For the 2021 Critics Choice Awards,

Celebrity Makeup Artist Genevieve Herr worked with Lancôme Brand Ambassador Amanda Seyfried,

nominated for Best Supporting Actress for her role in Mank.

 

GENEVIEVE’S INSPIRATION

“My inspiration for Amanda’s makeup was a modern take on Cabaret. A kind of vintage “movie star” glamour with a shout out to today’s trends. A smokey eye, but more subtle; a saturated red lip with a dash of pink.”

– Genevieve Herr for Lancôme

 

 

How To Get Amanda’s Look:

 

SKIN:

  • Amanda used Lancôme NEW Clarifique Face Essence the night prior and morning-of on her face and neck for extra hydration, radiance and smooth skin texture
  • Genevieve then applied Lancôme Prep & Hydrate Primer all over Amanda’s face, which is an important step to hydrate and prepare the skin for foundation application

 

FACE:

  • Next, she applied Lancôme Teint Miracle Radiant Foundation with a damp sponge and used a lighter shade of the NEW Lancôme Teint Idôle Ultra Makeup Stick as concealer where needed
  • Genevieve then shaded and contoured Amanda’s cheekbones, jawline and nose with a darker shade of NEW Lancôme Teint Idôle Ultra Makeup Stick and blended with the built-in kabuki brush
  • To highlight the cheekbones, she applied Lancôme Dual Finish Highlighter in Luminous Gold and dusted it on the high-points of the face where the light would naturally hit for an all over glow
  • Genevieve used a touch of Lancôme Blush Subtil in Cedar Rose on her fingers and blended it on the apples of the cheeks for a hint of color

 

EYES:

  • Genevieve lined Amanda’s upper lash line with Lancôme Le Stylo Eyeliner in Noir, taking it from the inner corner to the outer edge, softening the line to create a subtle smoky effect
  • To set the line, she used the black shade from the Lancôme Hypnôse 5-Color Eyeshadow Palette in Smokey Chic and blended it across the lash line
  • On the lids, she added the silver shade from the palette and then highlighted the inner corner with the lighter silver shade from the same palette
  • Genevieve curled Amanda’s lashes and applied two generous coats of Lancôme Lash Idôle Mascara
  • To define her brows, Genevieve used Lancôme Brow Define Pencil in Dark Blonde

 

LIPS

  • To finish the look, Genevieve lined Amanda’s lips with Le Lip Liner in Rose Lancôme and then applied Lancôme L’Absolu Rouge Intimatte in Rose Lancôme for a pop of pink

 

 

SHEIKA’S INSPIRATION

“The entire look of the night was inspired by the late Cicely Tyson. This look was about fun and adding a pop of color.

We haven’t played with color in a while and wanted to add something bold against the volume and brightness of the skirt.

We played around with colors and ultimately decided on the eyes being the focal point.”

– Sheika Daley for Lancôme

 

 

How To Get Zendaya’s Look:

 

SKIN:

  • To prep Zendaya’s skin and to provide instant radiance, Sheika applied both the Lancôme Advanced Genifique Hydrogel Melting Sheet Mask and the Lancôme Advanced Genifique Light Pearl Hydrogel Melting 360 Eye Mask
  • Then, Sheika gently applied Lancôme Advanced Genifique Serum to ensure Zendaya’s skin was hydrated and ready for makeup application

 

FACE:

  • Once Zendaya’s skin was prepped, Sheika applied Lancôme Teint Idôle Ultra Wear Foundation in 425 Bisque Warm and used Lancôme Teint Idôle Ultra Stick in 420 Bisque Neutral where needed for contour and cover-up
  • To highlight the cheekbones and high points of the face, Sheika used her fingers to apply Lancôme Le Monochromatique in Magique, providing a buildable shimmer and instant glow
  • To add a natural flush, Sheika swiped Lancôme Blush Subtil in Blushing Tresor to Zendaya’s cheeks

 

EYES:

  • Sheika used the Lancôme Hypnôse 5-Color Eyeshadow Palette in Taupe Craze (Colors 1 & 2) to create a neutral wash of color and dimension on the lids and added Lancôme Le Crayon Khôl in Black Coffee to the lash line
  • We then used L’Absolu Rouge Intimatte in Beloved Berry on the eyes for that pop of color with Lancôme Juicy Tubes in Simmer on top for shimmer and sheen. We love using products in unexpected ways!
  • Finally, she applied Zendaya’s favorite Lancôme Lash Idôle Mascara and defined her brows with Lancôme Brow Shaping Powdery Pencil in Chocolate and Light Brown, locking it in with Lancôme Sourcils Brow Gel Styler in Clear

 

LIPS:

  • To finish, Sheika applied Lancôme L’Absolu Rouge Ruby Cream Lipstick in Vintage Ruby to the lips and topped them with Lancôme Juicy Tubes in Simmer for added shine
