Create X Factor's Ella Henderson's Retro Look | Rimmel Makeup Challenge

X Factor's chief makeup artist Julia Carta takes up our Rimmel London challenge to create the perfect retro look for X Factor's Ella Henderson using only a foundation, lipstick and mascara. To create this look Julia firstly uses Rimmel Match Perfection Foundation in Light Porcelain. This luminous foundation gives you a beautiful dewy radiant finish and is quite matte so it's not too shiny. Julia's top tip is to only apply the foundation where it is needed and work towards the hairline and the ear to blend it out so it disappears into the skin. Julia next uses Kate Matte Lipstick not only as a lipstick but as a blusher as well. To do this apply a little on the fingers and apply it to the apples of the cheek and blend it in very quickly. For her next trick Julia uses the Rimmel Scandaleyes mascara and applies it to line the top lashes using an eyeliner brush. This creates the ultimate retro 1950s look but it dries quite fast so you got to work with it very quickly. Next Julia applies the mascara to Ella's lashes and because of its big thick brush it coats every lash to give you amazing false looking lashes. To finish the look Julia uses Kate Matte lipstick in a gorgeous classic retro red and there you have it, the perfect retro look.
