Jayma Mays @ 68th Golden Globe Awards
Jayma Mays goes bold and practically neon with this orange-red matte lip. I can’t take my eyes off of them!
Makeup How-to by Celebrity Makeup Artist Beau Nelson
We wanted to create a modern retro look and make sure that overall the look was balanced against her gorgeous black dress. I began by prepping the skin with COVERGIRL Simply Ageless Serum Primer and then used COVERGIRL NatureLuxe Silk Foundation for a luxurious skin finish.
I created a smoky eye with dark brown shadows and lined the eyes with COVERGIRL LiquiLineBlast in Black Fire and smudged it out for a bit of drama, then applied COVERGIRL Line Exact in Black over it for added depth. I finished the eyes by curling her lashes and applying COVERGIRL LashBlast Volume.
We wanted a bright pop of orangy-red color on her lips so I used COVERGIRL Lip Perfection in Flame and applied it with a sharp lip brush to really define her lips.
I finished the look by applying COVERGIRL Clean Pressed Powder in Oil Control on her t-zone to eliminate any shine.
See her dress!

I LOVE this. It’s such a different look for her!
Her makeup and hair are lovely, they really bring focus to her eyes and lips which IMO are her most beautiful features….I don’t like the dress on her though. To me it just makes her chest look very flat and it doesn’t flatter her figure.
I think the dress is perfect, especially for the makeup. The silhouette is a perfect throwback to the 1920s.
Love her makeup/hair! The dress is beautiful, but I’m not sure it’s the most flattering for her
Woah her hair is perfect!
Hm. Big fan of Jayma, but I think that this look sort of overwhelms her. I mean, she looks gorgeous, but it’s a lot going on at once. Maybe I’m biased, I watch Glee so I’m used to simpler looks from her. I do, however, LOVE the hair! I think if she went for a simpler eye and maybe navy or a charcoal instead of black for the dress, I’d be positively in love with everything about this.
Great dress and great look!
She’s so adorable. I’m jealous.
Oh dear… Afraid I’m not a huge fan of this smoky eye and bold lip combination. She looks really tired.
With all due respect, this is a lovely look, but I don’t like it on her. Very Nightmare Before Christmas on her frame.
agreed, the dress does not work for her frame, she’s just too thin.
I love the hair, it is soft and pretty. Not a fan of the overdone makeup, too dramatic with a bold lip and dark eyes. Dress is so so, it does not shape her body.
Love her.. but this looks like it’s just to much for her.
Glad that she tried something different.
Not a figure flattering dress on her. Everything else looks so classically beautiful though. I love her big, round doe eyes.
She looks like such a doll!! So beautiful!
She looks really gorgeous but that dress is eating her :S She looks really super thin
I’m a huge Jayma fan as well, but this is all just too too much. I seem to be in the minority, however, in that I love everything about this look EXCEPT the hair. I think with her hair in a low sleek chignon, she could have pulled the rest of the look off.
love the hair and makeup, not so sure about the dress. its too much for such a petite, thin frame.
Wow!! she’s tiny and she looks so different than she does on Glee!! Pretty!
i like this look on her.the eyes and lips are both intense but they work well together because the eyes is very soft and well blended.its a good contrast with her skin and hair.she is a beautiful girl but my only concern is her weight.
I feel as though the lipcolor doesn’t work well with her hair, and that dress really just doesn’t do anything for her. But the hair is gorgeous and the eyes would be great with a more toned down lipcolor.
Another lip colour would have been better. Also she is so thin, looks unhealthy. Hair and eyes are nice though…
Pretty, but does anyone else think she’s looking too thin?
No kidding! Too many bones in these pictures!
wow…she could be in one of the twilight films with this look…very vampy IMO
Love the hair and makeup!! The dress however….
I actually really like it, never would have thought of pairing a summer-y orange lip with smoky eyes. It keep the eye make up and dress from looking too goth-y. Lovely!
I like the look, but I’ve never realized how THIN she is.
she’s entirely too skinny…. BUT I absolutely LOVE her hair and makeup like this. she’s always in such mousey roles. it’s fun to see her looking glam!
I love her, and she is very talented, but she does not look healthy here! I know she’s always been a small woman, but here she looks smaller than usual, and kinda gaunt. I love her lips, but feel like her face products/look and eye make up are not showing her beauty!
Oh my, that makeup is terrible. :\
she looks really skinny here..
oh my! the hair, makeup, and dress all look gorgeous on her, but she looks so tiny
She looks like a ghost with such dark eyes and bright lips
and she’s so pretty, she could do way better.
