fantastic time.

My inspiration for what to wear came by mistake early on in the day when i went for sushi. I was wearing my hair up in a high bun and had a gold and sparkly headband on. Cath said it suited me because normally i NEVER wear my hair up! .....

So i got dressed in a little black dress and switched the gold headband to a silver one and i instantly felt like my

all time favourite actress, style icon, and amazing woman Audrey Hepburn. My absolute obsession of mine was particularly breakfast at Tiffany's where she played Holly Golightly and i felt like her last night haha!! (And a bit like Amy Winehouse since i was abit drunk)!:)

She is truly such an iconic figure in film and fashion and i always take inspiration from her for makeup looks because she was and always will be a timeless beauty.

Here are some wonderful pics of Audrey and the only pic i took of the night!

I think il do a makeup tutorial with the hairstyle i was wearing sometime soon!
