HER MAKEUP

“My inspiration was a  young Brigitte Bardotmeets-  Jane Birkin –  playful and sexy,” says  makeup artist Elain Lim.  She played up Carrie’s  eyes with strong black  liner and bold, straight  brows. The eye makeup  is complemented by  plenty of mascara,  flawlessly dewy skin and  a matte pink-beige lip.

HER HAIR

Hairstylist Dexter Ng added edgy texture and volume with John Frieda Dream Curls Styling Spray ($16.90). He finished the look with a sexy low ponytail and side-swept bangs pinned in place.
