Typically, celebrities don't travel without their A-list entourage, but last night, Ashley Madekwe left the glam squad at home and did her own makeup for the Audi and W magazine pre-Golden Globes parties. She posted a finished photo and shopping list to her Instagram page [1], where she also shouted out her missing makeup artist Allan AvendaƱo. "I did my own makeup for tonight's pre Golden Globes event. Damn I miss you @allanface!" she wrote. Getting the look is super easy.
We've broken down how to re-create Ashley's look using her chosen products. To start, apply MAC Face and Body Foundation [2] ($27) to give your skin a dewy finish. Then, add dimension to your face by contouring. With an angled powder brush, sweep Nars Bronzer in Laguna [3] ($36) from the center of your ear to the corner of your mouth. Create a bold red lip courtesy of Nars Velvet Matte Lipstick in Dragon Girl [4] ($25). Complete the look with black eyeliner just on the top lid, several coats of mascara, and filled-in eyebrows. If Ashley can do her own red-carpet-worthy look, you surely can, too!
