The Academy Awards had some fantastic looks; dramatic bold lips, soft romantic eyes, and glowing soft skin. One of my absolute favorites for the night was Olivia Munn's glowing, soft tangerine look. The whole look is so effortless. Her look really focuses on:
- Soft, luminous glowing skin, light foundation
- Orange/tangerine tones on the cheek and lips
-Simple, diffused eye makeup with soft browns and bold lashes
-Groomed, "imperfect" brows that aren't overly done
I love the "lightness" of the whole look, from the foundation to the soft eye makeup. This is such an easy look to re-create, I knew I had to play around!
