I think I’ve made it pretty clear that the cast of The Help can do no wrong in my eyes, but just in case I haven’t, let’s talk about how GORGEOUS Jessica Chastain looked last night. Jessica plays one of my favorite characters from the book, Miss Celia Foote, a completely backwoods nitwit with a heart of gold. I think we can all agree that she looked NOTHING like her character in the book last night, exuding elegance in her McQueen gown. Her skin was as glowy as the gown was, thanks to mark. makeup artist, Mai Quynh.

-Mai started with mark For Goodness Face Antioxidant Skin Moisturizing Lotion, followed by mark Primed for Perfection Face Primer all over Jessica’s skin.

-To create a flawless complexion, she used mark Min-A-Real Cream-To-Powder Foundation in Buff using the mark Foundation Brush, and touched up any imperfections with mark Good Riddance Hook Up Concealer in Fair/Light under her eyes and around her nose. (Those are really the only places most people need concealer, not all over the face).

-Next she used mark Just Pinched Instant Blush Tint in Peachy to the apples of Jessica’s cheeks. She followed this up with mark Matte-Nificent Oil-Absorbing Powder in Ivory/Nude to set the look, then layered mark Good Glowing Custom Pick Powder Blush in Cameo Glo on the tops of her cheeks.

-She used various gold and copper shades from mark On The Dot Netural Eye Color Compact to Jessica’s eyelids, from the lash line to her crease. She used the mark All Over Eye Shadow Brush to apply the color to the lids, and then the mark Flat Eyeliner Brush along the lower lash line.

-Next, she lined mark Keep it Going Longwear Eyeliner & Shadow in Entourage along her top lash line, winging it out at the outer corner for a cat eye effect. She finished off the eyes with two coats of mark Lash All You Want High-Volume Mascara in Black.
-Lastly, Mai applied mark Lipclick Full Color Lipstick in Bare Hug to Jessica’s lips to complete the look.
