WHO: SOLANGE KNOWLES
WHAT: MET Gala 2013
Makeup Artist: Benjamin Puckey for NARS Cosmetics to create the beauty look for Solange Knowles at the Metropolitan Museum’s Costume Institute Gala celebrating the unveiling of its newest exhibit, PUNK: Chaos to Couture.
Beauty Inspiration: “I really focused on a strong eye with punk influences for Solange’s look. The smoky eye gave an edge to the whole look, which is very much what she’s into right now – a smoky eye with lots of lash. We felt it complemented the dress so well because of the black and blue print and chose a nude lip to keep the focus on the eye.”
Key NARS products used: Ubangi Eye Paint (NEW for Fall 2013: Available September 1; for now try Dark Rite Soft Touch Shadow Pencil) Brumes Duo Eyeshadow, Het Loo Satin Lip Pencil
