The Power of Transformation: Elle Fanning's Makeup Magic
Get ready to be dazzled by the incredible impact of makeup! Elle Fanning, the epitome of glow and grace, recently stole the show at the BFI London Film Festival with a makeup look that transported us back to the swinging sixties. Her appearance was nothing short of mesmerizing, and we're here to break down the secrets behind this stunning transformation.
Fanning's blonde hair was styled into a messy bun, a chic and effortless choice that allowed her makeup to take center stage. The decision to go without earrings was a masterstroke, ensuring all eyes were on her radiant face. Wendy Rowe, Fanning's makeup artist, created a look that was both smoky and subtle, with a hint of cherry-stained lips and a generous dose of blush. The addition of bronzer and highlighter completed the diamond-like glow.
While Rowe didn't disclose the exact products used, her Instagram provides a glimpse into this mesmerizing look (https://www.instagram.com/p/DPwK6A3COgO/?img_index=1). We can't help but notice the extra lower lashes, adding an extra layer of intrigue.
But here's where it gets controversial... Fanning's delicate features present a unique challenge. Rowe's skill is evident in achieving a balanced look, avoiding the risk of appearing clownish. The over-lining of lips and emphasis on eyebrows are subtle yet effective, a testament to the artist's precision.
And this is the part most people miss: Fanning's bone structure demands a delicate approach. Either light makeup or an avant-garde style is the norm, but Rowe's bombshell creation is a masterpiece. It's a bold move that showcases the transformative power of makeup.
Fanning's outfit was equally impressive, featuring a fresh-off-the-runway ensemble by Simone Rocha. A black sequined gown with pockets and pants (yes, Elle loves her pants!) were paired with Manolo Blahnik shoes. She accessorized with Cartier jewels, including a dazzling diamond watch with a black strap, and completed the look with glossy black nails.
