Lupita Nyong'o at Cannes Film Festival 2015 - Bellanaija - May2015005

It was day 1 of the 68th Cannes Film Festival yesterday, Wednesday 13th May 2015, and the red carpet was filled with entertainment royalty from Lupita Nyong’o in Gucci to Julianne Moore in Armani Prive. See the fab ladies and let us know who was your best dressed female of the day here.

One of our best dressed of the evening was the lovely Lupita who rocked a dazzling green dress by Gucci with embroidered crystals and pink and blush silk flowers. Even though we loved her dress; we fell even more in love with her beauty which had a pop of colour and a ballerina bun.

Lupita has quickly grown to be one of the favourites when it comes to beauty on the red carpet, so we are here to dish on her pretty face created by Nick Barose of Lancome and natural hair.

Hair
Lupita’s poised hairstyle was parked in a high ballerina bun coupled with kinky hair extensions that created the bun. The hairstyle was regal and added to her poised look.

Makeup
For her stellar look, makeup artist Nick Barose gave Lupita dramatic, full brows, elegantly-lined eyes and a bold fuchsia lip for a pop of colour that flowed effortlessly with her dress.

For her face he used the Lancome Advanced Génifique Youth Activating Concentrate, the La Base Pro Pore Eraser to give her a seamless matte look, the Translucence Mattifying Silky Pressed Powder in 550 Suede for her dark skin and gave her face a rosy finish with the Blush Subtil in Plum Noir.

Her bold brows were achieved by using the Lancome Sourcils Tint Longwear Eyebrow Pen in Noir, and her upper eyelids were lined with the Le Stylo Waterproof Eyeliner in Noir Intense and completed with the Grandiôse Mascara in Noir Mirifique.

Her bold lips brought all the fun in bold colour. Nick used the Color Design Lipcolor in Hit List for the pop, the Lancome NEW Shine Lover Lipstick in Palpitante and finished off with the Le Crayon Lip Contour in Plum.
