5 Makeup Tips We Picked Up From Actor Millie Bobby Brown
Written by Nishtha BhallaSep 17, 2021
We've watched her transform from the gruff, super-power possessing tomboy Eleven in Stranger Things, to the cottagecore-heavy detective in Enola Holmes. At only 17, Millie Bobby Brown is considered a beauty icon and has some pretty solid makeup tips that we're sure she picked up along the way. From flaunting a striking '70s inspired makeup look to rocking bare-faced glam, the actor's got a look for every mood, and you know we're here taking notes. Ahead, we're listing down all the makeup tips we've picked up from actor
Millie Bobby Brown — feel free to bookmark these for your next event!
Reminiscent of '70s go-to makeup and perfectly in-line with 2021's Y2K makeup trend, this is a wild look that we just can't get enough of — and serves as a reminder that makeup is all about having fun. We love the fact that Millie isn't afraid of making a statement as she pairs sparkly blue eyeshadow with an orange lip.
Not everyone can pull off monochrome, but if we had one takeaway from the Stranger Things star's monochrome look, it would be that different hues and tones are everything. While the overall look is pink, she's mixed and matched different hues to make a fun statement. Note the rose pink eyeshadow, paired with a punch-coloured lip and brick pink cheeks. Love it!
If you've wanted to step up your eyeshadow game for a while, look no further. Pairing a matte eyeshadow with a contrasting eyeliner in a lighter shade, Millie's look is a playful foray into the world of eye makeup. She's kept her base matte and paired the entire look with mauve lips and bushy brows.
At only 17, perhaps one of the most important makeup tips Millie Bobby Brown has given us would have to be — whenever you can go for a no-makeup makeup look. Keeping the lids bare and the lips balm-ed, she's made a statement even by just using a little bit of contour and some blinding highlight.
Who said you have to follow the traditional rules of makeup at all times? Take notes from the Enola Holmes actor's androgynous look, and pair a sharp, chiselled makeup look with an equally sharp suit for a slightly badass, androgynous look. Nude lips, smokey eyes, and contoured cheekbones always up the ante, and when you add a slick bun to the mix, you'll be surprised at how good you look.
