Buckett applied Garnier Fructis Style Smooth Blow Dry Cream to damp hair, then used a large round brush to blow dry. Next, he used a large barrel curling iron and curled hair from root to end. He pinned curls tight and allowed them to cool and set in order to hold the shape.
"To start Lizze's look, I evened out her skin with Diorskin Forever Foundation #015 Tender Beige and followed with Diorskin Forever Undercover Concealer #021 Linen, to set the concealer and blend I used Diorskin Forever Extreme Control #020," says Martin.
"Our song for the day," says Moss, who jammed to Imagine Dragons while prepping for the show.

“Elisabeth wanted to contrast the beautiful pale pink dress with a little bit of edge so we went with #979 Poison Metal. It complements her sweet look with danger," says manicurist Casey Herman for Dior.
"I picked Diorshow Dior 5 Couleurs #357 Electrify for the lighter shades which are perfectly soft. For a color wash on the eyes, I applied Diorshow Mono Eye Shadow #826 Backstage with my finger to press the pigment into the lid," says Martin. "This gives a light touch without looking to dark and sets the color. I applied a touch of Diorshow Fusion Mono Eye Shadow #001Lune in the corner of her eyes to achieve that etherealness we had planned."
“Lip touch-ups with Rouge Dior Liquid Miss Satin,” says Moss. The liquid, pinky-coral formula applies like a gloss but has the staying power to last all night.
Elisabeth Moss wore a pale pink Prabal Gurung gown, seen here with her jewelry and handbag options.

The Final Look

"On her cheeks, I wanted a brighter pink to give her a natural flush, I used Diorblush #846 Lucky Pink and highlighted and softened the blush with Diorskin Nude Air Luminizer #002 Pink Glow," says Martin. "When using a bright cheek color, I recommend using a dual fiber face brush to create a transparent pop of color on the cheeks. This picks up enough pigment but diffuses during application so it not too harsh on the face."
