2009 American Music Awards: Alicia Keys’ Makeup


Celebrity makeup artist Ashunta Sheriff created a colorful, dramatic look
for Alicia Keys at the 2009 American Music Awards in Los Angeles on Sunday. I was not obsessed with her dress, but I did love her blue shadow moment fluttering out from behind a fringe of lush lashes. Here are the deets, straight from Ashunta.

“Alicia’s look was inspired by her hand-beaded gown which was various shades of blue. I focused on golden glowing skin, beautiful blue and burgundy eyes, soft pink shimmery cheeks, full lashes and light pink lips. The look was pretty, regal and sexy,” said Sheriff.

Skin: Cover Girl Queen Collection Mineral Bronze in Light Bronze

Eyes:
Dior 5-Colour Palette in Mystic Jade. “This palette is made up of five beautiful shades of blue. I used the darker shade of blue first then applied the teal blue on top creating a radiant saphire shade that really made Alicia’s eyes pop,” said Sheriff.

Lips:
Mary Kay lip gloss in Pink Diamonds
