Queen Latifah's Eyes

  • CoverGirl Eye Enhancers 4-Kit in Drama Eyes (Compare Prices) and Eye Enhancers 1-Kit in Golden Sunrise (Compare Prices)- Sam shaped Queen's eyes with golden brown shadows, and then a touch of burgundy in order to compliment her dress. He wanted to give her a natural look that would enhance her complexion. To get this effect, try the CoverGirl Eye Enhancers Kits.
  • CoverGirl LineExact Liquid Liner in Very Black (Compare Prices)- Sam lined Queen's eyes with a liquid liner to give her a sharp line that defined her eyes without standing out too much. To get this look, try CoverGirl's LineExtract in Very Black.
  • CoverGirl LashBlast Luxe in Black Platinum (Compare Prices)- Sam used false lashes on Queen, but if you want that false lash look without the mess of glue and applying them try CoverGirl's new LashBlast Luxe. It comes in fabulous shades and adds a slight hint of shimmer to your lashes as well.
  • Queen Latifah's Face and Lips

  • CoverGirl Queen Collection Natural Hue Minerals Bronzer in Brown Bronze 1 (Compare Prices) and CoverGirl TruBlend Microminerals Blush in Shimmering Sands (Compare Prices)- Sam mixed bronzer with blush and applied it to the outer perimeter of Queen's face, giving her a "halo of glow". Sam's tip is to "Never apply bronzer and blush to the center, you want it all around the face." To get Queen's look, try mixing the Minerals Bronzer with TruBlend blush.
  • CoverGirl Outlast Lipstain (Compare Prices) in Cinnamon Smile and CoverGirl Wetslicks AmazeMint in No Care Bare (Compare Prices)- Sam lined Queen's lips and used a neutral lipstick, followed by a nude gloss. To get this look without as many steps, try CoverGirl's new Outlast Lipstain, followed by their Wetslicks AmazeMint lip gloss.
