For a light, natural-looking flush, Dempsey dabbed and blended Kevyn Aucoin’s The Creamy Glow Blush in Tresbelle onto Ejogo’s cheeks. To add definition Dempsey dusted Kevyn Aucoin The Sculpting Powder under the actress’ cheekbones, along her hairline, and under her jawline.

The trick to Ejogo’s sultry, smudgy eye? Dempsey used a heavy hand and Kohl Eyeliner in Jet Black from her namesake collection along Ejogo’s top lashline, using a classic shadow brush to immediately blend the color up and over the lid (don’t let it set), creating a sultry wash of smudged pigment. She then traced the pencil along the bottom lashline, quickly smudging it with a smaller, stiff brush. A sheer wash of the silvery hue from Giorgio Armani Eyes to Kill Eyeshadow in 2 Tierra Sienna over the actresses lid gave he lids a subtle, metallic sheen. (Violet says: arm yourself with Utowa’s Regular Eye Shadow Brush 10 and Pointed Eyeshadow brush 7P to accomplish this look.)

A coat of Charlotte Tilbury’s Legnedary Lashes Instant Hollywood False-Lash Effect Mascara defined the top and bottom lashes, then Dempsey applied individual false lashes throughout the top lashline to add fullness. Dip each lash into Duo’s Eyelash Adhesive with a pair of tweezers,wait for 5 to 10 seconds to allow the glue to become slightly tacky, then press into the lashline.

The focus of this look should be on the eyes, so keep the lips very minimal, Dempsey says. For Ejogo, this called for a mixture of hues from M.A.C. Pro Lip Palette in Preferred Pinks lightly dabbed onto her pout.
