Audrey Hepburn’s elegant beauty made her one of the world’s most beloved muses. From her bushy brows and penchant for feline styles to her enviable and effortless pixie cut, she knows the power of a classic look and, best of all, she knows how to accentuate her features. She also approaches her beauty routine in a playful and fun way. “I believe in manicures. I believe in overdressing. I believe in dressing down and wearing lipstick. I believe in pink. I believe happy girls are the prettiest girls,” she once said.
In the early 1970s version FashionHepburn listed her health and beauty regimen, which included “eight or nine hours” of sleep to make her “completely happy”; washing her hair herself every “four or five days” (“salons make me restless”); and preferring “a nice smelling bathtub”[s]”Use Floris oil; and very little makeup. “I never use a lot of makeup. Just on my eyes, I’m more or less as usual… black eyeliner and mascara, dark brown brow pencil… and I’m still wearing a very, very light pink lipstick…. There is no foundation…no foundation. It’s not a question of wanting to look the same; I prefer going without makeup because it looks better to me. “
In addition to her bob and voluminous hair, headwear is also an Audrey Hepburn signature: whether it’s a neat bow Alice headband, or a simple white fabric covering her hair during barre practice. She likes to wear headscarves both on and off screen, often tying her scarves over a beehive, leaving her slight bangs exposed. Of course, shaggy, mini, side-swept bangs and bushy brows are often homaged by today’s celebrities.
Now, it’s been confirmed that the elfin Lily Collins will play Hepburn in a new drama. Based on the best-selling book by Sam Watson Fifth Avenue, 5 a.m.: Audrey Hepburn, “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” and “The Dawn of Modern Womanhood”will tell the behind-the-scenes story Breakfast at Tiffany’sof production. Collins will sport the voluminous blonde hair, thick eyelashes and matte lipstick that made Hepburn’s Golightly a beauty icon on the big screen.
