SEVEN STEPS TO BECOMING ADELE’S LOOKALIKE
– Get the look –
Adele. I could write an entire novel about the imperishable amount of love I have for her and ever since I bought her newest album, she’s been on repeat pretty much every day and night. Her voice is astounding, so commendable and her sound always gives me shivers. I frequently head over to her You-Tube channel to watch her too – she not only sounds like she’s heaven sent, her looks are just as alluring.
So I thought I would give it a go and turn Adele’s look into one we all want to have. Timeless and chic, powerful with a touch of sex appeal. We wouldn’t mind having the voice either, but even after extensive practice we would never come close. So the look, that’s something we are able to pull off. Here you go: the 7 things you need to do to become Adele’s best lookalike.
1. Dry shampoo
Adele’s look has a bit of a vintage feel. It’s old fashioned and elegant but with a bit of sexiness too. Her hair – it’s as though she’s spent hours getting it done (which might actually be the case) but with these few simple tricks, you’ll be on the right track. Make sure you’ve got a ton of volume and shine. The hair on the crown of your head is usually brushed back and so believe me: dry shampoo works miracles. It will give your hair texture and volume to keep it all in place for a couple of hours.

2. Teint miracle
Smooth and flawless skin can come out of a bottle too. Perhaps an extra layer of it if you have to perform on stage somewhere, but this Lancôme foundation still manages to look natural no matter how may layers you put on.

3. lashes
Powerful, big, vivacious and incredibly sexy. Obviously a couple of extra lashes are in order.

4. Eyeliner
To further intensify the above mentioned look, add a swipe above the lash. A simple wing, this too bold and vivacious, are going to give your look a powerful detail when the rest of the makeup is modest. You might want to practice this one a few times to get the perfect line, but just remember it’ll make your eyes look twice their size and dramatic.

5.eye brows
Adele doesn’t follow fashion, she is fashion. She always looks timeless, so don’t mess with the brows. Tight brows with a lot of volume. Easy to fake, all you need is the right pallet and the right colors. This pallet is worth gold. For everyone.

6. Nails
Adele’s nails have become quite a thing. Either you love ‘em, or you hate ‘em. I personally am not a huge advocate for pointy nails, but if you want to go for the powerful effect then I’d grab a nail file and shape them anyway. The color: bordeaux red.

7. Lips
Just like the rest of the look (besides the dramatic eyes) the lips are kept modest too. A nude color to be exact. Pretty useful anyways if you’re spending the entire night singing and you’ve got no time for a quick fix.
