"A woman's beauty should be seen in her eyes, it's the door to her heart, the place where love lives."- Audrey Hepburn
Eyes: You can recreate this mod look with liquid eyeliner, an eyebrow gel, and false eyelashes.
Here's how in 3 easy steps:
1) Use an eyebrow gel or comb and brush your eyebrows up. I love Anastasia eyebrow gel (tinted or clear) which is at Sephora.
2) Line the creases of your eyes with a liquid eyeliner. I recommend Magic Ink Jet Black Liquid Eyeliner from Benefit. Wing out the ends of your line with scotch tape for a precise angle.
3) Load on lots of mascara on your top and bottom lashes or use false eyelashes. Get both with M.A.C's False Lashes Mascara in black.
Aside from the dramatic boldness of the eyes, her best accessory was her fierce red lipstick. This lip color is timeless and one of the best makeup secrets that don't require much effort. My favorite red lipstick is by Tom Ford called Cherry Lush. Available at Neiman Marcus.
A Tight Bun: My Audrey Hepburn inspired bun was created at Aura Salon and Style Lounge in Great Neck, NY. It was shaped using a "donut"- I got hungry too. Here is a video I found really helpful to create your Audrey bun at home. Your main product is a sock so make sure it's clean!
Fashion: The little black dress is an essential for every party thanks to this style icon. I am rocking a black jumpsuit as my go-to from day into night.
