Elizabeth Taylor is a legend.The Jewish actress (yes,she converted) was a style icon and beloved actress.As someone who loves vintage and retro fashion,Taylor is definitely one of my fashion heroes (#StyleGoals,anyone?),which is why I love the fact thata rare video of her putting on makeupfound its way to the internet.
Before the age of Instagram and selfies and #TBT,Taylor was a master makeup artist. Mario Dedivanovic,a celebrity makeup artist,recently posted a #TBT videoof Taylor applying her eye makeup,stating with the caption:
"She did that eye in seconds with that tiny brush. Shadow,crease,and liner.Boom."
I mean,did you really think that she woke up with the best bedroom eyes naturally?(Hey,I'd love for cat-eyeliner to just magically appear when I wake up everyday.) According to iconic makeup artist,chemist,and Gállány beauty founder Ida Gàl-Csiszar,Taylor also made her eye balls lookextrawhite by smudging on a deep indigo shadow to do so.Gàl-Csiszarexplains why:
"Blue is on the opposite side of the color wheel and balances a red eye."
Watch the full video below to get Taylor's secrets–and just to watch a master in action:
