AN ARTIST WHOSE BEAUTY SHINES AS BRIGHT AS HER STARRY PORTFOLIO
We’ve talked a big talk when it comes to celebrity makeup artist Kate Lee, but since we’re all about “putting your money where your mouth is” (hence the influencer-approved recs that make up our site), we’ve rummaged through Lee’s archives to bring you exactly that: visual confirmation that she’s indeed beauty’s “Best in Show.” From Keira Knightley and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley to Gwyneth Paltrow, Alicia Vikander and Charlize Theron, Lee’s plucked, primed and contoured her way through Hollywood one mega-star at a time, and yet, she’s more modest and genuine than anyone we’ve ever come across– now that’s beautiful. Below find a few of our favorite Lee-created looks.
