Nominated for a Best Actress AFI for her work in 2:37 at this year’s awards, Australia’s latest acting export, Teresa Palmer, wanted only one thing on the night - celebrity hair & make-up artist, Dale Dorning, to create her look.

For the AFIs, Teresa’s brief to Dale was to keep it simple, and that he did, creating a look that complemented her beautiful skin and epitomized her personality. "Teresa’s AFIs look was very her. It highlighted the fact she is an extremely un-complicated girl who is just so naturally beautiful," says Dale. "She loves her hair curly, so we created a relaxed, but elegant style fitting for the red carpet. Teresa’s make-up was kept quite simple also, to highlight her natural complexion and skin tone, and using Peachy colours for extra definition and highlights."

To re-create Teresa’s look, follow Dale’s step-by-step guide:
1. Start by applying PROOF Cosmetics Tinted Moisturiser in Natural Glow for coverage and to moisturize the skin.
2. Then apply the NEW PROOF Cosmetics lip & cheek stain, Doll Face, to Teresa’s cheeks for a healthy rosy glow.
3. For a boost of peach and slight bronze glow, Dale washed PROOF Cosmetics Peachy Keen shimmer blush over the top of Doll Face before applying PROOF Cosmetics Mineral Powder in Sand around the edges of the face for definition and texture.
4. To combat excess light and camera flashes on the red carpet, PROOF Cosmetics Full Coverage Foundation in W8 was applied as a concealer, and only where needed.
5. For the eyes, PROOF Cosmetics Shimmer Shadow in Candlelight was washed over eyelids, before using PROOF Cosmetics Shimmer Shadow in Hidden Treasure to frame and define the eyes.
6. To finish the look, NEW PROOF Cosmetics Lipstick in Micro Mandarin was applied to Teresa’s lips and sealed with a slick of PROOF Cosmetics Super Gloss in Super Nectar. Having worked with Dale on shoots in the past, Teresa has become a devoted fan of PROOF Cosmetics and Dale!

"I’ve been using PROOF brushes and make-up everyday - they ROCK! So thanks again," says Teresa.
