THEMiriam Leone’s makeup it literally bewitched the 72nd edition of the Taormina Film Festival. In an ice-colored dress like her eyes, mahogany-colored hair and monochrome makeup in the best shade to enhance her features. A return home that has the flavor of triumph and the citrus scent of his land.
Going on stage to receive the prestigious award Taormina Achievement Awardthe actress from Catania wears a perfect play of shades. Ranging between the avant-garde elegance of her double dress with drapé corset – ice-colored like her eyes – and a beauty look studied down to the smallest detail, capable of burning with an exquisitely Sicilian intensity.

The fulcrum is the make-up, a monochromatic work orchestrated by the make-up artist Nicoletta Pinna. Having abandoned the reassuring edges of nude tones, the focus lights up with the actress’s favorite palette: entirely expressed in shades of red. Transparent brick on the eyelids, more pink – but glossy – on the lips.
The make-up here it is not just decoration, but a profound visual connection with the fire of Etna, uniting the soul of the diva with that of her island with an aesthetic thread. No Hollywood-style clichés or false volumes for the Italian diva born in 1985. The beauty shown in Taormina combines purity of lines and intensity of color, without ever losing a shred of sophistication.
Liquid hair mahogany (and matching nails)
To act as a perfect counterpoint to this triumph of chromatic passion, the hair focuses entirely on geometric rigor. The hair artist Mirko Battipaglia opt for loose and impeccably smooth hair, a brunette liquid waterfall with central partingwhich caresses the shoulders with the fluidity of silk. In total agreement with the manicure – short – rouge noir.

In fact, the real protagonist is the dark and very warm shade. A dark brown vibrant and full of mahogany reflections iridescent in the spotlight, marrying beautifully with your skin undertone and makeup palette. This seemingly simple styling choice cleans the look of baroque excesses, balancing the sculptural structure of the dress. Bottega Veneta.
Among the photos and short videos shared on his Instagram profile with the caption «Bringing it all home»Miriam Leone thus signs a lesson in contemporary femininity. Straddling the minimalist avant-garde and the warmth of tradition, where beauty is never just an accessory, but the proud tale of one’s roots.
