How To: Audrey Hepburn Inspired Makeup

Before I begin, I would like to give credits to the amazing Lisa Eldridge for putting up such a fantastic makeup tutorial inspired by Audrey Hepburn's makeup in Breakfast at Tiffany

I am quite embarassed to say that I am not familiar with Audrey Hepburn (heard of the name but if you were to show me picture of her I wouldn't know it's her) and I have never watched Breakfast at Tiffany. Having absolutely no clue, I was fascinated by the tutorial Lisa Eldridge put up. I really, really liked the look. It looks clean, sophisticated and not overdone.

So here's an Audrey Hepburn Inspired Makeup, inspired by Lisa Eldridge.

Unfortunately, I don't like how my brows and lips turned out. When I was done with the look, I googled Audrey Hepburn. The brows should be much darker and the lips not as light. I will most likely revisit. Sue Lynn suggested completing the look with an updo when I revisit. Hrmm I'm not good with hair but it might be fun trying :)
