Since it's basically all about beauty (there's even a Benefit makeup kit), we've been very excited about the Snow White and the Huntsman movie: the release date is inching closer (30th May) and yesterday the world premiere took place in London!
This meant that Kristen Stewart was back on our great shores, promoting her new movie and trying with all her might to remember to smile at the cameras instead of flip them off. You can tell by her clenched fists.
Anyway, thankfully, the Snow White actress made much more of an effort for this than she did for the Met Ball (she looked so dishevelled she made it into our Worst Beauty List), and actually had her hair up (just like Kate Middleton did)! At first when I saw her windswept front view I was unimpressed, but at the back Kristen's hair was pulled into a bun and a gold link chain was wound around it: a nod to the medieval styling of the movie. Great effort, we love an adorned bun.
As for makeup, metallic smokey eyes were Kristen's choice, with a silver base shadow darkening to grey as it flared outwards, and black liner on the waterline to give some definition. Glossed lips and bare skin finished her look, which was all in all a bit boring I was hoping for some blood red lips, but again we have to be grateful for improvement, right?
But probably my choice for fairest of them all (I'm sorry, it had to be done) was Charlize Theron who looked show stopping in a Christian Dior gown and seemed to have coordinated her look with Kristen: both were in black sheer gowns and both went for smokey eyes! Charlize went for a more punchy, mature look with a dark silver shadow on the inside that dramatically graduated to black towards her browbone. Her hair was kept simple, with a deep side parting and rolled at the side.
