Bonnie and Clyde is a great example of two decades colliding. The film is set in the 1930s but made in 1967, giving Faye Dunaway’s Bonnie a new twist. Feisty, gun slinging and cigar smoking just like the original Bonnie Parker but with a cool beatnik edge, Dunaway’s look has become utterly iconic. The makeup is very minimal but combined with costume, hair and attitude, it makes an instantly recognisable image.
Get the look:
1. Faye Dunaway had a beautiful creamy completion so avoid too much fake tan! Clear, even and glowing is the aim.
2. Define brows in a long arch, nicely thick but light in colour. (MAC Fling Eyebrow Pencil)


round shape to e eye, so much more 1930s!
5. As the movie was made in the 1960s, Ms Dunaway sported a fantastic set of false eyelashes. Go for a pair that have clumps of lashes spread out, rather an a
dense strip that you can’t see through. Add a thin line of black liquid liner if you need help hiding the strip, and don’t forget lots of mascara. (Eylure naturalites super full 100)
