Get the Look: Felicity Jones’ Gradient Smoky Eye

A smoky eye has the ability to transform any look, whether it’s casual or fancy. Take, for example, Felicity Jones’ look for the premiere of The Theory of Everything. Makeup artist Sabrina Bedrani chose a dark smoky eye to add an edge to the star’s feminine lace ensemble. “Felicity is wearing a black gown with the top and bottom in lace, so we wanted to create a look that was more edgy with a strong smoky eye – not too romantic as to contrast the lace,” she said. The final look, complete with perfectly glowy skin, was a nice balance between girly-girl and rockstar. Here, Bedrani gives us a breakdown of the look.

    Serum

    “I started by applying the Orlane Absolute Skin Recovery Care Anti-Fatigue Serum to her skin,” said Bedrani. “This serum was perfect for today because we’ve been doing press for four days and with having makeup on and off, on and off, the skin can get a little dull. Right after applying this serum, I felt the skin plumping up and the makeup went on so much smoother.”

    Eyeshadow

    “Then, I took Moiré from Votre Vu Palette Play in Violette and applied that on the outer corner of the eye and blended it inward so less color would be towards the inner corner to create that gorgeous gradient effect.”

    Eyeshadow

    Taking Black from Antonym Eyeshadow Quattro in Croisette, I concentrated on the outer corner and blended inward again, stopping just shy of the purple shade,” said Bedrani. “Then, taking a clean brush I blended the crease out so there was no harsh lines.”

    Face

    “After cleaning up any fallout from shadow under her eyes, I applied Orlane Vitality Radiance Care Eye Contour to hydrate the under eye area,” she said. “I used a Dior foundation to even out the skin tone and went back with Orlane Highlight Care Brush under the eyes to clean it up a bit and highlighted a little where needed, like around the nose. To apply the Highlight Care Brush, I dabbed the product from the applicator onto the back of my hand to remove any excess and then applied directly to her skin, going back to pick up product from my hand as needed.”

    “Since the eyes were the main focus of the look, we kept her lips natural. I first moisturized her lips with Orlane Extreme Line-Reducing Lip Care for the base and then applied the lipstick on top.”
