How-to: AnnaSophia Robb’s picture perfect make-up

Normally I’m not one to suffer from a serious case of girl envy. I’m secure enough in my own make-up skills to know that I can rock a bold lip and that my winged liner skills are slightly above those of amateur status. But when I clapped eyes on this photo of AnnaSophia Robb… well, my blush brush began to wobble in my hand.

She’s got the kind of picture-perfect skin that makes her seem airbrushed. Yet her make-up doesn’t look ‘cakey.’ Her lashes are thick and voluminous without seeming heavy, and her lips are brilliantly bold without being too ‘in your face’. It’s truly mind-boggling stuff.

I made it my beauty duty to find a team of products that could provide me with a result that was as flawless and stunning as AnnaSophia’s – because I just
can’t have her showing me up again. Here’s what I came up with…

TOP FIND FOR YOUR BASE: Benefit The Porefessional

I’ve tried foundation after foundation, and no matter how good they seem, they just don’t sit as flawlessly on my skin as they seem to on AnnaSophia’s. I soon discovered that it was all about what I put underneath my foundation that made the difference. Benefit The POREfessional is a primer that works to minimise the appearance of your pores. The best bit is, it’s lightweight, oil-free and applies smoothly to your skin. Simply apply your favourite foundation over the top to see the difference.

TOP FIND FOR YOUR CHEEKS: Physicians Formula Cashmere Wear Ultra Smoothing Bronzer

This multi-toned bronzer delivers just the right amount of warm colour and shimmer to your cheekbones. This means that by swiping it just underneath your cheekbones, they’re subtly highlighted and ‘lifted’ without leaving a heavy, noticeable bronze streak on your cheeks. The colour also applies smoothly to your skin and lasts throughout the day, too.

TOP FIND FOR YOUR EYES: Benefit It’s Potent Eye Cream

I was never one to consider my skincare regime when thinking about my make-up look, but the two really do go hand-in-hand. This silky smooth illuminating eye cream works to brighten your eye area while hydrating the fragile skin around your eyes. The peptide complex included in the formula helps to restore elasticity and firmness to your skin while loquat extract helps to protect from free radical damage and premature ageing. See? Now you can treat your eyes and improve your make-up look, too.

TOP FIND FOR YOUR LIDS: Designer Brands Absolute Precision Liquid Eye Liner

Want a minxy winged liner like AnnaSophia? Don’t even consider using a pencil liner, for a wing that sharp – you need a pen with a particular pointy tip. This precision pen from Designer Brands provides bold, fluid colour and is perfect for creating a super pointy wing that makes a statement. It’s also smudge-proof, so you don’t need to worry about it rubbing away throughout the night.

TOP FIND FOR YOUR LASHES: Benefit They’re Real Mascara

Some mascaras come and go, but they say when you find the perfect one for you, you’ll never stray. This lash-lengthening mascara works to volumise and curl your lashes – and keep them like that all day! Yep, this out-of-this-world mascara manages to remain smudge and flake-proof all day long, while keeping your peepers looking striking and your lashes looking strong and healthy, too. Who needs falsies, anyway?

TOP FIND FOR YOUR LIPS: L’Oreal Paris Colour Riche Nutri Shine in Strawberry Juice

Lips that look as luscious as AnnaSophia’s can’t be created with any old lipstick, oh no. To achieve this deliciously dewy pop of colour you need something that’s going to nourish your lips as well as colour them. This L’Oreal lippy works to effectively nourish your kissers like a lip balm thanks to the inclusion of royal jelly, which allows the colour to melt onto your lips and also provides supreme shine – without any sticky residue.

Which part AnnaSophia’s look do you like best? What is your top trick for a flawless make-up look?
