Empire is gearing up for a much-anticipated fourth season, Taraji. P. Henson debuted a new look at the show’s season premiere last night that is so fierce! Her signature flawless skin was downright iridescent as she stepped out with a trendy new hairstyle to show off her statement ear candy – #WANT.
Taraji’s go-to makeup guru, Ashunta Sheriff shares the beauty break-down for this to capture her lit-from-within glow:
SKIN
–I always start with clean skin and I love using NeoStrata Foaming Glycolic Cleanser to begin so pores are really clean.
–I then used MAC Vibrancy Eye Cream, Strobe Creme in Pink Lite, Prep and Prime and Lip Conditioner to prep and condition her skin.
–I used MAC Studio Sculpt Foundation in NC45 all over and MAC Mineralize Concealer in NC30 in her t-zone to create a subtle lift.
–I contoured and sculpted cheekbones and nose with Film Noir Matte Blush.
–Then I popped checks with wrapped Candy Extra Dimension Blush and added a high watt ‘POW’ on cheekbones with Mineralization Skin Finish in Gold Deposit. I added Soft Focus on top for an alien luminescent glow.
Finally, I set look with MAC Prep + Prime Finishing Powder using a large powder brush and Setting Spray for a night full of carpets and cameras to hydrate skin and give it a fresh look.
Love love LOVE this look! It’s absolutely gorgeous. Taraji is more than fierce, she’s on fire! What a great job Ashunta Sheriff did!
Thank you Ashunta Sheriff for the great tips and tricks!!
