The all-singing and all-dancing mini mogul, Selena Gomez (and former flame of bad boy Justin Bieber) was spotted on the red carpet this week at the premiere of Behaving Badly and her sultry look got us thinking about perfect hair and makeup combos.
A slick, poker-straight ponytail, smoky eye, and nude, glossy lips are an all-time brilliant beauty look that is designed to turn heads.
This dramatic look is perfect for olive skin tones with dark features and it really makes a focal point of the eyes. Here, the well-groomed brows help to anchor the look and the intense charcoal eyeshadow gradually fades to a subtle metallic pink that is swept right up to Gomez’ brows. Extending the eyeshadow outwards makes her round face shape appear more angular, while the dabbing of highlighter across her cheekbones gives her complexion a pretty dewiness that serves to keep this look soft and fresh.
Of late, we have seen the starlet up the beauty ante considerably and perhaps her new BFF Cara Delevingne is the cause behind the shift. In any case, we applaud her for propelling her beauty up a notch.
