Seriously, how can you not love Freida Pinto? The breakout star of Slumdog Millionaire is just so utterly gorgeous, you'd want to hate her if she didn't seem like such an amazing person. And at the 15th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards on January 25, she simply radiated. Her flowing Marchesa gown was a vision in pale blue, with coordinating eye makeup that made her eyes gleam. Not to be outdone, her hair was pulled up into an intricate poufy bun and accented by a glittery crystal clip. The end effect? Sheer glamour.
See more photos and learn how to recreate Freida's look after the jump.




HAIR:
Begin by pulling hair up into a high ponytail, securing with a tonal elastic. Then wrap it around and around itself to create the huge bun seen on Freida. Secure with another tonal elastic.
To make the front of your hair shiny and silky, smooth a dime-sized amount of Frederic Fekkai Glossing Cream ($20 at bathandbodyworks.com) onto your roots. They’ll appear beautifully glossy and not at all greasy.
Finish by pinning a sparkly clip right at the base of the bun. The Swarovski Branch Hair Clip ($100 at swarovski.com) will add just the right amount of dazzle.
COMPLEXION:
The Slumdog Millionaire’s face is fresh and glowing with just a bit of definition at the cheekbones. Sweep bareMinerals Faux Tan All-Over Face Color ($20 at sephora.com) over your forehead, cheeks and chin for instant glow.
Add definition to your cheeks with a cream blush, blended up and into the cheekbones. Try Kevyn Aucoin The Creamy Moist Glow Cheek Color in Euphoria ($24 at beauty.com), which has a rich, lush consistency.
EYES:
A blend of bluish gray and rose shadows really make Freida’s eyes stand out. Get the look with NARS Single Eyeshadows in Grenadines and China Blue ($22 each at narscosmetics.com). Begin by sweeping China Blue over your lid and up past the crease, winging out slightly at the outer corners to create a subtle cat eye. Then take Grenadines and sweep above the crease and up toward the browbone, blending into the line of China Blue so the effect is seamless.
Liner should be relatively thick to really make your eyes stand out. Try Laura Mercier Caviar Eye Liner in Black ($22 at lauramercier.com), which has a gorgeously lush texture and dries to a semi-creme finish. Make sure to line both the upper and lower waterlines and the lid from corner to corner so the lines are thick and dramatic.
Finish with two coats of mascara on the top lashes. Try Fusion Beauty LashFusion Micro-Technology Pure Protein Lash Plump ($27 at sephora.com), which is formulated with keratin and camellia oil to increase lash length and deliver a high-impact, glossy look.
LIPS:
Your pout should be kept on the subtle side so as not to distract from the dramatic hair and eye makeup. Slick on a pink lipgloss like Sally Hansen Lacquer Shine for Lips in Orchid ($5.99 at walgreens.com), which will make your lips look super shiny.
