‘New Girl’ actress Zooey Deschanel is known for her vintage style that also extends to her beauty look – bouncy retro curls and cateye flick makeup is part of her signature image. Zooey has opened up on how she takes care of her shiny hair which she admits is dry. She also shares her secrets for finding out what makeup suits you best, and gives her advice on selecting contrasting eyeshadow shades to make your eyes stand out. Here are some of her best tips!
- She Picks Colours That Suit Her
Zooey picks eyeshadow shades to contrast with her eyes: “Pick eyeshadow colors that contrast with your eye color. For blue eyes, copper and orange are great, green eyes are great in purple or pink, and brown eyes look great in blue and green shadows.”
- She Experiments With Makeup
Zooey knows what makeup suits her and thinks it’s important to learn from experimenting with different ideas: “I know what I don’t like and that’s eyeliner all the way around my eyes. Makeup’s about experimenting and looking in the mirror and asking, ‘How close or wide-set are my eyes? Where is my nose? What makes my face look the most pretty?'”
- She Likes Silicone Hair Products
She prefers silicone products because they work on her dry hair: “I use Kerastase shampoo, and I like silicone-based products because they work well in my hair, which is thick and dry. When I was a kid my mom would drop me off at the salon so that the stylists could brush out the tangles. It was torture.”
- She Uses Oils to Cleanse & Add Moisture
She uses oil to both clean and moisturize her skin: “I cleanse with cleansing oil and then I put oil on my face. It sounds crazy, but my skin likes it.”
- She Rinses Her Hair in Cold Water
Zooey’s top hair secret is to rinse her locks in cold water to add shine: “I try to keep my hair healthy and avoid heat styling. For perfect shine I rinse my hair with cold water at the end of every shower – this really helps give your hair for a glossy finish.”
