Models & Makeup - Cara Delevingne

Makeup & Hair Inspiration
Cara Delevingne



It's always fascinating to see how models are transformed from one fashion show to the next with the help of makeup artists and hairstyle hotshots. Cara Delevingne is one such model, who can effortlessly go from a smokey eye to a fresh face without batting an eyelid (mind the pun) - looking stunning on each occasion. And she has the eye brows everyone adores. 
Here are some hair and makeup ideas from the world's most sought after supermodel.


Retro
Cara wears a 50's style head bow with orange shaded lids and a wide-swept fringe at Louis Vuitton. She is 70's chic at Pucci, with a shaggy hairdo and kohl rimmed eyes. Moschino brings out the best of the 60's with a voluminous coif, icy-white lined inner rims and bold, separated lashes, along with a popsicle red lipstick. At Marc Jacobs, the sixties theme is reignited, with a side-swept beehive, smudged eyes and nude lips, with an emphasis on her famous brows.


Eye Candy
Brightly shaded lids are all the rage, as seen on the SS13 runways. The styling at Jeremy Scott was punk rock with green painted lids and an unruly dark cropped hairdo. At Fendi, yellow and blue collide in a tribal themed eye. The makeup artists at Topshop, Just Cavalli & Chanel Resort 2014 were inspired by blue eye shadow, making it a profound feature. Opulent gold leaf lined the inner rims of Cara's eyes at Marchesa. She showed off metallic silver lids at Chanel Spring 2013, and purple smoked eyes at Jason Wu. A nude lip makes this trend pop.


Au Naturel 
Barely there makeup displays the youthful side to Cara's beauty. To recreate her flawless, fresh faced look, first start with a makeup primer. Then lightly mix a few drops of your moisturizer with your liquid foundation to create a more natural and less cakey finish. Use a concealer to hide any imperfections. Dust with translucent powder to set your base. Try a beige eye shadow on your lids and if you like using a liner, try brown instead. Circle an illuminator or bronzer onto the apples of your cheeks and gloss with a clear lip glass. Voila!


Lip Service
Bright, bold and bubblelicious lip shades are an instant makeup pick-me-up. At Diane von Furstenburg, Cara wears a deep fuchsia matt lipstick, with blown out locks. A striking shade of cherry red is seen at Jason Wu SS13. Cara is volumized with a curly coif at Marc by Marc Jacobs, in a rich red lip and little other makeup. Fendi goes dark punk for FW13 with a violet toned lip colour. Cara is pretty in a cerise pink glossy pout at Issa, with a lovely floral decked high twisted bun. Neons are not for everyone, but this hot pink hue at Giles is radiant on Cara.


Dark Optics


Coal-black dusky lids beautifully highlight Cara's blue eyes. The ideal version of a 'smokey eye' is perfectly portrayed at DSquared and Michael Kors, while Lanvin takes it one step further. Cara wears an extreme smeared and smokey look at Chanel Couture, which is only okay if you're on the runway. Do not try this at home folks, unless you're in a goth band. What you can try, is the glamourous cat-eye as seen at Anna Sui and Dolce & Gabbana. If you have an unsteady hand, just line your upper and lower rims with a black pencil, or in the case of Rag & Bone, you can completely miss the mark and draw outside the lines. Not really.


With the wave of a makeup brush, Cara Delevingne impressively conveys any type of look, from an after-dark party princess, a classic beauty, retro chick and modern colour maiden.

Which of Cara's beauty looks is your favourite? Would you try it out?

Hello Sam!
I don't have a favourite when it comes to Cara, I love it all!
She is just more than any other girl, can pull off any look!
I will love to have her eyebrows!!

miss b said...

This just shows how talented the hair stylists and make-up artists must be to transform someone so dramatically. Even somehting as simple as lip colour has an amazing effect. I actually like the Au Naturel look here!

I'm intrigued by Cara, but don't get her appeal. She is pretty versatile, but more striking than pretty to me. She does have lovely eyes!

First of all, thank you sooo much for all your amazing words towards me...it's nice to know about me :), cause I don't see me that way! In fact, I carry a huge guilt feeling always, so, I tend to see me really low :) it should be better - but it's not, so I have to keep on working on that!
Now, Cara, the first time I saw her, as other people too, was as an Asos model and now she is biiiig all pver the world! I liked the Retro look very much!

EVERYTHING looks amazing on her! It is crazy!

I love those make ups, where her eye brows are left natural. :) Otherwise they look ..little bit like big moustaches over eyes.
Gorgeous woman.

she is so damn stunning! although I like all the makeup looks I personally think she looks best with minimal makeup. her features are just that striking that they look best by themselves!

Cara has a beautiful face. She wears makeup so well, and I'm not just saying that because she's pretty or a model. I truly think she is an MUA's dream.

Elly @ Caribbean Living said...

Wow, you're so right!! I can't believe these are all the same person, it's crazy what a difference make up and hair styling can make. My faves are for sure the au naturel looks - kinda boring I know but I hate a lot of make up on people, think you should let natural beauty shine through. Fab post Sam!

Unknown said...

I'm really not a fan of her... I dunno why !

Unknown said...

Wow it is amazing how much of a chameleon she is - her makeup really does completely change her look - where I myself look pretty much the same in every look! Lol. But though I do love the dramatic 60's look with the white inner eye and the red lips, I really don't care for the Fendi violet lip/simple eye look on her - it reminds me of the 90s and I just dont find it flattering- even on a beauty like her. I do love the natural look and your tutorial really simplifies the process of achieving it! Thanks for that!

So cool. She is so pretty :)

Sue Westrell said...

She's definitely able to work quite the variety of looks! I think my favorites are the ones with very bold lips or very dark eyes, since that's what I tend to be visually attracted to, despite my own very lazy preference for going sans makeup. I do like some of the bright eye looks as well, they're rather pretty!

(Also I'm probably not going to get to responding to your e-mail until tomorrow... I'm too tired to finish everything I need to do tonight).
