Everything You Need to Recreate Selma Blair’s Cover Beauty Moment
Like the headlines about the T&C May covergirl suggest, Selma Blair is invincible. And part of that invincibility, so to speak, is derived from her beloved, gorgeous makeup. In her in-depth interview with Keah Brown, the actress and icon speaks to her love of a good beauty product, saying, “I don’t mind if my muscles get caught at the intersection of a slow brain signal. I just want those words to come from lips covered in Chanel gloss.” If that isn’t the best excuse to try a new lipstick, we don’t know what is.
Blair’s longtime makeup artist, Rachel Goodwin, shared how she and Blair came up with her cover glam—and the products she used to create it, too. On the creative process, Goodwin had this to say: “Our conversations about beauty have run the gambit from ridiculous to profound, but no matter what we always have a whole lot of fun in the make up chair. I often have side cramps from laughing so hard.”
“For this cover the references had a very 1960s feel to them. Many of the most iconic fashion images from that era had powerful eye looks and I was very inspired by that. I love that time period for make up so much, it felt both artful and rebellious at the same time and I wanted to channel that spirit for the shoot. I always like for there to be some kind of juxtaposition in my makeup looks.
I don’t like to cover women up with makeup, I like to help them reveal something about themselves. Our long working relationship has allowed for an enormous amount of trust. Selma has definite ideas and knows what she likes and works for her, but she also always allows me lots of room to play. Over the years depending on what film she was promoting or what her hair color/cut was at the time, we have always found the right beauty approach for where her personal style was at that moment. This look feels like it very much reflects where she’s at this moment. Empowered and fully embodying the joy she has for life.”
Here, the essential products to nail the stunning style for yourself.
