Vixen, Validated: How to Get Queen Latifah's 2011 People's Choice Awards Makeup Look

QUeen Latifah at the PCAsCoverGirl was another beauty brand who celebrated their anniversary recently - their 50th to be exact. To commemorate this special event, they hosted a red carpet bash in LA last night at the People's Choice Awards. To prove that every woman is a CoverGirl, all five spokeswomen - Queen Latifah, Ellen DeGeneres, Drew Barrymore, Dania Ramirez and Taylor Swift - came out to help celebrate. You can join the celebration too by checking out the CoverGirl Facebook fan page and sharing what makes you a CoverGirl to win some fantastic prizes.

Celebrity makeup artist D'Andre Michael created a look that accentuated her eyes and complemented her awards wardrobe which consisted of black, hot pink and turquoise:

face. I started by using COVERGIRL Queen Collection Natural Hue Compact Foundation in Golden Honey and set it with COVEGIRL Queen Collection Natural Hue Minerals Pressed Powder in Brown Bronze 1.

eyes. I started by applying COVERGIRL Smoky ShadowBlast in Onyx Smoke (black color) on eyelid and under the lower lash.  Doing this allows you to blend your darker shadows into a softer color.  I then used COVERGIRL Queen Collection 1-Kit Eyeshadow in Black Tie over the Onyx Smoke and blended it above the crease of the lid.  I did this to intensify the color and set the Smoky ShadowBlast. I lined the inner bottom eyelid for depth with COVERGIRL LiquiLineBlast in Black Fire.  To finish the eyes I applied 2 coats of COVERGIRL LashBlast Volume Waterproof Mascara in Very Black.

cheeks. I accentuated Queen’s cheeks with a light powder blush to add a hint of color and tone.  To complete Queen’s overall look I brushed COVERGIRL Queen Collection Natural Hue Bronzer in Brown Bronze for a soft and subtle glow.

lips. I offset the smokey eye with a lavender lip gloss. Try COVERGIRL ShineBlast in Dazzle. By doing lighter colored lips, this allows her eyes would stand out.
