Robert: Okay everybody's talking about, well everybody's always talking about celebrity makeup looks, but everyone's talking about how Adele looked at the Grammy's. And she looked amazing. So I want to teach you, I want to do how to do makeup look on her, but it was also one of the big looks on runway this year. Louis Vuitton, Marc Jacobs,
a lot of the big designers did what we call a Doll Lash look.
And that's exactly what Adele had so first thing I'm going to do
is I'm going to take a nice matte
white shadow
and I'm just going to highlight the lid
and the brow bone. I just want it really nice and clean.
I'm using my brush number twenty two to do it with.
Now what makes the Doll Lash look work is
is a very very
heavily lined eye, lots of lashes
and a very very soft lid.
We're going to highlight the brow bone.
You'll notice I already defined
the brows really well.
Katie has nice brows after we
tweezed the bejeezus out of them.
Now you can never put a false eyelash on until you've at least curled the lashes and so
I'm going to go ahead and curl the lashes and do one layer of mascara.
Just to kind of get them in place.
Then I'll come back to my shadow.
Okay look down.
Okay, a quick coat of mascara.
Look down, open but look down. There you go.
Now it's really important that completely at the lash line
be as dark as possible.
So before I even do any lining which I'm going to do in a few minutes, I'm going to go ahead and push,
open and look down,
from underneath I'm going to push some dark
right into the lash line.
So when those lashes are laying against
her lashes
there will be no skin showing.
Using my number forty one brush.
Just pushing some black matte
shadow.
Okay now,
this crease
wants to be defined but not super dark
'cause this is all about the lashes and the lash line.
So I want it to be super super defined.
So I'm gonna start with a lighter shade and slowly build up to a darker shade.
Using
a lighter
taupe shade.
Look at me for a second.
Now you want to follow her natural crease,
but be very exact about it.
Going right up to the brow.
So you're adding this color using your brush number thirteen so you get a really defined
crease.
Then you're going to take that line
and you're literally
gonna be very careful how you blend it out.
Open for me.
And you definitely want this
interior area to be a very very faded out.
'Cause you want that eye to open up really wide.
But you still want the definition from the outer corner.
That's why we started with a really light shade.
And now we'll go back with another layer of a little bit darker.
Go right in that crease.
We're going to connect it this time
in a "V" shape.
So using my thirteen brush,
making a "V,"
so that the outer
end of the
lid closes.
You don't want to leave it open.
Look straight ahead.
Okay now close.
Now doing the other side.
Open for me, look down.
Okay, I want to reinforce,
'cause I can, close,
where I highlighted.
Just because it's so important on this look.
And so whenever it's so important, I always go back after the midtone to reinforce
the highlights more prominent.
Patting it on to get more color.
Versus wiping.
Now, as I said there's gonna be a really strong lash line to this
and even the lashes we're using are going to be heavier at the lash line than usual.
'Cause that's part of what makes the doll look.
It's actually a look that Adele sports most of the time.
It's kind of her signature look.
She just had a more refined version of it the night of the Grammy's.
So, first thing we are going to do is we are going to line the eye with black eyeliner.
Now, you want it to be a pretty strong line because
you need a lot of,
open and look down,
you need a lot of definition and boldness at the lash line.
But don't get too wide, we can always go back and widen it
after
the lashes are on.
Because we are actually going to you
do a little bit of liquid or gel on top of the lashes
when we're done, the band of the lashes.
Remember you want it to get a little wider to the
outer edge
without exactly making a cat eye.
Okay,
now I'm going to go ahead and
set that liner a little bit.
With just a shadow over it
using
my number forty-two brush.
Open and look down.
Now we're going to take
our lashes.
And notice compared to a lot of them, see where this is very dense at the lash line,
this is a very sheer and sparse, you want that denseness
in order to create the doll lash look.
Measuring it to make sure the width is going to be correct.
It is.
