I love Lupita Nyong’o. She’s fresh, pretty but willing to take risks when it comes to her look- particularly on the red carpet!
Lupita Nyong’o looked fabulous at Glamour Women of the Year Awards on 11/12!
The Inspiration
“We wanted to create a classic, old-Hollywood look in the fashion of iconic stars like Dorothy Dandridge, Lena Horne and Billie Holiday. So, we went with creamy red lips and flirty lashes.”
The How-To
Brows
“We created elegant, slightly-retro brows by subtly extending the length of each brow, then shading them in
.”
Eyes
“I used Lancôme Color Design 5-Pan Eyeshadow Palette in bronzy-tones on Lupita’s lids and browbones, and a darker brown in the creases and outer corners.
Then, I lined her upper lash-line with Lancome Artliner in Noir to create the perfect base for her lash extensions.
To make her lashes extra glamourous, I first added fullness by applying Lashify B10 Gossamers in the center of her top lashline, then, to extend the length and create a doe-like shape, I used Lashify B12 Gossamers on just the outer corners of her eyes.”
Cheeks
“I dusted a deep plum blush on the apples of her cheeks.
Lips
“I applied two coats of Lancome L’Absolu Rouge in 151 Absolute Rouge to her lips. To make the color last longer, I applied the first coat, blotted on a tissue, then applied a second coat.”

I love the way Nick Barose used the lashes so creatively. What a great idea!!
