So, two days ago me and my college mates went to see Carrie and boy, was it good.
For starters:
Both of them, in the same movie.
So perfect.
And I know, I know. If the movie you're about to watch has your favourite cast in it, you'll instantly love everything about it.
But really, Carrie was just what I needed after Insidious 2 and The Conjuring. No spoilers here, so all I'll say is that I enjoyed it. And you should watch it, too. Go. Go swoon over Ansel like I did. *smiles sweetly and pretends a halo glows over my head*
Besides Ansel Elgort looking like a total hottie, lets move on to Chloe Moretz.
You should already know she is BEAUTIFUL. She has such a unique face shape and her hair is perfect however she - or her hairstylist - styles it.
In the movie, she didn't look like she had on anything on her skin. I mean, Carrie's mum probably never told her makeup existed. Not that she needed any, anyway.
But coming to the prom scenes, there was a part where she applied makeup and it was only a rosey nude-coloured lipstick.
Chloe Moretz's makeup has always been fresh and sort of satin-matte. It's as if she has a dewy foundation on (think light coverage) and set loosely with translucent powder, still letting the skin show but evens out the redness.
Her eyebrows are neatly groomed but doesn't look tweezed. Which, really, is how teenagers should have their eyebrows look like. Nothing done to them. The bushier, the better. Unless it really bothers you, but please don't just shave them off like how Georgia (albeit accidentally) shaved half of hers off in Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging.
She always has rosy cheeks in most of her red carpet looks and they're never anything harsh or really muddy. I don't think she even uses bronzer. Just a sweep of a rosy or peachy pink colour down her cheekbones.
Her eyelids - they're hooded and mostly all of us could relate to that. We apply eyeshadow, open our eyes up and see that the colour has vanished altogether. Chloe always has a few coats of mascara on her lashes and a thin line of black eyeliner.
And her perfectly shaped lips usually have something nude with a glossy swipe on them orrrrr she leaves them just like that.
It's the perfect No Makeup makeup look. For school, uni or running daily errands.
My recreation on this look:
Face: Inglot YSM Cream Foundation #49, Rimmel Stay Matte Powder
Eyes: Maybelline Hyper Glossy Liquid Liner, Maybelline Volum' Express The Falsies Mascara, Stila All Over Shimmer Duo (tearduct)
Cheeks and Lips: Tarte Natural Cheek Stain in Blissful
“Very sweetly, he always told her he loved her just the way she was. Although, honestly he had no idea. She shuddered to think what she would really look like if she stopped waxing, plucking, highlighting, manicuring, applying make-up anddressing with care and concentration.”
