I'm Stealing Cara Delevingne's 'Suicide Squad' Premiere Makeup Look Even Though I Have Nowhere to Wear It

by 
Too bad Lisa Eldridge can't do it for me.

The highly anticipated movie Suicide Squad has finally hit theaters. I wasn't particularly looking forward to seeing the movie, to be honest. But in my various social media feeds, I started noticing that Cara Delevingne's makeup was looking pretty damn good all the time recently. (She plays Enchantress in the film.) 
This all made a lot of sense when I found out she has Lisa Eldridge with her for all these Suicide Squad promotional events. And for the world premiere, Lisa gave Cara an almost editorial look: a smudgy, sparkly gunmetal eye paired with a bold red lip.

You Weren't the Only One Completely Obsessed with Matilda's Hair Ribbons



When Miss Trunchbull stomps and spits on the ribbons, I think I was on the verge of a mental and emotional breakdown.

I remember a lot of my friends being obsessed with the Spice Girls or Josie and the Pussycats as children — these girl groups influenced their beauty decisions (Baby’s pigtails, anyone?) and their Halloween costumes. Me? My main source of beauty inspo, besides Ariel’s fire engine red beach waves and copying literally everything my older sisters did, was Matilda.
Yep, as in the little girl in the Danny DeVito flick who could conquer long division without a pencil and paper — and in like 5 seconds, no less — and could make tiny chocolate truffles float through the air and into her hand by just squinting her eyes at them. If that isn't your dream superpower of choice, I don't know if we can be friends. And ready for this? The movie is celebrating its 20th anniversary this month — how’s that for making you feel old as hell?
But other than introducing me to “Send Me on My Way” by Rusted Root (a song that is still on my running playlist to this day) and the horror that is being forced to eat a enormous chocolate cake in front of an assembly of people (though is that a bad thing, really?), I could not get enough of Matilda’s hair bows.
