FINDING YOUR PERFECT

FOUNDATION IS EASIER

THAN YOU THINK

“Pick three very similar

shades and, using your

fi nger, swatch along the

jaw-line, blending down the neck

When you try three colours in

the same family, it really does

show the undertones of the

shade and reveals what looks

best on your skin tone.”

— GRACE LEE, lead makeup artist

for Maybelline New York in Canada

oundation is the unsung hero of your beauty look Your red lips and cat eye may get all the attention, but consider this: “It doesn’t matter what kind of makeup you have on—if the canvas looks good, the rest of it will too,” says Grace Lee, lead makeup artist for Maybelline New York in Canada And, most importantly, you’ll feel good Here’s how to

fi nd your perfect foundation fi t.

FIND “THE ONE”

You want your foundation to blend into skin in order to let your true self shine through

The good news? Finding your correct shade is easier than

ever Maybelline Fit Me Matte + Poreless Foundation line now comes in 40 shades (from Fair Porcelain to Espresso)

in a variety of warm and cool tones Remove all your face makeup and test three shades along the jaw line in natural light

The shade that disappears into your skin is your colour.

BLEND, BLEND, BLEND!

Part of the fun of foundation is you can apply as much (or as little!) as you want depending

on your mood—and all it takes

is one easy step Want thing more sheer? Use a damp sponge, blending out from the middle of the face For full cover- age, use a makeup brush.

some-PLAY MATCHMAKER

Experiment with your look by mixing and matching your base with products you already have

in your makeup bag tion plus your face cream equals instant tinted moisturizer Or, if you’re feeling a dewy look, mix

Founda-in some rose oil FFounda-inally, for a glowy look à la Gigi Hadid, add

a dab of strobing cream to your base The only rules here are to have fun—and to feel your best!

PRO TIP

Oily skin can cause foundation to oxidize and darken on skin, so you may want to choose a colour half a shade lighter than your skin tone.

editor’s note

AREER SUCCESS RARELY happens

in a straight line, yet we can get stuck

on the idea that it should be a one-way trajectory That mindset —a fear of tak-ing risks or trying new things, for example—can impact many areas of your working life, not least your happiness and job satisfaction

The stars of the fashion industry give the sion of effortless ascendancy, but look behind the scenes and you’ll find examples of how fundamental

impres-a moment of fimpres-ailure cimpres-an be before one of triumph

Consider this: Marc Jacobs’ spring/summer 1993 collection for Perry Ellis was so poorly received that he was unceremoniously fired Never mind that his directional show reflected a subculture that was about to become mass culture—critics were utterly despondent over the mix of Doc Martens, lumberjack shirts and dark floral dresses, which they labelled as anti-luxury and off-brand for the classic American sportswear label Google the col-lection today and you’ll see that it’s still important and relevant (especially against the ’90s resurgence currently happening in fashion)

This failure was far from being Jacobs’ un doing;

instead, it became a defining moment for the signer, who went on to become creative director for Louis Vuitton for 16 years as well as run his own eponymous lines He later admitted that he struggled to create work that

de-“meant something to [him]” during his time at Perry Ellis, a valuable postscript realization Thinking differently about your career path and how to manage it is our focus in this month’s ELLE Guide: How to Build

a Successful (and Happy) Career (page 70) As you read it, keep in mind the touchy-feely but true lesson to be learned from Jacobs’ experience:

Sometimes you’ve just got to trust your own vision even if the world isn’t ready for it

TEAM TRACEE

I so agree with Tracee Ellis Ross [ELLE Celebrity, September 2018] If being a wife

or mother is what it means to be defined as

a real woman, there’s definitely something wrong You have to be strong, confident and 1,000 percent truly happy with your choices

I am in a space where I’m over the fairy tale

of walking down the aisle in a dress that I’ll only wear once I’m saying “I do” to me, my dreams, my ambitions and my goals My life

is mine I say enough of living under what others deem is my destiny.

REAL TALK

Tracee Ellis Ross, you give the best interviews!

It’s like I’m right there, and I learn something new every time So uplifting.

Dr Sonya Abdulla

Dermatologist and skincare expert

Dr Abdulla answers our

questions on hydration

Q: What are the causes and signs

of dehydrated skin?

A: Many factors can cause skin dehydration,

from stress and pollution to air conditioning,

aging and using the wrong type of skincare!

