Copycat Makeup: Emma Watson

Emma Watson has a level of sophistication way beyond her years. Emma is one of the few Hollywood starlets that can manage to look sophisticated and put together without looking like she is trying to look older, more mature or simply not being herself. Emma Watson's hair and style have caused quite a stir, but a quality about her that is highly admirable and coveted by women of all ages is her seamless and classy makeup. If you are one of the women who are coveting this young Hollywood starlet's makeup, read on for some great tips on how to get Emma's look.

Face

Emma likes to keep it simple when it comes to her face makeup. Unlike most young Hollywood starlets, Emma isn't messing around with bronzer or too much blush for contouring. As her countrywomen (France), Emma keeps her overall face look simple and sophisticated. To get her look you need to get a concealer that is two tones lighter than your natural skin tone to properly conceal those dark circles and blemishes. You also need a foundation that exactly matches your skin tone. Other essentials that do not require much color accuracy are a moisturizer with SPF, primer, setting powder and blush.

Apply in this order

Apply moisturizer first and let sit for two minutes while it soaks into the skin. Once the moisturizer has soaked in apply the primer, primer allows the makeup to looks flawless for the entire day. After the primer you will have to dab concealer on to your under eye circles and blemishes to conceal them, apply with a concealer brush if possible. Now its time for the foundation, foundation is the most important part of this process because this is what will make your face look flawless (if done correctly). Assuming that you are applying a liquid foundation, pump half of a pump onto each cheek and then a half a pump spread through your T-zone (forehead, nose and chin). Blend the foundation all through your face, remembering to blend down to the neck, hairline and ears as well to provide a seamless finish. Once you are done applying your foundation apply your chosen shade of blush (preferably light pink, since that is the color that Emma Watson wears.) and finally set your face for long wear with a quick dab of setting powder.

Eyes and Lips

Emma Watson's eye look is relatively simple, being that she rarely ever wears highly pigmented shadows. Her preferred and most used eye shadow look is the "natural beauty". To get Emma Watson's eye makeup look, use earth tones such as beige and brown. Eyeliner is a must in Emma's makeup, so be sure to incorporate dark brown or black eye liner in to your eye makeup look with tons of mascara. Emma's lips are truly the star of the show; she always dons fire engine red lipstick. To achieve the look, simply choose the right lipstick for your skin tone. Blue toned red lipstick for fair skin, orange toned red for medium to olive skin and burgundy red for dark skin tones. A good rule of thumb is to exfoliate and moisturize skin before applying red lipstick. Red lipstick is unforgiving and will call attention to even the slightest chap that is in your lips. After applying your red lipstick, finish off the look with a gloss.
