Beauty Muse – Kate Winslet

btslan11

The Oscar-winning British actress; Kate Winslet, a brand ambassador for Lancôme, has one of the most beautiful faces in the world. So it comes as no surprise that she is a Beauty Muse on Fashion and Style Police. I love her beautiful eyes and flawless skin. Her makeup is always on point, and she looks equally as beautiful without any makeup, in a different way. She also looks even more beautiful with age, beauty goals right here.

Here are some of her beauty secrets of the 40-year-old stunner:

Fresh air does wonders for my skin so I keep a window open in my room at night for a little bit of breeze. I try to get as much sleep as possible, and drink plenty of water too. Wearing make-up can make a woman feel confident, feminine and celebrated – and I think it also brings a sense of liberation.

My beauty icon is the make-up artist Lisa Eldridge. She is confident in herself and truly loves her job, which makes her a joy to work with.’

‘Glamour to me is about remaining graceful and understated. For example, with very bold lip colors, you can’t overdo the rest of your face,” the actress says. “With a bright-red party lipstick, just go with lots of mascara and keep everything else clean.’

“I rarely rely on one foundation – mixing two colors can make a big difference. I never use too much powder, only in the right areas [such as the T-zone]. I have peachy fuzz on my cheeks, so I have to be careful with powder.” 
Great tip here. I mix two shades of my MAC foundation too because I couldn’t get the right shade on its own. Mixing foundations does work!
I adore everything about Kate Winslet. Her down to earth personality and honesty is so rare, it is refreshing. She looks as beautiful on the inside, as she does on the outside.

Lupita Nyong’o Covers Elle UK January 2016 Issue

ELLE_UK_January_Cover-510x677

The black and beautiful Lupita Nyong’o covers Elle Magazine UK January 2016 issue. This beauty looks amazing on the cover. I love her hair and makeup, and her Louis Vuitton outfit looks stunning. This Lancôme’s first-ever black ambassador is like a breath of fresh air, I love everything she represents and I am super excited to see her on Elle cover.

I remember Lupita Nyong’o from her Shuga Days (an African series), and I am so proud for all what she has achieved in such a short time. For a woman who was once told she was too dark for Hollywood, and would never make it as an actress, only for her to go on to win her Oscar for 12 Years A Slave in January last year, and to become a household name, and a force to reckon with in the entertainment industry, she has done pretty well for herself.

If you turn on the television and you are not represented on that television, you become invisible to yourself. And there was very little of myself that I saw on TV, or in the movies that I was watching, or in magazines that were lying around the salons or around the house. And so these are subconscious things. Yes, Western beauty standards are things that affect the entire world. And then what happens? You’re a society that doesn’t value darker skin.’

 

I must confess I didn’t take to Lupita at first. I was not so impressed with her in the movie – 12 Years A Slave (I preferred the other black woman with the kids), but her drive and determination to succeed inspires me. She is the real deal.

I will be picking up a copy of this issue, I can’t wait to read all what Lupita Nyong’o has to say. The ‘How To Shop The Sale’ and ‘Do You Have The Superwoman Syndrome’ features also look like a good read. I can always trust the Elle Team to deliver on each issue.

What do you think of the cover? Are you a fan of Lupita? Sound off in the comment section, let’s talk.

Thanks for reading. Have a great week.
