Bioré Twenty-year-old Shailene Woodley, star of ABC’s The Secret Life of the American Teenager, dazzled critics with her role as the eldest daughter in a troubled family in The Descendants, earning a Golden Globe nomination for Best Supporting Actress. She also dazzled everyone who caught a glimpse of her on the red carpet before the event. We got an exclusive look into the mind of Shailene’s makeup artist Gloria Noto, who told us how she worked with Shailene to produce her fresh, bright glow and how you can get the same look at home. How did you and Shailene decide on the makeup for the evening, and how did her dress and personality play a role? We decided on the look as a whole team.  Myself, hair, wardrobe, and of course, Shai, all had a fun meeting looking over makeup and hair looks in books and online.  Then, of course, Shai’s personality and what she likes are truly what decides.  Before anything else—dress, trends, etc.—I wanted Shai to feel like her beautiful self. Did Shailene have any special requests when you two were figuring out the makeup? Yes! Shai knows who she is, in and out, which I admire so much. She knows things about herself that she loves to emphasize, like her skin and eyes.  She always loves to have a subtle contour on her cheekbones but likes everything else to be clean. She also loves mascara.  She wanted to achieve a look that appeared to be easy and light, yet flawless for the red carpet.  She didn’t want to look too made-up, since her dress was such a huge statement. What products did you use to achieve the look? On her skin, I used Biore’s new Combination Skin Balancing Cleanser. I love it because it cleanses oily skin without stripping the drier areas. Then I added a natural moisturizer to prep her face for makeup.  Next, I used a tinted foundation that had a light, dewy finish. On the eyes I used the Chanel Mystic Eyes Eyeshadow Quad. This quad has neutral grey and pewter tones that gives a beautiful defused look. I buffed Chanel Rouge Coco lip color in Destinee on her lips to give a subtle plum stain, then applied the Chanel Rouge Coco Lip Baume on top.  I used the Rose Marie Swift cream highlighter on her cheekbones and her inner eyes to add a soft glow.  Black Chanel mascara was used on her top and bottom lashes.  A translucent powder was applied down the center of her face so she wouldn’t look overly dewy. Did you give Shailene any products to tuck away in her purse for touch-ups? The only thing I gave Shai was the Chanel Lip Baum to hydrate her pout, and a disposable mascara wand to brush her eyebrows right before she exited her car and stepped onto the red carpet.
