Get the Look: Lea Michele at the 2013 Golden Globes.

Lea Michele looked like a bronze goddess in her sparkly white "slit up to there" Elie Saab gown. Her makeup was created by Makeup Artist Melanie Inglessis for L'Oreal Paris.

Melanie purposefully created a ‘goddess’ beauty look that was beautiful and healthy to complement Lea’s white, lace gown

STEP-BY-STEP:

STEP 1: To create luminous, dewy skin, Melanie dampened a makeup sponge before applying Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation – she used a blend of two shades, #8 and # 6 ($59.00 each)

STEP 2: Melanie created a natural looking smoky eye by blending hues of champagne, baby pink and rich, warm chocolates. She used L’Oréal Paris Colour Riche Eye Quad in 103 Good Luck Charm ($7.95) and L’Oréal Paris Infallible 24-Hour Eyeshadow in Bottomless Java ($7.95). The Infallible shadow was smudged at the corners to create an effortless looking smoky eye.

STEP 3: Lea’s lashes were lengthened with L’Oréal Paris Shocking Extensions Mascara in Blackest Black ($9.95); one coat was applied to bottom lashes for definition

STEP 4: Melanie applied just a hint of L’Oréal Paris The Super Slim Liner by Infallible ($8.95) to create just a bit of definition near the lashes

STEP 5: For cheeks, Melanie blended two shades of L’Oréal Paris Visible Lift Blush - Pink Lift and Nude Lift – ($12.95) and applied to the apples of cheeks for a natural flush

STEP 6: Melanie swiped on NEW! Giorgio Armani Flash Lacquer Lip Gloss in 526 (available in March 2013) onto Lea’s lips to create the perfect pink pout

STEP 7: And for her overall glow, Melanie dusted YSL’s Terre Saharienne Bronzing Powder in Golden Sand ($50.00)

Lea Michele's hair was created by Dove Celebrity Stylist Mark Townsend for this years Golden Globe Awards.

“Lea's Marchesa gown inspired me to create a romantic and sexy French twist with lots of texture,” said Mark.
-          “I started by applying a large dollop of the Dove® Style+Care™ Nourishing Curls Whipped Cream Mousse to her damp hair. I scrunched the hair with my hands as I blew the hair dry, encouraging her natural waves.”
-          “Next I sprayed Dove® Style+Care™ Thermal Replenishment Spray on 2-inch sections of hair and then wrapped each section around a 1-inch curling iron.”
-          “When all of the hair was curled, I sprayed loads of Oribe Dry Texture Spray all over and then gathered the hair into a French twist and secured with Bobby pins. My new favorite trick with updo's is to spray my hair pins with Dove® Refresh+Care Invigorating Dry Shampoo before placing them in the hair, this creates a good kind of friction that keeps the pins from slipping.”
-          “I finished by spraying the Dove® Style+Care™ Strength & Shine Extra Hold Hairspray all over to keep her hair in place all night.”
