Lily Collins’ most distinctive feature is her thick, natural eyebrows, but to achieve a natural and tidy look like hers, some techniques are needed. Aurélie first shapes Lily’s overall eyebrow shape, then uses a concealer slightly lighter than her skin tone to highlight the eyebrows’ contours, followed by a clear brow gel to set and enhance the hair flow.
The transparent gel texture is lightweight, effectively fixing the eyebrows with a polished effect, making the eyebrows look fuller without feeling stiff, and it is not easy to leave residue, making it very suitable for beginners to use.

When it comes to French women’s makeup, the key focus is definitely those iconic red lips! However, before applying lip makeup, of course, it is important to properly care for the lips. Lily Collins would first apply a lip mask and use lip balm to moisturize the lips, reducing the production of dead skin, making the subsequent lip makeup last longer. Finally, you can choose a highly saturated and vibrant lip color like true red to create a lip makeup full of French charm.
Infused with hyaluronic acid, collagen, honey extract, and vitamin E, this lip product deeply penetrates the lips, restoring softness, fullness, and shine.
