Hit or miss: Kristen Stewart’s icy eye makeup and dark hair at the Twilight Breaking Dawn premiere.
Thu, 17 November 2011 2:21PM
With all the hype surrounding the official Aussie premiere tonight, we just couldn’t resist popping up a little celebratory Twilight Breaking Dawn (Part 1) teaser. Here are some shots, taken of the TBD gang at the London premiere yesterday.
Presenting Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner, looking mighty fine and relaxed considering there would have been a sea of paparazzi armed with blinding flash bulbs snaked in front of them.
Once you recover from the dudes in suits, here’s a close up of Kristen’s makeup…
What do you think Primpettes? Hit or miss?
Personally, I think her makeup looked pretty darn divine. Her skin is beyond beautiful and the ice-blue and silver shadow combo did a stellar job at stopping her recently-darker hair and black dress from looking too Gothic. As for the hair, call me old fashioned, but when it comes to halter-neck dresses, I like to pull the classic card with a soft up-style. If she’d just bumped the low pony up a couple of inches, it would have showed off the dress and played up her piercingly-beautiful features that much more effectively.
Want more Twilight Breaking Dawn goodness?
Speaking of Kristen’s hair, how great is this up-style? And that colour…? Perfection.
Make sure you swing by here for the best red-carpet hair and makeup looks from the Twilight Breaking Dawn girlies.
Or swing by here for an easy-as video on how to get Ashley Greene’s classic-looking red lip and gold eye shadow combo.
Over to you now, Primpettes…
When are you going to see the movie?
Are you a fan of Kristen’s makeup?
What about the pony tail? Too low?
If you were Kristen, how would you have done your hair and makeup?

I think she looks fantastic! It’s a great look for us pale skinned ladies, such a fantastic smokey eye… I’m usually not a fan of Kristen’s beauty looks, but the last few weeks she has been looking fantastic and I have total skin envy, she’s flawless.

Hit!

It’s nice, though I couldn’t be more over Twilight and Little Miss Sour Puss if I tried.

The makeup really softens her features and makes her look great and fresh. Perhaps a little more effort in the hair department but it still looked lovely.

Hit- looks fresh , young but still a little edgy. Her skin is glowy-paleness to the max- lovely.

Hmmm I agree about the hair. It melds into her dress too much and I think if she had a break between the dress and her hair it would have looked better, if that makes sense. I think the colour really suits her though. And her makeup looks great, she really pulls off pale skin.

I like it, but I don’t see any ice blue shadow…looks grey/silver to me

Not my favourite look for her but she still looks very pretty.
I think its her complexion, it is completely flawless.
Plus the dress is beautiful!
Loved all her skin (and hair) in Breaking Dawn

I like her hair, her makeup and her dress. And the guys look good too!

I think she looks lovely, but she never looks happy! Drives me mad!

I love this look on Kristen as it’s a little less goth like most of her looks..
Posted by: zoeeangelaa Master Fan // Fri, 18 November 2011 07:52am
I agree beautybee1 the guys look good
I don’t understand why people think Kristen Stewart (or anyone else, celebrity or not) should always look happy.

I like most of it -her skin is a lovely tone and the lip gloss works well -i think they only thing that is a bit off is the white eyeshadow on the inner corners of the eye -perhaps less would be better? it just makes her look a little ashen coloured…..

She looks great, and it’s so nice to see her with a smile for a change!

I’m not a huge fan of Kristen – but think she looks fab here. Definite HIT!

Honestly I’m not a fan of her at all, it is nice to see her smile thou

I love the dress and the grey/black combo with the boys. But I would have liked a little more colour either on the lips or cheeks – it just looks too monochrome for me. I guess they were playing up the pale vampire thing, but in the further-away shot (sure, that’s the expression) she looks a bit washy outy.
In the close up, fantastic.

Kristen’s makeup looks pretty good that night.

Absolutely a hit – she looks amazing.

Posted by: Rockafella Enthusiast // Sun, 20 November 2011 04:17pm
I’m not into KStew or Twilight… but she looked really lovely, the make up was stunning and the dress was gorgeous. But the best part was her smile.

Love the eye make up, hair should have been up though!
Posted by: csrobinson Supporter // Mon, 28 November 2011 04:29pm
I think her makeup looks nice but her hair is awful…
Posted by: beautyelements Master Fan // Mon, 28 November 2011 04:57pm
I loved her make up but personally i think her hair looked a bit messy for a premier.
Much love

I’ve never been a fan of Kristen Stewart, but she’s looking really good here. A bit of a change from some of the more casual, grungy looks she sometimes sports.
