6. The Golden Cleopatra
Channel the power, beauty, and opulence of ancient Egypt with a stunning Golden Cleopatra makeup look. This style is characterized by sharp, graphic black eyeliner and an abundance of shimmering gold accents. Begin by applying a warm, bronzed foundation and contouring your face with a rich bronzer to achieve a sun-goddess glow. For the eyes, create a dramatic, elongated graphic wing using a waterproof black liquid eyeliner. Extend the inner corners of your eyes downward toward your nose for that classic, feline Egyptian look.
Fill in your eyelids with a highly pigmented, metallic gold eyeshadow or gold foil leaf. You can also paint a bold, blue or turquoise accent line parallel to your black eyeliner for an authentic touch of royal color. Keep your brows bold, dark, and structured. For the lips, choose a metallic gold lipstick or a nude lip topped with gold glitter. Accessorize with a beaded gold headpiece, chunky gold collar necklaces, and dramatic gold earrings to look like true royalty.
