MAKEUP KIRSTEN DUNST AT THE 2011 MET BALL
Pati was inspired by Kirsten's beautiful Chanel dress. The sparkling sequins and mineral stones sewn into the bodice were brilliant and fun—she wanted these natural gems to be reflected in her makeup.
Patri prepped the skin with Instant Smooth Line Correcting Concentrate to fill in any imperfections and help hold foundation. Next, she used a light amount of Skin Illusion Foundation to even the skin without creating a mask. For the blush, she generously applied Blush Prodige in Miami Pink from the apples of the cheeks swept up toward the hairline for a healthy, romantic feel.
Pati played with the Clarins NeoPastels Eye Palette, and created a gorgeous, jeweled eye for Kirsten. She sculpted the bones of her eye with the dusty rose colour, and on the center of the lids used the taupey opal. Finally, she washed the whole eye with the bluish lavender shade - just like an opal stone! One minimal coat of Wonder Perfect Mascara was all that was needed to finish the eyes.
Pati applied Rouge Prodige in Lilac Pink, a soft violet rose, to complete the look.
