I’m not ashamed to confess I have a HUGE girl crush on Lily Collins. I love how much of a natural beauty she is, and I always take cues from her make-up looks. So I thought I’d try my luck at recreating one of my favourites. To see how I did it, watch the video above or check out the step-by-step below.
Step #1
Starting with your foundation already on, apply a pink blush to the apples of your cheeks.

Step #2
Line your eyes both underneath and above with a gold eyeliner. Then, apply mascara and allow to set.

Step #3
To get your brows to stick up like Lily’s, use a brow gel with a spoolie brush applicator and brush them upwards. Try to find a coloured one for extra definition.

Step #4
By now, your mascara should be dry, so go ahead and apply a set of false lashes.

Step #5
It’s time for the best part: the gorgeous dark berry lip! For the perfect mix of colour, apply a red lipstick and then a coat of plum over the top. This creates a really pigmented reddish-purple colour that can be easily adjusted throughout the year to suit your skin tone.
