Makeup Artist Leslie Lopez created the makeup for Sarah Jessica Parker for the 2012 Met Ball using CHANEL products.

I was inspired by Sarah Jessica’s dress – the dress always tells you what to do with the makeup! It reminded me of a party in Versailles, so I didn’t want to do anything too harsh…we wanted her to be fresh and beautiful – garden chic!

I started by prepping her skin with CHANEL Sublimage La Creme Texture Supreme and used it on her neck as well. Sarah Jessica’s skin looks gorgeous, so I used CHANEL Vitalumiere Aqua Ultra-Light Skin Perfecting Makeup SPF 15 in Beige 30 only in the places she really needed it and applied it very lightly, followed by my favorite product CHANEL Long Lasting Concealer in Beige Ivoire. I used a pink blush on her cheeks and then topped that off with Exclusive Creation Soleil Tan de Chanel Luminous Bronzing Powder in Sable Rose and applied that to the temples of her forehead.

For the eyes, I applied CHANEL Quadra Eyeshadow in Lilium. I used the minty green shade all over her eyes and then the dark shades in the crease and in the middle of the eye.

I finished the look by using CHANEL Rouge Coco Shine Sheer Lipshine in Chance, a fresh pinky shade and then I dabbed a bit of CHANEL Glossimer in Sirocco, a gorgeous beigy gold shade, in the middle of the lips for a soft pop.

Leslie Lopez did the makeup look for Sarah Jessica Parker that she wore to this years MET Ball.

Inspiration:
“Sarah Jessica’s look reminded me of Tippi Hedren from the movie “The Birds”. She was wearing a gold-grey metallic dress that had a 50’s glamour feel, but I didn’t want to focus on 50’s makeup. I wanted to make it modern and glamorous.”

How-To:
Leslie started the look with CHANEL Vitalumière Aqua Ultra-Light Skin Perfecting Makeup SPF 15 in Beige Rosé- Tendre and CHANEL Éclat Lumière Face Pen in Medium, and then finished off the cheek with CHANEL Powder Blush in Rose Dust.

For the eyes, Leslie used CHANEL Fluid Iridescent Eyeshadow in Torrent and lined the inside of the eyes with CHANEL Intense Eye Pencil in Noir. For the lips, she wanted a very pretty rose pink look and used CHANEL Rouge Coco Shine Hydrating Sheer Lipshine in Fétiche.
