Who saw Breaking Dawn Part 2? Sorry Twihards, but I never wanted anything to do with Twilight. Kristen Stewart however, intrigues me. The actress showed up to the LA premiere of the Twilight Saga last week donning a vintage Zuhair Murad gown paired with Jimmy Choo shoes looking better than ever. I was shocked when I saw the photos and got the scoop on her glam look from her makeup artist, Jillian Dempsey.
"It was really about continuing the luminosity of her dress with shimmering makeup," Dempsey remarks. "I used iridescent shadow so the light would bounce of here eyes and contrasted bitten, almost stained lips with Kristen's porcelain skin."
Cheeks: For flushed cheeks, Dempsey used Chanel Powder Blush in In Love, but didn't go over board as she wanted to keep color focus on Kristen's lips to keep it glamorous.
Eyes: "I applied layers of shimmery taupe and gold all over the lid and then shaded the crease with a deeper color from Chanel Quadra Eyeshadow in Spices," she explains. On Kristen's upper and lower lash lines, Dempsey used Chanel Intense Eye Pencil in Noir and smudged shadow underneath the lower lash line to create a softer effect. To plump up her lashes, Dempsey used Tarte Lash Enhancing Primer than black mascara.
Lips: To hydrate, Dempsey first applied Chanel Rouge Coco Baum then lined them with Laura Mercier Lip Liner in Crushed Berry and filled them in with Chanel Rouge Allure Velvet Lip Colour in La Sensuelle.
