Team TME just got the backstage
beauty breakdown for this year's belle of the ball! Right from Celebrity Makeup
Artist Carissa Ferreri, the master behind the makeup for Best Actress nominee
Yalitza Aparicio, star of Roma and we're sharing it with you! This is an
exciting moment for Yalitza (and let’s face it, all of us) – She’s the first
Indigenous woman nominated for a Best Actress Academy Award. Her glam – a
peachy lip, soft light eye and glowy skin– definitely accentuates this power
moment!
Inspiration: My inspiration for
Yalitza’s look was spring. Her (Rodarte) dress is a beautiful mint color and I wanted to
do something fresh and soft with apricot and peach colors. ~ Carissa Ferreri
Skin: I do a lot of skin prep
before starting on the makeup as it’s essential to begin a beauty look with a
clean and smooth canvas. For Yalitza, I started with a mini facial using
Arbonne’s RE9 Advanced Smoothing Facial Cleanser and mixing it with the RE9 Advanced Prepwork Cleansing Polish to really exfoliate and leave the skin
looking fresh and bright.
Next, I used the RE9 Advanced Regenerating Toner to refresh the skin and add radiance. I love that it comes
in a spray bottle with a light mist so I sprayed it on my sponge and applied it
to her skin. Then I used the RE9 Advanced Intensive Renewal Serum, followed by
the RE9 Advanced Prepwork Hydrating Dew Cream to hold in moisture. The last
step was to add the RE9 Advanced Prepwork Gel Eye Masks to soothe and cool the
under eye.
Eyes and Brows: After skincare, I always move on to eyebrows
and eyes so the products have time to work and penetrate the skin (I left the
gel eye masks on the eyes throughout this process). I love a really fluffy and
sculpted eyebrow so I applied the Shape It Up Brow Pencil in Dark and added the
Eyebrow Gel to gives the brows more life.
For eyes, I wanted to do a very
springy fresh and peachy look. Almost like a monochromatic look, so everything
flowed nicely together. I used It’s All In The Eyes Volume 1 Palette and applied
the shades Carroway and Clove for the crease and diffused any harsh lines. For
the lids, I used It’s All In The Eyes Volume 2 Palette and applied the shades
Opal and Prism, which is a beautiful peach color with gold undertones. This
combination gave the exact peachy color I was looking for. I added a light
touch of the It’s A Fine Line Pencil Eye Liner in Carob to the bottom lash
line, leaving the top lash line bare.
Face and Body: For the face, I
started with the Makeup Primer and followed that with the Perfecting Liquid
Foundation in Golden Bronze. To mattify, I added the Got You Covered MineralPowder Foundation SPF 15 Sunscreen in Bronze which I applied to the center of
her face to remove any shine.
For concealer, I mixed The Real Conceal Liquid Concealer in the shades Tan and Dark to brighten the under eye.
For cheeks, I applied Blush in
the shades Blossom and Apricot to give a nice warm glow.
I applied Bronzer to the
perimeter of her face and forehead to add dimension. I also applied the Bronzer
to her cheekbones and brought it down to her shoulder to because it added such
a pretty glow.
Body, I used the Intelligence Nourishing Facial Oil on her neck, shoulders and arms which hydrated and
mattified the skin with a nice subtle glow.
Then I used the shade Moonstone
from the Starlight Glow Palette and I used the shades Stardust and Twilight on
her body, collar bone shoulders
Lips: I finished the look with a
peachy lip. I used the Smoothed Over Lipstick in the shades Lily and Zinnia
which left a lovely peachy finish.
Carissa used 100% clean,
high-performance vegan skincare and makeup from the botanically based,
cruelty-free beauty brand Arbonne!
