I’m pretty sure that there is no one who wasn’t in awe of Blake Lively’s look at this year’s Met Gala. The theme was the Gilded Age, and Blake hit the nail right on the head. Her Lady Liberty-inspired gown was perfect for the theme of the night, not to mention absolutely gorgeous. 

With how her dress stole the show on the red carpet, it's safe to say that her phenomenal glam didn't get nearly as much attention as it deserved.  

Blake’s makeup artist Kristopher Buckle created a stunning, and yet very wearable, makeup look using all Charlotte Tilbury products. Utilizing just a few key items, now you can replicate Blake’s glam makeup at home! Or at least we can try, right?

Magic Cream Moisturizer with Hyaluronic Acid

One thing professional makeup artists do consistently is prep the skin, and you can’t do that without building a solid foundation with moisturizer. Something as simple as a Cerave moisturizer from the drugstore can help you protect your skin barrier, but this Magic Cream Moisturizer is a fun splurge for anyone trying to recreate that healthy glow Blake Lively boasts.

Refillable Magic Eye Rescue Cream with Retinol

Every sophisticated woman needs a reliable eye cream. Makeup tends to crease under the eyes, so extra hydration can help to combat that problem. This formula was designed with retinol as a key ingredient to help reduce fine lines, which also trap makeup.

Collagen Superfusion Face Oil

Additionally, Blake's makeup artist used Charlotte Tilbury's new face oil. Needless to say, you can tell how much emphasis he places on the preparation of the skin before applying any makeup. Think of your face as a canvas! A better canvas to work with means a better final product.

Beautiful Skin Bronzer

The secret is out: this bronzer is Charlotte Tilbury's newest product and it will be officially released to the public on May 19th.