Dehydrated skin tends to look dull and feel

tight It’s important to choose products with

ingredients that provide long-lasting hydration

while minimizing water loss.

Q: How can we protect our skin

against dehydration?

A: Look for naturally hydrating ingredients

like plant mannose to replace lost water, and

hyaluronic acid to seal in moisture and protect

skin against daily aggressors while reducing

the appearance of fine lines.

The 33-year-old actress is the face

of an intoxicating new floral scent originally created for Givenchy muse

Audrey Hepburn.

From top: Givenchy L’Interdit Eau

de Parfum Spray ($112 for 50 mL); Rwanda; True Botanicals Renew Pure Radiance Oil ($110); polyester, viscose and rayon jacket, Banana Republic ($230); Givenchy Le Rouge Mat

in 331 Pourpre Défilé ($44) For details, see Shopping Guide.

TEAM SPIRIT “Givenchy was

one of the first major brands

I ever wore on the red carpet

I immediately felt at home with them I’ve always felt

my best in their clothes We have a really nice, collabora-tive relationship.”

HEPBURN 2.0? “It’s incredibly

flattering to hear that, but, no,

I don’t see any resemblance

Definitely not going to plain about other people seeing one though!”

com-BEAUTY ROUTINE “True

Botanicals has this face oil that I’ve started using every day instead of a cream For lipstick, I like anything dark, and I get my brows tinted be-cause I like them really dark too I’m especially lazy with

my hair I wash it, I brush it, and that’s it.”

SCENT MEMORIES “Scent is

very important to me; I have

a really strong sense of smell

When I was filming The Girl

With the Dragon Tattoo, I

was given a leather jacket

to wear in the screen test that I also ended up wear-ing when we made the film

The jacket was made by a woman named Agatha Blois, and she ironed fragrance into the leather It was a very strong scent [of patchouli], so immedi ately that’s what the character smelled like to me.”

DREAM TRIP “I really want

to go see the silverback illas in Rwanda or Uganda

gor-I’ve been saying it for years, and I haven’t gone yet.”

FAVOURITE APP “Waze is

probably the one I use more than anything in L.A., but I wouldn’t call it my favourite

Actually, I hate it sometimes

I’m like ‘You can’t go left on that street!’”

SERENITY NOW “I’ve been

doing Vedic meditation for about two years; it’s basically the same as Transcendental Meditation I do 20 minutes twice a day It’s life changing for anyone who’s easily over-whelmed or stressed.”  AS TOLD TO VICTORIA DIPLACIDO; PHOTOGRAPHY

Canadian model is the host of Stitched,

TV’s new fashion-design competition

Turns out sometimes it does pay to listen to your parents—at least it did for Kim Cloutier She was a student in Montreal when her photographer dad sug-gested she try modelling

Pretty soon, she was starring

in the fashion magazines she loved flipping through, with editorials in publications

from Cosmopolitan (UK)

to ELLE Spain and ELLE Canada Now, between cover shoots and campaigns with brands including Simons and Lands’ End, the Brooklyn-based model is taking over your television as host of the

fashion series Stitched.

ON WITH THE SHOW “Every

episode, there are new ers and a new winner I think people are going to like seeing the surprise of each creation

design-I got emotional once There was a designer who I feel has

a promising career, but we had to let her go The thing

is, when you’re filming, you don’t say goodbye just once;

you have to do it at different angles I had to say goodbye

to her the most times, and I was like, ‘No, you guys make

me want to cry; I don’t want

to do it again!’”

TEAM BONDING “There was

a lot of downtime because the designers had to create their garments, so we [Cloutier and judges style expert Joe Zee and ELLE Canada editor-in-chief Vanessa Craft]

ended up getting a TV and we’d watch [trashy movies

like] Showgirls On our days

off, we’d all go to a dance class at the Underground in Toronto and blow off some steam dancing to Beyoncé

or Britney Spears and then grab sushi.”

SKIN DEEP “I could spend all

my money on skincare I use a Caudalie oil at night During the day, I just wear mascara and lip balm I make my own natural balm, but I also love Fresh tinted lip balms.”

FAVOURITE FASHION

“Alexander Wang is my go-to I’m also into oversized dresses My favourite is Stella McCartney Mackage does

a great moto jacket, so that’s going to be my hero piece this fall.” 
