Hilary Duff catapulted from quirky Lizzie McGuire star to buxom red carpet beauty (what are they feeding those little girls over at Disney?). If you want to copy her look, the goal is to create smoky eyes and polished skin without looking overdone. Here are a few Hilary Duff makeup tricks to get you started. You can try on her makeup in our virtual makeup studio.How to do your makeup like Hilary Duff
To mimic Hilary Duff's bronzed skin, make like a minx and mix equal parts sheer foundation and luminizing liquid bronzer. Apply it with a foundation brush, then sweep powder bronzer on the outer parts of the face (think temples and cheekbones) to avoid a muddy look. Get Hilary Duff's pretty pink cheeks by sweeping on a pale pink blush on the apples of the cheeks. You want to look fresh-faced and alluringly youthful.To get Hilary-inspired eyes in mere seconds, reach for a fluffy eye shadow brush and dip it in pewter colored eye shadow (pewter is like dove grey with shimmer). Starting at the lashline, apply the color to the lid, working it up into the crease and blending it outward as you go.
Dip the same brush in a dark charcoal eye shadow. Put the brush at the outer corner of the lid and blend the dark shadow upward and outward (toward the eyebrow) for a slightly extended effect. Using your fingertip, tap gold shadow along the browbone and blend well. Line your lashes from corner to corner using a black eyeliner pencil (warm it up on your hand if you desire) and fill in the lower lashes just three quarters of the way in.
