Lily Collins' looks so far in "Emily in Paris" Season 4 are drawing massive love from viewers, and it's all thanks to the "magic touch" of the show's head makeup artist, Aurélie Payen.
While Emily Cooper, Collins' character in the series, became known for her maximalist style in the past seasons, Payen revealed in an interview with Page Six that she barely put any makeup on the actress in some scenes of Season 4, embracing the "no makeup" makeup look.
"She wanted to have this French vibe," Payen said of Collins.
During her chat with the media outlet, the makeup artist named some of the under-$30 beauty products she used to achieve Collins' look for "Emily in Paris."
Benefit Cosmetics Goof Proof Brow Pencil
When it comes to Collins' "eye-conic" brows, Payen shared that the Benefit Goof Proof Brow Pencil, which retails for $26, has a special space in her heart.
"Once you apply it, it’s like you have fake brows… I love this one," she said.
This product does not only "fill in tiny parts," but it is also smudge-proof and waterproof. It is currently available in 12 shades on Benefit's website.
Lait Crème Concentré - Daily Face and Body Cream
This multi-purpose cream is recommended by many beauty pros and used by makeup artists, including Payen.
The Lait Crème Concentré functions as a moisturizing cream, mask, makeup base, cleansing milk, after-shave cream, and after-sun care product, thanks to its main components. It contains shea butter, beeswax, aloe vera, and soy protein, which help nourish, soften, protect, soothe and moisturize the skin.
Its 1.01 fluid-ounce bottle costs $17, while its 2.54 fluid-ounce bottle is priced at $26.
Danessa Myricks Colorfix Eye, Cheek & Lip Cream Pigment
Another product that Payen introduced is Danessa Myricks' Colorfix multi-use cream, which the makeup artist used to achieve Collins' shimmering, bold eye look during a beach party scene in the series.
"Once the director said ‘action,’ I put the gloss on top of the eyes… and then I just hide and they shoot the sequence," Payen said.
This product will be released soon by Danessa Myricks for $20 and is marketed as a "multi-use, long-wearing, waterproof, and buildable high pigment color with a matte finish inspired by skin tones."
