Halle Berry looked feminine and monochromatic on the Oscar Red Carpet. Celebrity Makeup Artist Kara Yoshimoto Bua was inspired by the lightness and shimmer of Berry's gorgeous Marchesa nude crystal and tulle strapless gown, and interpreted that into her soft nude makeup look.
Beauty Breakdown OSCAR MAKEUP 2011: HALLE BERRY
We played up her eyes with warm browns instead of blacks, keeping them shimmery and soft edged while defining them by smoking them up and lining the inner eye.
I used Revlon Luxurious Smoky Eye Pencil in Brown Smoky, and Revlon Custom Eyes Mascara in Black.
I lined her lips with CHANEL Precision Lip Definer in Peche, a peach tone that has just enough brightness and definition, and applied CHANEL Glossimer in Petit Peche. Her base was a mixture of CHANEL Mat Lumiere Matte Fluid Makeup shades - Honey, Walnut and Chestnut.
To balance out the smoky eye but to still keep her look healthy and fresh, I used peaches that are soft enough yet with enough color. I applied CHANEL Joues Contraste Powder Blush in Horizon on her cheeks, a warm glowing peach.
