Get the Look: Kate Mara’s Edgy Eye Makeup and Textured Bob

While some starlets turn up at awards shows looking fussy and formal (not to mention way older than their years), Kate Mara always manages to bring a dose of cool to the red carpet. At this year’s Emmys, the House of Cards actress added edge to her ethereal white J. Mendel with a rock-chick-inspired look created by makeup artist Maki Ryoke. “The dress is so pure and light, so I wanted to add a modern twist,” she explained. Mission accomplished. Meanwhile, hair stylist Mara Roszak gave Mara a loose, textured bob to finish off the look. “Her hair was all about shape and texture; I cut it shorter creating a choppy, slightly A-line look.” Read on for all the details on how to recreate Mara’s hair and makeup.

    Ryoke used Charlotte Tilbury Wonderglow, applied lightly all over the face, to create a soft focus, illuminated look on skin.
