The Return of Brigitte Bardot



The Sixties sex kitten that was an inspiration to beauty queens worldwide has returned. Her smoky eyes and pastel pink lips shine back at us from the runways, and her lacy nightgowns are a bedtime must-have. Read on to get the look that got the men then and will charm them still now.


The Look of Brigitte Bardot


Pale out
Brigitte's skin was always powdery and light. Smooth entire face with moisturizing creme. Cover with a foundation a shade lighter than your own. Finish by dusting on a light loose face powder. Try- Estee Lauder Daywear Moisturizing Creme, Prescriptives Exactcolor foundation, and Lancome Powderlight Face Powder.

Smoke up
Her most classic trademark were her dark, mysterious eyes. Line yours with black or charcoal eyeliner, from the outside in. Cover lids to the browbone (lighter as you go up) with a smoky gray eyeshadow. Triple up on the mascara effect by using a thickening formula. Be sure to curl lashes first. Try- Chanel Black Eyes Eyeliner, Hard Candy Eyeshadow Quad in Gunmetal, Elizabeth Arden Ultra-Thick thickening mascara.

Think Pink
Brigitte was never seen without her classic frosty pastel-pink lips, covered with a thick layer of clear gloss. Start by filling in lips with a light pink matte lipstick. Cover it with a frosty pink lip formula. Finish off with a coat of gloss for sheer perfection.
