Lancôme makeup artist Nick Barose created Nyong’o’s metallic smoky eye by first applying Lancôme Aquatique Waterproof Eyecolor Base in Sienne #5. Next, he lined the eyes with Artliner in Noir, followed by Le Stylo Waterproof Eyeliner in Noir. For a silvery metallic color, Barose used Color Design 5-Pan Eyeshadow Palette in Gris Fumee, finishing the look with Grandiôse Mascara in Black.