I think the brown e/s and liner is overdone on her. From afar, it looks good, but up close, all that gunk under the eyes is aging her and not flattering.
I LOVE it!! Her hair looks soooo pretty!
I LOVE the makeup. But my god, have a sandwich!
Love the bouncy curls on her but the whole look is overpowering her small frame. Has she gotten skinnier?
Love the hair, hate the lipstick! It makes her lips look really dry. If they had added a nice gloss, it would’ve worked much better.
She looks very, very thin. I’m sure it’s just the camera angle but her arms and hands look out of proportion and way too big.
I love her hair though! I like the bright lips, but would prefer to see slightly softer eyes with it.
She is so thin!, I think that she should have choosen the red lips Or the smokey eye its a little to much on her as she is so pale.
Love the hair, not too sure about the bright lipstick, but don’t like the dress much – it doesn’t really flatter her figure at all. The open side shouts “Look, no bra!”
love this, she had such gorgeous hair! dress is amazing too.
Nice dress, but get her something to eat.
She is a beautiful, young woman, with gorgeous, pale skin. I wish her makeup would have been a bit softer to reflect this. I would have loved to see her with softer eye makeup and the bold lip, but I feel both is a little too much.
this poor girl looks like she’s about to keel over. her lips call attention to the redness in her eyes, and i’m not sure if it’s the dress or her body weight, but she looks terribly gaunt:(
Her hair looks fantastic, but that lipstick color and dress are a no go. Black doesn’t suit her at all — neither do orange-based red lippies.
oh noo…they made her look like a child with her mothers dress and make up
I love the architecture of the dress and the intense black contrasted with the bright red of her hair. Her hair is absolutely amazing in styling and color.
However, I really don’t think the make-up here is flattering to her features. The orange lipstick strikes a huge discord with the tones of her hair and skin, and the eye make-up looks like it was smudged on in a rush. I’d love to have seen winged eyeliner and maybe a tawny lip.
She is very thin but I think she looks gorgeous and I love how they used only covergirl products!!!!
I LOVE this! She is cute on Glee but this look is even better, she’s stunning!
I think she looks really pretty. It’s a nice change from the prissy little outfits she wears on Glee. It just shows how versatile she can be.
I love her, but I wish they had maybe made her skin tone look just a lil bit more even or touched up the conceler under her eyes
My goodness, she’s a pixie! But I do love bold makeup on pale skin
Makes me feel better about wearing looks like that myself!
I have no clue who she is but she is so thin it looks like if you bumped into her, she would shatter into a million pieces. She gives girls another bad body image to look at and more girls aren’t eating right now to look sickly like Jayma. REAL WOMEN HAVE CURVES.
GiGi, “real” women come in all shapes and sizes, and IMO it’s just as offensive to say a thin woman isn’t “real” as it would be to insult a heavier woman.
That being said, I do think Jayma looks too thin, as in unhealthily so. Unfortunately I know whereof I speak — I was anorexic for years in high school, and it caused effects I regret to this day. Thankfully I eat and exercise normally and am a healthy size 4/6, but I used to have arms and clavicles like Jayma’s, and there’s just no way that’s normal. Sigh.
Now since this is a beauty site
, I will say that I like her smoky eyes, love her hair, but the lipstick is awful. A soft, muted red or berry stain would have suited her much better. And I love the dress, but they should have taken it in at the top and given her some support or push-ups in the lady-lumps area. Listen, I’m not saying women should all look like Kim Kardashian, since I’m an average B-cup myself, but if you wear something like that you need the bust to support it.
wow shes tiny.love the dress.very risky on the lip but i think it does work
her eyes look droopy with this make up on! as for the dress, it’s nice, but it really emphasises the lack of the girlies!
She looks – honest to god – terrifying here. That red shade is ridiculous on her, I can’t take my eyes off it, I think the whole look in general is just not one that she can pull off.
I Love her in Glee and I think this Look suits her perfectly. I just think that if she had just a bit more flesh on the bones (I don’t know if you understand, it’s a dutch saying
) the dress would look even more prettier on here! If I was her stilist I would dress her in a kobold blue dress.. and kept her eyes a bit more natural! I love the combination of the hair and dress though. Just the eyes are a bit to much for my taste. But really, she is so pretty!
absolutely terrible!!!
she seems like she has no breasts at all in that dress, and almost anorectik (i hope she is not)
her eyes seem totally round like circles and the head like it belonges to an other a lot bigger body….her ear is superfycially big for that head too….
the only think i like on her is her hair, whicl is also TOOO big for her.
disusterous look….
I love her! makeup hair and dress look amazing on her, she looks somehow a living, red haired, betty boop *_*
