Best New Artist nominee Keri Hilson glowed on the red carpet last night at the 52nd Annual Grammy Awards in a stunning pale pink-hued Dolce & Gabbana number. However, we were more captivated by her gorgeous visage.

For this look, celebrity make-up artist Ashunta Sheriff was inspired by the screen sirens of the ‘50s and developed a look that emphasized Keri’s hazel eyes while injecting some panache and edge. Keri’s flawless complexion was enhanced by Smashbox Photo Finish primer with COVERGIRL Queen Collection Natural Hue Compact Foundation. The bronze glow was achieved by using COVERGIRL Queen Collection Natural Hue Minerals Bronzer in Light Bronze and Mary Kay Mineral Cheek Color in Strawberry Cream on the cheeks for the subtle flushed radiance.

As for those smoldering eyes, Ashunta chose a striking rich purple shade from Mary Kay Mineral Eye Color in Sweet Plum on the lids and lower lashes and COVERGIRL Smoky ShadowBlast in Purple Plume to intensify the colour. She later topped it off with COVERGIRL LashBlast Volume Mascara in Black and Ja’Maal Busters Lash Line for that wee bit of drama.

She also chose to break the smoky-eyes-nude-lips rule with Mary Kay Lip Liner in Berry along with Covergirl Queen Collection Lip Gloss in Pearled Peach which left Keri looking absolutely dazzling.  -Dyuti Mishra
