Steal celebrity looks for your big day with our step-by-step guides from top make-up artists
Copy Scarlett Johansson's classic Hollywood glamour look with these simple steps from celebrity and bridal make-up artist Helen Kalli.
1. Prep the skin with Rodial's Glamtox Day, £75. This is a wonder product that hydrates and plumps the skin, it really gives you the perfect foundation for picture perfect makeup!
2. Apply Face Atelier's Ultra Foundation, £32, with a brush to give you a light even skintone, this product is a makeup artists best kept secret, it gives you an amazing finish and has a built in primer.
3. I love Laura Mercier for concealers, £18.50. They are high in pigment which means you need a very small amount, that gives you the coverage you need without any tell-tale signs! Once you've completed your flawless skin, set your base with Laura Mercier translucent powder, £29. This powder is ultra-fine, it will keep make-up in place and matify where needed.
4. Apply Clinique's 8-Hour Eye Colour, £17, in Bit O' Honey all over the lid. Add some extra in the inner corner of the eye to brighten, then take Clinique's Chocolate Chip eye colour, £15, and place at the outer corners of the eye, use a small brush and gently blend in towards the centre of the eye, creating a soft smokey lid. Use the same colour on the lower lashes.
5. Ligne Blackstar byTerry, £25, will give you the perfect sultry eyeliner.
6. Time to add lashings of mascara! My fave is Kevyn Aucoin's Curling Mascara, £20.
7. For definition on the brows try using the Brow Powder Duo, £20.50, from Laura Mercier. Using a brush you can define your brows more or less depending on the look you are going for, brows are key in ultra-red carpet glamour!
8. For A-list cheeks, use Nars Blush in Torrid, £21, to contour the face.
9. Rouge Terrybly lipstick from ByTerry in Fantastic Red, £31, is super sexy and glam to finish off this stunning look.
