How to Look Like Beyonce

Many young girls idolize Beyonce, the former lead singer of Destiny's Child, and many young men adore her. It is no wonder that her style is something many want to emulate. Try some of these makeup and style hints, and achieve your personalized 'Beyonce' look.

Things You'll Need

• Face wash
• Astringent
• False lashes
• Thickening mascara
• Eyelash curler
• Foundation
• Translucent powder
• Eyeshadow
• Clear lip gloss
• Bronzer
• Whitestrips
• House of Dereon/Rocawear clothes
• Infusion 23 hair lotion
• Flat curling iron

Instructions

1. Start by keeping your face clean between makeup applications. Beyonce and other Destiny's Child members report washing their faces twice daily and using astringent to keep their pores clean.

2. Use false lashes along with thickening mascara and the "Get the last lash" eyelash curler to achieve longer, fuller lashes like Beyonce's makeup artist, Mally Roncal does. Roncal also applies foundation and translucent powder on Beyonce's eyelids before adding the eyeshadow; this prevents smudging.

3. Choose any clear gloss to achieve the Beyonce look. Beyonce's favorites include liquid gold-colored eye gloss for her eyes and lips. Also use bronze on your cheeks, nose and forehead to achieve Beyonce's glow. Her stylist uses "Nars the Multiple" in Copacabana and "L'Oreal Touch On Color" in shimmering bronze.

4. Enhance your smile by whitening your teeth. Beyonce uses Crest WhiteStrips available at any mass merchandiser or drugstore. Special offers, discounts and information about Crest Whitestrips are available online.

5. Wear figure-flattering clothing, such as designs from House of Dereon, Beyonce's line of clothes, or Rocawear. One style Beyonce favors is form-fitting jeans and bolster jackets. You can find stores that sell House of Dereon fashions at its website.

6. Add to your Beyonce style with long, wavy hair you create using a small barrel curling iron. Wash, condition and blow-dry your hair completely. Use products her stylists use, such as "Infusion 23 Smoothing and Defining Lotion" to help style your hair. Separate the hair into sections, and use the flat-iron curling iron to both straighten and curl the hair. To curl, begin wrapping your hair around the barrel of the iron at the root of your hair.

7. Finish your Beyonce style by presenting yourself as a confident, honest and humble young woman like Beyonce does in her interviews. View her archived interviews on shows like Letterman and 60 Minutes. Many are available online on fan sites.
