Beauty Icon Barbara Carrera

“The secret to modeling is to develop character before the camera. In addition to looking beautiful, you need to develop a personality to add intrigue. I think that also applies to acting.” – Barbara Carrera

Born in Nicaragua, Barbara Carrera’s exotic beauty brought her to the covers of more than 300 magazines, namely Vogue, Glamour, Harper’s Bazaar, Playboy, and Cosmopolitan, in America and abroad. Beginning her career as a model at the age of 16, she quickly blazed her way through Hollywood to become the James Bond starlet in “Never Say Never Again”. Infamously known for her role as Angelica Nero in the 1980′s television series Dallas, she is best known for screen performances playing a sinister femme fatale. This extremely stunning voluptuous beauty icon of the 80′s never did steer far from her signature style. I find Barbara Carrera to be one of the most beautiful women I have ever seen.

Perfectly in line with the eighties trends of the runways, it is easy to achieve her look with some of my favorite all natural makeup:

1. After you have applied your favorite foundation, get to work on your cheeks by applying Jane Iredale Bronzer in SO Bronze 1 to bottom of the cheekbone to create a more chiseled effect.

2. Apply Living Nature lipstick in Warm Wood.

3. A finished Brow is always a must with this look. Apply Couleur Caramel Eyebrow Pencil in one shade lighter than your hair color.

4. Apply NVEY Eco Organic Eyeshadow in Grey Shimmer #150 to eyelid and under lower lash line. Apply Jane Iredale Eyeshadow in Cappuccino to crease, outter edges and from edge of brow downward. Quick tip – Apply your Eyeshadow first before concealer so that you can brush or wipe away any excess eyeshadow before applying your concealer. This way you won’t have to apply or fix twice.

5. Curl lashes and apply Couluer Caramel Mascara in Black.
