Emily Deschanel was seen at last night’s ARCONA launch party for Eco-Beautiful, a guide to natural beauty & wellness authored by celebrity makeup artist Lina Hanson. The event took place at Vie Eco Boutique in West Hollywood and featured ARCONA mini facials, as well as eco-friendly makeovers.

Emily Deschanel is an actress, best known for playing Dr. Temperance “Bones” Brennan in the crime drama Bones.

Here is how to get Emily Deschanel’s makeup look as seen at last night’s ARCONA launch party for Eco-Beautiful:

Emily Deschanel’s makeup look was created by Celebrity Makeup Artist Spencer Barnes:

Spencer played up Emily’s beautiful sea green eyes with a subtly smoky, yet luminous look. He kept the rest of her face neutral and fresh, with a hint of a raspberry cheek and sheer raspberry shimmer on her lips. The overall look was inspired by Emily’s vibrant vintage dress and her beautiful glowing skin.

SKIN: Spencer prepped Emily’s skin by first cleansing it with ARCONA’s triad pads. He then spritzed ARCONA’s Mineral Magic and applied ARCONA’s Magic White Ice to hydrate her skin thoroughly.

FOUNDATION: Spencer kept Emily’s foundation to a minimum, evening skin tone with Jane Iredale Liquid Minerals in Latte. He set her foundation with ARCONA’s Sunsations Mineral Makeup in Almond for a healthy-looking, radiant finish.

UNDEREYE: Spencer dabbed a bit of ARCONA’s Peptide Eye Serum to retain moisture. Eyeshadow & Spencer created Emily’s subtly smoky eye look by starting with a neutral bronze shimmer (Nvey Eco Organic Eye Shadow 16), topped with Jane Iredale Eye Shadow in Cloud Nine (shimmery lavender) on her lid. He then lined her eyes with Inika Mineral Eyeliner 05 midnight blue, smudging Brown Nvey Eco Organic Cake Eyeliner.

Mascara: For seductively lush and lengthy lashes, Spencer applied Korrres Natural Products black mascara.

Lips: Spencer added a hint of raspberry color with Aveda Sheer Mineral Lip Color in Rhubarb 601.

Makeup artist Spencer Barnes is a rising star in the world of makeup, sought after by celebrities, fashion photographers, and commercial directors. His work has appeared on the pages of Vogue, Elle and Allure and his celebrity clients include Amy Adams, Mila Kunis, Jessica Biel and more.

Bees do it… now MAC does it! Honey that is! As ancient and exotic as Kohl, great beauties have long revered the natural restorative powers of the Golden Elixir.

Following the example of their fabled Queen, Cleopatra, Egyptians bathed in honey and milk. Queen Anne of England used it to silken her hair; from the Ancient Greeks to the Roman Empire, honey has never lost its regal, ever-amber lustre. We love the luxury of its sensual essence…but we also know that it’s a highly efficient and wholesome humectant and healer.

America Ferrera wears Lancôme at 2009 Kids’ Choice Awards: Celebrity makeup artist Vanessa Scali created the look for America Ferrera at the Kids’ Choice Awards on Saturday night. Talking Makeup got the scoop, straight from Lancôme & Vanessa, on how to re-create America’s glamorous look.

How to get America Ferrera’s Makeup Look at 2009 Kids’ Choice Awards:

First, before applying any makeup, Vanessa prepped the skin with Lancôme Genifique, a youth activating concentrate that improves tone, texture and luminosity giving the skin a natural glow.

To create a flawless complexion, Vanessa used both Lancôme Effacernes concealer and Armani Lasting Silk UV SPF 20 Foundation.

Vanessa used Armani Fluid Sheer #2 as a highlighter and applied it with her finger to the cheekbone and brow bone. This gave the complexion a bit of added shimmer.

Lancôme Color Design Cream Blush in Pret a Plum was applied to the apples of the cheeks for just a pop of color.

Shu Uemura Cream Eye Shadow in Beige was lightly dusted on the eyelid and Lancôme Artliner in Noir (my all time favorite eyeiner)  was applied to the upper lash line.

Several coats of Lancôme Ôscillation mascara were applied to the lashes for added length and volume.

To compliment America’s pinky/coral frock, Lancôme La Laque Fever gloss in Cyber Coral and Techno Brick were mixed together to create a high-shine pout.

All Lancôme products are available at www.lancome-usa.com .
