With her piercing eyes, incredible poise and always pulled together look, Audrey Hepburn steals as many hearts today as she did during her Hollywood prime. Her simple yet undeniably chic makeup gave her a face to remember, and we love evoking her classic style with our own beauty routines. Audrey’s look was clean and polished. Her hair was coiffed perfectly to show off her iconic face. Her big inviting eyes were often accentuated with a sweep of black liner and big, yet soft, lashes. To recreate her look, use a liquid liner to create a thin cat-eye along your top lashes before applying several coats of mascara. Pull your hair off your face with a hairclip as chic as Ms. Hepburn herself, and finish the whole look off with a burst of berry color on your lips. And as Audrey said herself, “happy girls are the prettiest,” so show off your megawatt smile when channeling this beauty icon.

    You should specify the Nars lipstick should be “Funny Face,” named after one of her movies!
