Adele Inspired Makeup on My Auntie

My aunt had a wedding to go to, and entrusted her face unto me!!! I had so much fun creating this Adele inspired look.


The key to an Adele-inspired look is a dark cut-crease blending up to a matte browbone highlight. The lid colour should also be light, with a shimmer inner corner and winged eyeliner. I toned down the eyeliner and added some lash inserts here. I went for a nude-pink lip colour that would not overpower the eyes, and I went for a strong cheek contour like Adele has. The whole look is very 60's mod inspired with a modern edge.

Products Used:

Face:
-L'Oreal face primer
-MAC Face and Body Foundation C5
-Laura Mercier Matte Translucent Powder
-Tarte bronzer in Parke Ave. Princess (heavy contour in the hollows of the cheeks, jaw and temples)
-Nars blush in Orgasm
-MAC eyeshadow in Charcoal Brown

Eyes:
-Urban Decay Primer Potion
-MAC eyeshadow in All That Glitters (shimmery nude colour on the main lid area)
-MAC eyeshadow in Carbon (matte black etched in the crease, outer corners and lower lashline)
-Too Faced eyeshadow in Like a Virgin (fluffed into the black in the crease and lower lashline)
-MAC eyeshadow in Red Violet (used to blend out the crease)
-Inglot eyeshadow #351 (matte cream shade on the browbone)
-Urban Decay eyeshadow in Sin (inner corners)
-Bobbi Brown Gel eyeliner in Caviar Ink
-Quo Lash Inserts
