Beauty Icon : Grace Kelly inspired make-up tutorial

Beauty Icon : Grace Kelly inspired make-up tutorial 

Today I'm doing a tutorial inspired by one of my all time favorite beauty icon : Grace Kelly (also known as a Princess of Monaco). 

She is to me, the most beautiful blonde actress ever in the cinema past and present. She was just pure grace and elegance. I'm a huge fan of her movies (even if I wish she did more !). "Rear Window" is in my top 10 all time favorite movies. She was such a wonderful actress and human being. 
Other movie I'm a huge fan of are :  
- "Dial M for Murder" (such a classic !)
- "Mogambo" (with the amazing Clark Gable and Ava Gardner - Ava is also one of my all time favorites she was just so beautiful and fun ! You should see her dance at the last ball Grace Kelly hold, she was dancing and flirting with people like if she was still 25 ! It makes me laugh every time I see the clip of it ! )
- "To Catch a Thief" (with Cary Grant - marry me now please !)

Grace Kelly was not only a great actress, she was also a wonderful human being. She is the one who inspired Princess Diana. She took part in a lot of humanitarian actions (she also hold charity balls) and she was in particular touched by sick children and old people. Let's not forget her love for her family. She brought back life and happiness to Monaco and to the life of her husband Reiner III, Prince of Monaco ; who had a quite "boring" childhood. A wonderful initiative she took, was to make movies of her family. Those are amazing to watch and you could really see how dedicated to her family she was (she had 3 children). 
She left Hollywood for her new life as the Princess of Monaco but never forgot her old friends (she invited them to Monaco and she also made movies of it with are very interesting to watch). She was a very melancholic person. 

She unfortunately died in a car accident in 1982 at the age of 52. On the 14th of September 2012, it will be 30 years since she passed away. Her funeral (which was of course filmed) is heartbreaking to watch.

For that tutorial I had my dear friend and model to help me recreating the look :)

Rita Hayworth 40's Glamour inspired make-up tutorial 

A little bit about Rita : 

Rita Hayworth, born Margarita Carmen Casino, was an american (of spanish heritage) actress and dancer. She was best known for her role in the 1946's movie "Gilda". She was crowned "the love goddess" back in the days. 

Although she mostly portrayed very glamorous and sexy characters in her movies, she was in real life a very shy and down to earth person. She never found true happiness and her love affairs (she got married and divorced 5 times) were all doomed to fail. 

She was formally an exquisite dancer since the early age of 4, when her father pushed her into dancing. Later on she became an actress. She never fully filmed the movies she wanted as the studios were keeping her "sexy and glamorous" style to the fullest. She wanted to be a drama actress. Most of her husbands controlled her life and career and mostly saw her as a trade mark. Some of her husbands even revealed to be physically abusive. 

She died at the age of 68 in 1987, of a newly discovered decease and still unknown to be cured by doctors : Alzheimer. She had 2 children. 

Her story is quite sad as she never got to pursue her true dream, finding love and being happy with her family and friends.

Her make-up & Hair : 

Rita was a natural dark brunette though for commercials purposes she had her hair going from light brunette, blonde and red. She had gorgeous naturally very full wavy hair. It's unfortunate to say that because she had a very small squared forehead, she actually had some of her front hair removed which was extremely painful. 

Lisafreemontstreet ( youtube channel : http://www.youtube.com/user/lisafreemontstreet ) did some hair tutorials which I advice you to watch. 

Rita had beautiful naturally healthy skin. Back then they were using a very heavy moisturizing cream (resembling vaseline) and stick foundation. She even became a spoke-person for Max factor. The ending look gave a semi-matte finish with an underneath glow. She had quite a square face but her heaviest contouring was around her nose. Her eye brows were very thin and elongated to her temples. Her eye make-up was very simple, she mainly wore a light warm brown eye shadow on her lids and a brownish/grey color closer to her lash line. She sometimes had a very thin eye liner on her top lash line and a light shadow on her lower lash line. She had full lashes which is why it's very important to either wear fake lashes or tones of mascara ! She had quite large and full lips and depending on her hair color she wore either a rosy red or orange red lipstick. When she became older she then wore a light orange peach lipstick. Blush wasn't the focus on her face, but she wore quite neutral shades.

Make-up How-to : Airbrush foundation with TEMPTU PRO

Make-up How-to : Airbrush foundation with TEMPTU PRO 

Buy the TEMPTU PRO AirTM airbrush system here : http://shop.temptupro.com/

Let me start by saying that nothing can beat airbrush foundation. The result is the best of the best. It looks fantastic and feels fantastic too (actually you don't feel anything on your skin). 

I thought I would make a tutorial on how to do your foundation using an airbrush system with an airbrush gun. (I do not have nor do love in air pod system). 

The airbrush system that I own is the TEMPTU PRO AirTM System. Yes it is a very expensive airbrush system but it's also one the best on the market right now. 

I will be doing a review on it later on this blog, so stay tuned for that ! 

The products that I'm using are all S/B products (Silicone based). I tried water based ones but I didn't like them as much as I like S/B ones. The result is much more natural with S/B products at least for me. (and I never tired Dura products so I can't tell you about them). 

Don't forget to match your foundation to your chest's colour ! No white head&neck and darker body ! And if you are a little bit red because of sunburn like my model, find an area that shows the actual real tanned colour of your skin. Don't try to match your foundation to the redness of your skin.
