Dreamy Disco Makeup Look

1 of 4

When we asked makeup artist Laura Martinez to create something “sparkly for spring” we knew she would come up with something totally fresh. So we paired her up with actress Nathalie Holmes, and together they knocked it out of the park with this disco-inspired pastel look. Paired with a ladylike floral dress, this glittery vibe is totally fun and unexpected for spring: “The trick is to add a pop of satin to the eyes,” says Laura. “And the look works well for day or night.” Read on to discover Laura’s technique for a dreamy disco spring makeup look:

LAURA’S PRO TIP: To keep this look feeling fresh and un-costumey, skip on the eyeliner and let the eyeshadow be the star. Light mascara is optional. For an even more metallic effect, use a damp brush when applying the eyeshadow to lids.
