Beyonce Makeup

How to do your makeup like Beyonce

Beyonce never shies away from the spotlight. In fact, her makeup is a study in light-reflecting textures and rich colors like gold and chocolate brown. Even if you don't have dark skin you can score a glamorous, Beyonce-inspired look with these easy (or shall we say beautylicious?) makeup tricks. Try on Beyonce makeup in our virtual makeup studio.

Beyonce's Eye Makeup

Go all-out ultra glamorous like Beyonce by framing your eyes with a brow pencil and stencil, which will help you achieve symmetry on both sides. Beyonce's arches are exaggerated and you can steal this look by creating more volume on the tops of your brows by shading them in with a matching powder.

Try the newest trend in creamy or glossy eye shadows, which reflect light and lend your face a futuristic finish. If you love powder eye shadow for everyday, opt for light-reflecting golds and shimmery browns.

Beyonce's makeup may be glam, but it's never overwhleming, calling attention to her gorgeous features by way of expert application. Elongate your eyes with makeup by sweeping the shadow in an upward motion at the outer corners. Eyeliner should be thicker at the outer corners as well, followed by a few individual false lashes. This will appear to "lift" the eyes.

Beyonce's Foundation

Beyonce is never without a lit-from-within glow that comes from having flawless skin. You can create a little optical illusion to get skin like Beyonce, here's how: mix a luminzing liquid bronzer (with gold undertones) with your everyday foundation and apply it directly onto the skin with a dry kabuki brush for an airbrush-like finish. On the high points of the face (above the eyebrows, tops of the cheekbones and down the center of the nose), place a bit of liquid highlighter and blend it out. This makeup trick prevents foundation from looking too muddy if you have dark skin and imparts just-back-from-Ibiza radiance. Fair skinned maidens will also benefit from a lumizing bronzer and highlighter. --Stephanie Simons
