Makeup From The Twilight Saga Movies 2

The makeup in The Twilight Saga movies aren't really makeup focused. Sure the vampires are coated in white face paint, but it's not something that everyone is going on about! I wanted to know some of the products used in the movie to create the few looks Stewart wears when playing Bella. 

In the picture above you can see 8 products that were used on human and vampire Bella to create her makeup looks. 

1) MAC Blot Powder | £20 | link

MAC Blot Powder in a movie makeup artist favourite. Not only was it used on Stewart but the entire cast has this used on them. It absorbs excess oil creating a more matte effect on the skin making it just that bit more camera ready. 

2) Anastasia Brow Duo in Brunette | £17 | link

To ensure that Bella's, both human and vampire, brows were nice and defined the makeup artists on the set used the ever so famous Anastasia brow duo in Brunette. The powder creates a more subtle effect while leaving the brows defined and framing the face. 

3) Fresh Sugar Rose Tinted Lip Balm | £31.75 | link

This was used to on the lips for the stunning wedding look Stewart, as Bella, wore. It gives a nice tint of colour on the lips while offering a nice balm effect at the same time. 

4) MAC Eyeshadows in Blanc Type, Flute and Wedge | £12 | link

These neutral shadows were used in a variety of looks in the movies to create natural looks on Stewart. The great texture of MAC shadows means they are blendable and nicely pigmented. They last for ages and rarely crease. 

5) Stila Custom Colour Blush in Pink  | £13 | link

This was another product used in the stunning wedding look. It's a nice pink blush, strangely enough that can be used subtly or built up on the skin for something more dramatic. 

6) Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua | £32 | link

Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua foundation was used on vampire Bella to create a flawless base for the rest of the makeup. You can read my review of this fabulous foundation here!

7) Laura Mercier Foundation Primer | £28 | link

For most actors who wore makeup the Laura Mercier foundation primer was used to prep the skin. The luxurious primer smooths the skin while prepping it for makeup. It pro-longs the wear of face makeup creating a great base for other things. I have a review of this beaut coming soon.

8) Dior Show Iconic Mascara | £23 | link

Stewart wore this mascara as Bella Swan in the movies, but it really came into it's own when she was a vampire. The amp'ed up lashes of the vampires allowed the mascara to really show what it can do, even with the false lashes on the top.

The official movie posters. Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse, Breaking Dawn Part 1 & Breaking Dawn Part 2

From my constant tweets about my excitement for the final Twilight film you can probably all tell that I’m a Twilight fan. It’s quite sad to think about but I really grew up on these movies and books and it’s quite sad to see it all come to an end. It feels like the right time though because I feel old enough to let it go. I know it’s quite sad to think about a film/book series like that but I’m sure everyone has that one thing they grew up with and this was mine. 

 I have a review of the film coming up but I don’t want to post it to soon because it will include spoilers so I’m going to wait a week or so until I publish it. So, I’m going to do a little fashion post on the stars. I think I’m going to split it up into three of four posts because I don’t want this to be horribly long. Part one is going to focus on the main girl herself, Kristen Stewart. I’ve picked some of my favorite looks alongside those more questionable ones she’s pulled out the bag since 2008. 

 I'm no expert when it comes to fashion and I generally go with what I feel comfortable in and I like clothes on other people when they look more comfortable which I why I love some of these looks.

My favourites can be seen here and she wears Prabal Gurung on the Breaking Dawn Press Tour, Versace for an Eclipse Photo Call, Julien Macdonald for a Breaking Dawn P2 photo call, Yigal Azrouël at the MTV movie awards in 2009 and
Balmain at the 2011 MTV Movie Awards. 

I always think Kristen looks better in a shorter dress rather than those floor length gowns and lets face it shes got the legs that you can show off to the world. Sometimes I think she could do with a little tan slapped on them because she is very very pale but with the right colours in the dress that pale works. 

My absolute favorite off them all above would be the red and black dress and chucks. I think it really reflects here own style rather than what she's been told to wear. The red pin dress is a close runner up though because she pulls it off when others would have look just a tad stupid. I think these dresses make her look her age as well which is brilliant. I think the Julien Macdonald dress is really sophisticated and really flatters here "boyish figure". It gives her a goregous shape and hits the leg in a nice place. Kristen has always been a master of the LBD and I think the first two looks in this picture are the best she's worn. The black contrasts nicely with her pale skin and I adore the higher neck lines.

Sorry, but what were you thinking? You can see Kristen in Elie Saab at the LA Eclipse Premiere, Oscar De La Renta at the New Moon Premiere, Proenza Schouler at a New Moon premiere, J Mendel at a New Moon Photo Call and Zuhair Murad at the Breaking Dawn Part 2 Premiere.

I've seen so many reviews of these outifts and they are all mixed but I'm just not a fan of any of them. I think some would look better on other people so it's not the dress I hate it's just that they don't suit Kristen. 

The Elie Saab dress at the Eclipse premiere is just to white and I don't like the shape. The shape doesn't so her any favours, and I think it might have been a bit better had the single sleeve been shorter or just a strap. The colour washes her out like the J Mendel dress at the New Moon Photo Call event in Paris.

The New Moon Permiere look is just a big no no for me. I don't think Kristen looks her best in 'gowns' so that works against her and the hair is just not something that goes with it at all. The Proenza Schouler dress from a New Moon event just makes me think "WHAT?!?" It's a very bizzare outfit for a premiere and it just doesn't work for me.
