The Glow That Lay Below Rosamund Pike’s Headpiece

If, like us, you sat on the edge of your seat through Golden Globes red carpet glam, then we’re guessing you were equally captivated by Rosamund Pike’s black birdcage headpiece. And while the funeral-chic-meets-avant-garde veil wasn’t what we were expecting, it just worked. But we tell you what, thank goodness for social media giving us a closer glimpse into the stunning rosy glow that lay beneath. 

Golden Globes Glam

Makeup artist to the stars Mélanie Inglessis (well-known for her ability to create radiant skin), was trusted by Rosamund to create the flawless look (that we just wish we got to see more of) that accompanied that headpiece. Sharing on her social media the steps (and lucky for us, exact products), she detailed everything that went into giving Rosamund an enviable rosy glow. 

The Skincare Secrets

Mélanie started by prepping her skin with Image Skincare face and eye masks (because we’re sure the Golden Globes pre-party still has some lingering effects the next morning). and then went in with the Image Skincare Vital C range (as we all know vitamin C is a trusty glow-getter). 

The Makeup Rundown

So here’s where we get very excited. Not only was the entire makeup look created using Dior (a luxe experience indeed) but our new fave makeup artist Mélanie showed us all the need-to-know deets, palettes and colours of what she chose to create the unimaginable rosy glow.

Starting with the “soft but luminous” glow across her lids, Mélanie chose to go with a peachy wash of colour, utilising the Diorshow 5 Couleurs Couture Eyeshadow Palette in ‘Amber Pearl’ ($120 at Sephora). Next up, her perfected pout, because we know no celeb is hitting the red carpet without a lick of lippy. Her pout was lined for long-lasting colour with the Dior Contour Lip Liner in ‘593 Brown Fig’ ($51 at Sephora) and topped off with a hydrating swatch of unmissable neutral perfection i.e. Dior Rouge Dior Lipstick in ‘100 Nude Look’ ($66 at Sephora). 

And while we don’t know for certain how she created those rosy glowing cheeks, our best bet is the iconic Dior Backstage Rose Glow Blush (we may have spied the trio on the makeup table).

So there we have it: a closer look behind the veil. While we still love our out there makeup looks (don’t get us wrong), we’re also very here for the more neutral approach to glam that we saw walking the Golden Globes red carpet this year.
