Metal Mania

From soft ’n’ pretty shimmer at Belstaff to bold glimmering black at Lanvin, metallic makeup is not just for nightclub wear. Wear it the right way—any day—with tips from Pat McGrath, P&G Beauty’s global creative design director, who created this roundup of stellar looks. To highlight the luminous eye makeup, McGrath prepped skin to look matte, yet healthy, with CoverGirl Trublend foundation, concealer and pressed powder. —Carlene Higgins
