There was no competition about who dominated this year’s Grammys – all eyes were on Adele.

As well as taking home armfuls of awards, Adele’s dress, hair and makeup landed her on countless Best Dressed lists.

On top of being a red carpet standout and stealing the show with not one but two performances at the Grammys – Adele’s makeup was glamorous, timeless and glowing.

Get her flawless red carpet beauty look with makeup expert Lisa Matson and L’Oreal Paris.

Lisa says: “Begin with an application of L’Oréal Paris Lumi Magique Pure Light Primer, followed by L’Oréal Paris True Match Foundation.”

Tip: apply primer to just the highlight areas of the face for a more subtle illumination.

“Then apply L’Oréal Paris Lumi Magique Highlighter Pen under the eyes along the upper cheekbone, bridge of nose and mid chin to conceal and add highlight definition to your face.”

Tip: select a highlighter/concealer shade two to three times lighter than your foundation for optimal results.

“Contour along the base of the cheekbone with L’Oréal Paris Infallible Sculpt Palette, then add a flush of colour to the cheeks with L’Oréal Paris True Match Blush in Luminous Rose.”

Tip: If you don’t have a contour brush, use a blush brush instead. Just squeeze and fan the brush between your thumb and first finger to create a thin end for contouring along the cheekbone.

“Next create Adele’s sculpted brows with L’Oréal Paris Brow Artist Maker, using the brush end to evenly blend the colour through and shape brow edges.”

“Using the L’Oréal Paris Colour Riche La Palette in Beige, apply shade #1 over the entire eyelid. Then add depth to the outer eye and along, and just above, the eye crease with a blend of shade #3 and #6. Next add shade #5 over the lid layering eye shadow for colour intensity.”

“Finish Adele’s look with L’Oréal Paris Colour Riche in Beige A Nu RRP$23.99, topped with L’Oréal Paris Infallible Sexy Balm in Gossip. “

“Create Adele’s signature feline eyeliner look using L’Oréal Paris SuperLiner Gel Intenza and L’Oréal Paris Volume Million Lashes Feline mascara.”

Tip: to figure out the right angle and length to apply your flick, try this trick: curl your lashes and apply mascara then using a liner brush, looking directly into a mirror, add a little dot just past the tip of the longest outer lash. Close your eyes and join the dot diagonally down to meet your upper lash line.
