Get Her Oscar Look: Amy Adams.

by Teri on March 4th, 2008

CoverGirl Celebrity Makeup Artist, Molly R. Stern had the honor of doing the makeup for Amy Adams at last week’s Academy Awards.

Molly said that she went for a classic, simple, flawless face; “Amy is a natural beauty and you never want to over compensate on makeup. As a makeup artist I believe in never overdoing any look – makeup should accentuate the face not cover it.”

Here is what Molly used and how she applied the products to make Amy as stunning as she was on Oscar night:

Face:

  • Sheer foundation to show off the skin
  • Foundation is used sparingly where needed to create a flawless look
  • Product: CoverGirl TruBlend Liquid Makeup in Natural Ivory – this foundation goes on sheer and smooth and blends flawlessly with skin for a natural, hassle-free look
  • Product: Chantecaille Powder was used over the foundation to set the look

Cheeks:

  • A warm depth was added to Amy’s cheeks by using cream blush
  • Cream blush gives the skin a luminous glowing appearance as if the color is coming from within
  • Product: NARS Cactus Flower and a dust of Shu Uemura Amber 89 Glow created a bright rosy look with a burst of Amber color on top for added depth

Eyes:

  • Created a full eye look using the entire surface – lid to crease
  • Splitting the eye in half I created a smoldering eye by smudging copper and taupe under the eye
  • I wanted to add depth and dimension to Amy’s look while keeping it natural
  • Product: Starting with the outside of the eye I used Vincent Longo Eye Soufflé in Copper Leaf and Armani Eye Shadow in Maestro. Then inside I used NARS cream blush in Corfu
  • Product: I created a full bold lash by using CoverGirl LashBlast Mascara. Starting at the base of the lashes I gave Amy’s eyes two coats. This thickening and lengthening mascara is great for the red carpet

Lip:

  • Product: CoverGirl Outlast All-Day Lipcolor in My Papaya. I love this color! It is a rosy, earthy, lollypop color that really popped off Amy’s complexion.
  • It was not to bright but not to nude, it really suited her perfectly

Thank you to Molly R. Stern and CoverGirl for the information.
