- Hi, I am Tessa Thompson
and you are invited to get ready with me
for my Armani Beauty event.
(upbeat music)
Tonight, for us, what felt exciting is to have my skin
in Luminous Silk and my lips in Lip Power
kind of be the star.
I'm just a glutton and I like it all.
We're gonna try for something fabulous on the face,
fabulous on the body and fabulous with my hair.
Yeah, it looks like it needs that little bit of orange.
I feel like in here too I always like.
- [Makeup Artist] Peach, like a peach color?
- Like a peach, yeah.
I really think that getting ready for a carpet
or any moment in your life that feels important
should feel relaxed.
I think sometimes that just begins with music
and just having fun with friends.
I think probably a song that I most consistently have
at the beginning of glam would be
Aretha Franklin's Day Dreaming
'cuz it's sort of ethereal and just makes you feel light.
- [Makeup Artist] Just make it light.
- That's really matching.
- "Come on Tessa, the makeup artist, I love it."
(all chatting)
(upbeat music)
- For my normal everyday glam, if I could do this,
I would absolutely do this
but I don't have the skill that Keta does.
Actually, this that we're using today
is really user friendly.
Like I could do this both on my cheek
and then use a little on my eyelids.
I would do this in, yeah, I would definitely do this
to the supermarket.
(upbeat music)
I'm really excited to be the face of Armani Beauty
'cuz it's a company that I really believe in.
It's a line that I have used throughout my career
and in my own life.
It's one of the first lines that I was introduced to
that had a range of colors that made me feel
like I mattered in the beauty space.
It feels really special that now I can represent the brand
and hopefully there's, you know, folks that look
at an image of me in Armani and it makes them feel
like they're beautiful and that they're important
and they're seen.
(upbeat music)
Okay, so we have the makeup done.
I'm gonna slip into my outfit and do some last touches.
(upbeat music)
I'm wearing this beautiful Armani Prive.
I'm not sure exactly what you would call this.
A Pearl jacket?
We decided and this beautiful skirt
and I fell in love with it the second I saw it
so it's so lovely to be wearing it.
I think my favorite aspect of the outfit
is definitely this pearl cape, which I would,
if I owned this, I would wear grocery shopping
and various places.
I would probably just walk around the house,
cleaning it, wearing this.
I would wear it with jeans.
I would wear it with sweatpants.
I would be on Zoom, it would be great on Zoom.
Party on top.
It's like dress ASMR.
Okay, I am all ready and we are heading off
to the Armani Beauty event.
See you.
(upbeat music)
I'm so excited.
Like every time I look over, I see someone that I love.
My parents are both here.
I got to do a little bit of my mom's makeup.
You've seen Armani Beauty.
It's been a really special day
and it's just lovely to celebrate this moment
which is so beautiful for me.
(upbeat music)
Bye Harpers, thanks for coming along with me.
