Fresh-faced and talented, our favourite beauty chameleon Emma Watson is versatility personified.Having started out as a straight-A witch in the Harry Potter franchise, the 22-year old has metamorphosed into a mature Hollywood star who's learnt every trick of the trade behind the scenes in hair and makeup.
Running from one red carpet event to another, Emma is an expert at styling herself to suit the part – transforming her style from sweet and sassy to super-sophisticated with little tweaks of makeup magic. And, when she's not around the Ivy-league campus of Brown, The Perks of Being a Wallflower actress is busy being Lancome's beautiful muse.
In Love is the name of Emma's latest campaign for the French fashion house's spring/summer 2013 collection. Appropriately named for Valentine's day this year, Lancome's new line features a vibrant mix of spring-inspired pastels and bold fuchsia for the perfect date-night look.
Here's how to get Emma's girl-next-door look in three ways:Sweet as sugarEmma showed that she was the People's Choice as she beamed at the crowd and cameras with on-trend hot pink lips during this January's Awards. With defined eye-makeup that came off prominent and strong in photos, the 22-year-old actress lined her upper lids and waterline with a carbon black whilst adding a touch of creamy sheen shadow below the bottom lashes for an eye-catching effect. A flush of blush is at the heart of any Valentine's date look, and Emma looked simply radiant with a dusting of rose pink powder on the apples of her cheeks.
Sassy and suaveWith her short chop smartly slicked-back, Emma exuded confidence at the premiere of her newest movie. Seen glowing in dreamy dewy skin, you too can replicate the look with a fuss-free application of a radiance boosting base. Jouer's Luminizing Moisture Tint is a cult product that's sure to do the trick. Easily applied with fingers, it's sheer coverage includes iridescent particles to bring a healthy glow to your face whilst providing SPF20 to protect your skin throughout the day.An expensive brow gel isn't an investment; it's essentially just hair gel in a tube. So be wise with your wands as any drug-store clear mascara will do the trick. Give your eyebrows a simple swipe in an upwardly direction for face-framing definition and add a pop of colour to the fresh look with a bold coral lip like Emma. Super-chic and SophisticatedThis final look is all about achieving a flawless, velvet finish to the skin with a personalised foundation colour to blend into your natural colour tone. Lancome's Teint Miracle wide colour chart has a shade to suit any girl and will leave a finish that is your skin, only better.
Add structure where there is none with a spot of sculpting using a light, matte bronzer a couple shades darker than your foundation. Fill in brows lightly with powder and take up that creamy pot of champagne coloured eyeshadow again before layering on lashings of eye-widening mascara. A soft nude lip is all that's needed to complete this neat and chic look.
