MTV Movie Awards 2009: Get Lauren Conrad’s Makeup Look
mark Spokeswoman Lauren Conrad made her mark in Hollywood last night on the red carpet of the MTV Movie Awards! Makeup artist Amy Nadine explains how she created Lauren’s sassy siren look with mark.
Amy Nadine Explains How She Created Lauren’s Red Carpet look:
Eyes: “To really bring out her eyes, I started with Mini Mark-it Stick in Shell all over her lid, then concentrated on the eye colors from the Flip For It Spring Color Kit in Los Angeles on the crease and outside corners. Next, I blended the Winkstick Hook-up Eye Shadow Stick in Demure under her brow bone, then lightly filled in her brows with i-Mark Custom Eye Color in Gioia. Lauren loves to do her own black liquid liner along the upper lash line using On The Edge Hook up in Cleo, keeping the line thin while winging out the outside corners. Since Lauren is a big fan of lashes, I coated her lashes twice on top and bottom with Make It Big Lash Plumping Mascara in Raven.

Anyone catch the MTV Movie Awards last night? Twilight ruled supreme, winning Golden Popcorn buckets for best movie, best actor and best actress to name a few.

Sienna Miller’s Hair MTV Movie Awards 2009
Frederic Fekkai’s Adir Abergel, tended the tresses of Sienna Miller for MTV Movie Awards 2009.
Sienna Miller, btw, was Marta’s favorite on the red carpet last night at MTV Movie Awards! Sienna was the best dressed and styled. I loved her green short dress which looked a bit 1960’s retro to me. When I think of the ultimate rock chic girl, I think Sienna Miller!
Love Sienna Miller’s hair and naturally tousled waves at MTV Movie Awards 2009? Here is how to get Sienna’s look, thanks to Frederick Fekkai:
Adir started out with the Fekkai marine hair zero-humidity frizz control to block humidity while sealing in hydration to keep sleek for all-day frizz & flyaway protection. He then added the fekkai coif bouffant lifting & texturizing spray gel at the roots to add lift and volume.
