Kate Beckinsale was spotted at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week on Thursday looking beyond gorgeous. Really, I’m hard pressed to name another celebrity that looks as amazing as Kate.

Wearing face-flattering bangs, Kate had luminescent skin and smoky brown shadow to complement her green eyes. Pale pink cheeks and lips finished her look. Gorgeous.

Backstage Beauty: Lela Rose

With the designer’s inspiration of the rainforest, Ted Gibson for Beauty.com imagined his favorite insect—the beetle—and created the foundation of the hair at Lela Rose in the shape of what he imagined a beetle might look like. Ted created really beautiful texture with Build It Spray, parted the hair in the center with added volume at the crown, and pull hair into a youthful pony with a twist.

Makeup artist Tina Turnbow for Beauty.com used wet and dewy leaves as her inspiration as she created a look that focused on the eyes backstage at Lela Rose. She created the look with Stila Precious Pearl Palette, Jade Smudge Pot (shimmering green) and Kajal Eye Liners in Emerald and Pearl. “This deep green eye is so rich it works for everyone,” says Tina. To finish off the look, she added Stila Lip Glaze in Praline.
