I just loved this sultry eye makeup look with a warm/rosy glow from Violet Grey’s step-by-step guide to master actress Carmen Ejogo’s tousled hair and alluring stare and thought I’d share. I think I can master the eyes, but I’m not sure I can achieve the same warm blushed look since my skin is so much lighter, but I’m going to try.

Being photographed in lingerie requires a very specific beauty look: Soft, imperfect, and utterly sensual. When hairstylist Peter Butler and makeup artist Jillian Dempsey took note of the wardrobe selection for the first shot in VIOLET GREY’s cover shoot with actress Carmen Ejogo, they followed in kind by crafting touchable hair and enticing makeup in response. The result? Curled-then-rumpled locks and a smudged, kohl-rimmed eye that is as sexy as it is wearable, out of the bedroom, too. Their step-by-step guide to get the look at home, below.
