Get The Look: Katy Perry’s Glam Look at the Super Bowl XLIX
We're pretty obsessed with Katy Perry's super glam looks in general so when she performed at the Super Bowl XLIX we knew we wanted to steal her Covergirl style.
All eyes were on Katy Perry’s glam look tonight during the Super Bowl half time show where she killed it on stage. Behind every great performance is a great look, and COVERGIRL has the scoop on how to achieve the look from Katy’s celeb makeup guru Jake Bailey – see below!
"Today is one of the most exciting days of my career! Knowing my work would be seen by millions and millions of people I've been understandably nervous. Katy's performance had multiple costume changes so I needed to create a strong look that would complement all of her outfits, as there was absolutely no time for a touch up in between the quick changes. It’s the Super Bowl after all!"
Bailey decided to go with a classic Katy look -- elongated cat eyes, lots of mascara, super sparkly gold and silver glitter, and a bold red lip for glamour and showmanship. I wanted her to glow and sparkle for her big moment in just nine steps!
1. To create a sheer and flawless canvas Bailey began by buffing a dime size amount of COVERGIRL Outlast 3-in-1 Foundation in Natural Beige all over her face and neck.
2. For an elongated cat eye Bailey used COVERGIRL Perfect Point Plus Eyeliner in Black Onyx and painted a glitter adhesive just above the black liner and carefully placed a mix of gold and silver glitter on the adhesive with a tiny eyeliner brush for precision.
3. Next COVERGIRL Eye Shadow Quads in Blooming Blushes was applied to add warmth and dimension. "I love this palette because it takes the guesswork out of getting gorgeous eyes, it has number for the shades – 1,2,3,4 – so I know just how to apply! I used the fourth shade to define the crease and the first shade to highlight the lids."
4. Bailey finished the eye look with an aggressive lash curling and two coats of new COVERGIRL Full Lash Bloom by LashBlast Mascara in Very Black that left her lashes voluminous and touchably soft throughout her performance! No time for flakes during this performance.
5. To give her brows shape and structure, I added COVERGIRL Pow-der Brow + Liner in Dark Brown.
6. For extra dimension, I warmed her cheeks using COVERGIRL Clean Glow Blush in Roses using the lighter shades on the apples of her cheeks and the darker shade in the hollows of her cheeks
7. Then I added COVERGIRL truMAGIC Luminizer to her cheekbones and brow bones for a shimmery glow.
8. Moving on to the lips, I lined and shaped her lips using COVERGIRL Lip Perfection Lip Liner in Hot. I then applied a coat of new COVERGIRL Colorlicious Lipstick in Seduce Scarlet - truly a classic red, for a classic Katy look.
9. I topped it off with a tiny dollop of COVERGIRL Lip Lava in Mauva Lava for a fun and bold lip look!
There you have it! A look appropriate for the biggest game of the year!
