UMA THURMAN MAKEUP
UMA THURMAN MAKEUP: SKIN
You don’t have to have perfect skin to attain this Uma Thurman beauty look. But it is never too late to start taking care of your skin. Make day and night skincare part of your routine and you will be on your way to perfect skin like Uma Thurman. Cleanse and moisturize your face, both in the morning and night, with products that are appropriate for your skin type (oily, dry, comb). Dermalogica makes great skin kits for every skin type, making it easy for you to incorporate skincare into your busy schedule.
To get Uma Thurman’s healthy glow, try a loose powder mineral foundation, like Herbs of Grace Mineral Foundation. It’s a skin healthy alternative to the regular base. It applies flawlessly with a fluffy powder brush, such as Nars Botan Brush, and is extremely long wearing. Lightly buff the powder onto the face, in a circular motion. And pay close attention to the t-zone. Don’t over do it! A little mineral powder goes a long way.
Cheek stains, like Tarte Cheek Stain, tend to be a favorite of makeup artists, celebrities, and regular women alike. They are easy to find and apply; they look the most natural. Cheek stains are usually applied with either your clean fingers or a small sponge. For those who love to use brushes, a synthetic foundation brush can also be used. Make sure you apply a little at a time and only to the apples, or balls, of the cheeks to create a similar look to Uma Thurman’s.
For dry skin: If you have very dry skin, cream rouge, like True Cosmetics Cream Blush, is a fantastic option also. Creams tend to be more moisturizing and will definitely give that Uma Thurman glow. Use your fingers, a sponge, or a foundation brush to stipple, or buff, the cream on to the apples of the cheeks for the best results. You can find a great foundation brush at Seraph Cosmetics L.A. boutique or on their website.
Step 1: On the eyelid use a soft, neutral color, like Grain by MAC Cosmetics, as your base and highlight. A deeper bronzy plum, such as MAC Shadow in Sable, is a perfect choice for the lid color. Using a large shadow brush, such as Joey New York’s large shadow brush, apply color on the lid (or ball of the eye), also taking the color lightly under the eyes with the same brush. This will give the eye balance and add a little highlight under the eye.
Step 2: Using soft kohl eyeliner in a dark bronzy brown, like MAC Eye Kohl in Teddy, create a soft line on the top lid as close to the lash line as possible. Then run the liner on the inside of your eye just on the bottom to create that sexy smokiness. To blend the eyeliner for a more smoky effect, use a small angle brush, like Jane Iredale’s Angle Brush on top lid over the drawn line.
Step 3:You can apply individual false lashes to really makae your eyes pop. Try Ardell Duralash Naturals in Medium Black look the closest to natural lashes and they will really open up and intensify the eyes. Using a clear lash adhesive, like Ardell’s version, apply a tiny pin drop of adhesive on the end of the individual lash and place on top of your actual lashes. Start from the ends of lashes and work your way to the middle, placing each lash next to one another creating a fluffy half lash. Apply about 5-6 lashes to get Uma Thurman’s look. Wait a couple of minutes for the glue to dry before applying a light coat of mascara to give the eyes one last pump of sexiness. Try L’Oreal Voluminous Mascara in Black Brown or Soft Black.
Eyebrows are very important as they give shape to the face. Using a small natural hair angle brush, apply an eyebrow powder that is as close to your hair color as possible. Anastasia’s Brows pallettes are fabulous. Use the dry brush and powder to softly accentuate your natural brow and create an arch. Then comb a clear brow gel, like GloMinerals gloBrow Gel in Clear, on top to set the brow.
To finish off this Uma Thurman look apply a glossy, but not shimmery, pink lip gloss. Lancome’s Juicy Tubes have a fantastic assortment of pinky colors and they smell (and taste) divine.
