Sonia’s trick of the trade? Dior’s NEW Brow Styler ($28). Says Sania: “I love this pencil because it’s extremely defined, so it’s amazing when outlining the brow and filling in any sparce areas,” says Sonia. “Because of the pencil’s precision, you can draw in very subtle, soft, feathery strokes to achieve the effect of little hairs. The consistency of the pencil is amazing because it’s not waxy-it’s a very dry tip which blends beautifully with the hairs.”

MAC Makeup On The Set of Mad Men

Find out what goes behind makeup on the set of Mad Men on AMC: MAC Artist Relations department provides makeup support to several movies, theater and TV shows. Of course, Mad Men is one of them! Talking Makeup is excited to share with you a Q&A with Mad Men’s lead makeup artist Lana Horochowski.

Q: You’re the new department head at Mad Men for Season 3, will you be making any changes to any characters makeup?
A: Since we are moving a little forward into the future, we have changed up the color palette for each character to go along with the time period.

Q: When you were preparing for this season, did you do any research for inspiration? If so, what most inspired you?
A: Weeks and weeks of meetings and research. I love looking through the old magazines. They are a great reference and a huge source of inspiration; however, we do try to keep the characters looking like real people that do their own makeup and not like movie stars with a makeup artist standing by. Magazines and old movies are a great guideline for a basic look and color selection.

Get The Look: Sienna Miller at the U.S. premiere of G.I. Joe

Sienna Miller was wearing CHANEL Beauté makeup at the U.S. premiere of G.I. Joe, Thursday, August 6, Los Angeles, CA.

Here is how to get Sienna Miller’s makeup look at the U.S. premiere of G.I. Joe:

Makeup Artist Kate Lee: Beauty Inspiration: “Sienna was really keen to embrace the spirit of old Hollywood for the premiere of GI Joe at the Chinese Theatre. The dress was a glamorous YSL silk chiffon encrusted with beads in a kind of neutral colour. ”

Beauty Tip:”Adir Abergel and I wanted to create a look that would be classical but modern. It was Sienna’s idea to go with a strong lip. I kept the rest of the make up very neutral, gently sculpting the cheek bones with a mixture of Soleil Tan de CHANEL and CHANEL Powder Blush in Tempting Beige. The eyes were clean and simple to bring the attention to the lip. I used CHANEL Éclat Lumière in Beige Rosé all over the lid and then shaded in the sockets with CHANEL Soft Touch Eyeshadow in Sand. I spent quite a bit of time on the brows to lengthen them, and after lashings of Exceptionnel de CHANEL in Smoky-Noir, I added both individual and cut up strip lashes. The lips were a mixture of two CHANEL Rouge Allure shades, Fatale and Obscure, both launching this Fall.”