Applying glue to the lash line.
Kind of rolling it and letting the glue dry a bit.
Letting that dry.
Grabbing the other lash, doing the same thing.
Open and look down.
Girl your false lashes you had on when you came in are going to be nothing compared to this.
You've got the special lashes.
Now I'm going to take my number forty two brush
and I'm going to line
her lid
with a gel or a liquid.
Look down over that way. There you go.
Like I said at the very start,
you want a lot of definition at the lash line.
You want to just barely wing it out.
We're not trying to create an Audrey Hepburn wing.
Look down for me.
Now I like to make sure
that we're nice and clean underneath the eye.
Which we should be, so I'm just going to take a tiny bit,
clean it off.
Using my brush number
fifty four
and applying concealer right underneath the eye.
I'm using a larger brush because I've got just a general area not specific
darkness.
Using my number fifty three. Just getting
rid of a couple
imperfections.
Temporary imperfections.
Now once again this is one of those looks where
she has very
matted down skin.
Look up for me.
So I'm going to go ahead and
use a highlight powder underneath the eye,
a little bit of pop.
Now I'm going to use a powder puff
to set the rest of the face.
Open, little bit of moisture.
Everybody has the most chapped lips up here.
Now, this look needs to be very naked underneath
but I don't want
the top lid to have no connection to the bottom.
So I am going to go ahead, look up,
in the outer corner
just give it a little bit of
midtone with my number thirteen brush
to create that connection.
Taking my matte white highlight, look up, and going
all around the inside corner with my number fourteen brush.
Going to just add a little more to reinforce that highlight.
Take a little mascara and blend her lashes up
into the false.
Be careful just to get her lashes
up into the base of the false
because you don't want
and that's why you choose a pretty heavy lash, you don't want this lash to look mascaraed.
You want to look like wispy doll lashes.
So I don't want to put mascara on the ends of the lash.
Then we're just going to do a little definition along the cheekbone.
Little bit of bronzer, not a lot of color to it 'cause remember it's very
doll, china doll look.
Smile for me.
Okay really?
Using my number seventy three brush
I'm adding a little definition along the cheekbone. I'm keeping it pretty minimal
because once again she's supposed to look like a doll, china doll.
With her Doll Lashes.
So the face stays pretty pale.
And if you notice anytime you see Adele she's got that kind of look to her.
Where she's just got definition with no, not a lot of color.
Now to finish up the eye,
I'm going to line the inside wet tissue with a white eyeliner pencil.
Once again
to reinforce the china doll look.
So that her Doll Lashes
look like Doll Lashes.
Okay look up.
Okay now I'm going to blot off the balm I put on her lips.
You could go with a dark lip
but that's really not what this look is all about.
As I'm sure you've seen, Adele never wears really dark lip color.
At the Grammy's she didn't wear dark lip color.
I am going to just slightly
conceal the edge of her lips away
just to create a little more
nude effect.
But I am gonna line.
Adele always has a very precise
lip line.
Just using a very
pale lip liner
with a hint of color to it.
With that white it really does make her eyes look like doll eyes.
How blue and round they are.
The white makes them look slightly glassy.
Either that or you're high.
I'm just kidding.
Filling in slightly. I'm going to
blend it out.
Then taking a slightly pink nude,
slightly pink nude lipstick.
Once again reinforcing that doll like appearance.
Straight off the runways of Gucci and Louis Vuitton. I'm sorry, Louis Vuitton and Marc Jacobs.
Which is kind of ironic since he designs for both.
Both shows had the same look.
Sorry, I was struck by the irony suddenly.
Taking a little bit of a shimmery gloss.
There you have it.
You can see that, once again the look was all about Doll Lashes.
She definitely has the Doll Lashes.
Adele at the Grammy's had very very very
clean porcelain skin with those thick Doll Lashes. It's about not a lot underneath the eye,
heavy top lash line and then a really soft soft lip.
