Oh how I wish this movie was in color! At least I'd know what colors to suggest when doing the Sabrina makeup. I guess I'll have to go on my knowledge of Audrey, and a bit of knowledge about the time period. I have made a list of cosmetics to try, and given some instructions, so that you can reproduce the Sabrina makeup look.

Makeup List

-creme foundation to match your complexion (try Neutrogena's compact foundation, or Maybelline's 3-in-1 compact foundation)
-eye shadow (any powder shadow will do; try Wet 'n Wild or Kiss My Eyes)
-tranlucent powder (a good one to try is by New York Color; or try Clinique powder)
-mascara (go for a formula that will thicken the lashes)
-eye pencil (match the color of the pencil to the color of your brows)
-blush (use a powder formula; try Cover Girl or Jane cosmetics)
-lip liner (make sure it is complements your lips; New York Color and Tropez cosmetics offer a wide variety of colors)
-lipstick (try a long-wearing formula that stains the lips, like Revlon, Cover Girl, or Maybelline)
-lip gloss (try a potted formula, so that application can be more precise; try Wet 'n Wild or Jane)

-Smooth the creme foundation sparingly on the face, focusing on the under-eye area and blemishes.
-Apply two very thin layers of tranlucent powder, concentrating on getting rid of shine without getting pasty skin.
-Smudge eye shadow one shade darker than your skin onto the eyelid only (you can use your fingers).
-Fill in any sparse parts of your brow, then line the outer corner of your top lid, going thinner as you move inward (the line should start out thin, ending up nearly invisible.)
-Apply two coats of mascara, focusing on the outer eye.
-Brush a light layer of a soft pink blush onto the apple of the cheeks.
-Lightly line and fill in the lips with a liner two shades darker than your lips
-Apply a brownish-pink lip color; blot the color with a tissue, and repeat.
-Apply a light coat of lip gloss. Your objective is sheen, not shine.
