"She had a lovely princess look with all focus on her large doe like eyes," says Zembrod. "She sparkled in minimalistic shades of silver and pink, with attention to complexion in a dewy finish."

"She was golden skin perfected! Her make-up was the perfect study in highlights and lowlights to create a stunning, sun-kissed, chiseled look," says Zembrod. "By choosing to play up her amber skin to the fullest, she brought out her perfect features in the most delicate and pure way with spring flower colors of peach pink on the cheeks and lips, and delicate lilac on lids."
1. Start with dewy Mirabella Beauty Skin Tint Crème foundation, then dust skin all over with LowLight Powder. 2. Sweep Pure Bronze over cheek bones into the temples, along the jaw line and the tip of chin.
3. Dust Cheek Colour in Florencia (a shimmery, golden peach) over apples of cheeks up on to the crest of the cheek bone.
4. Apply a sheer layer of Eye Colour in Hydrangea (a vivid lilac) to lids, Stella (a sheer, shimmery cream) to brow bone and Cool 1 (a deeper brown) to contour.
4. Line lips with Lip Luster Liner and follow with Colour Sheer in Charmed.

"She chose a different and highly successful makeup look for Oscar," says Zembrod. "Instead of the heavy dark eyes and pale lips that we are used to seeing on Sandy, she chose a modern slant on 'old Hollywood glamour.' She pulled this off by her choice of modern color and application. Much attention was drawn to bone structure by the use of color, keeping her complexion flawless and delicately pale, and applying vibrant pink blush to the apples of her cheeks to accentuate her high cheek bones. The choice of bright clean pink-red lips played perfect contrast to her pale complexion. She kept her eyes, clean and pale with more of the attention being brought to the lash line with dark glamorous liner."
1. Start with Mirabella Beauty Skin Tint Crème foundation to perfectly match skin tone.
2. Use Pure Press powder in slightly deeper shade and sweep it over the perimeter of face, crest of forehead, cheek bone and jaw line.
3. Apply Illuminate powder over cheek bone and Cheek Colour in Palermo on the apples of the cheeks, covering Illuminate for an iridescent glow.
4. Keep eye lids clean with Eye Colour in Angelic (a very pale, iridescent lilac) and sweep brow bone with Decor shadow (a shimmery champagne).
5. Line lashes Eye Definer in Smoke and complete the eyes with multiple applications of black Lash Essential Mascara.
5. Finish the look with Colour Sheer in Posy for the lips.
