Lancôme and the 2009 CFDA Awards:Lake Bell, Arlenis Sosa

Lancôme national makeup artist Tarek Abbas is Arlenis Sosa’s go-to makeup artist so it’s no surprise that he created the look for Arlenis on Monday evening.

To create a polished complexion, Tarek applied Arlenis Sosa’s and then added a touch of color to her cheeks using Color Design Cream Blush in Chic Cassis. To define her eyes, he used Le Crayon Khôl in Black Ebony on the lower lash line and applied Artliner in Noir to the upper lash line starting at the outer corner. Tarek wanted to give Arlenis a soft, shiny pout so he lined her lips with Le Lipstique in Sheer Chocolate, applied Le Rouge Absolu in Bordeaux and finished with a touch of Juicy Tubes in Dreamsicle.

Celebrity makeup artist Dara Klein created the look for actress Lake Bell.

Lauren Conrad Book Signing:How To Get The Look

mark spokeswoman Lauren Conrad has made her mark on the world, and this time she’s doing it with the launch of her new book LA Candy! Lauren looked fresh at her first book signing at the Grove in LA for the 1,000 plus fans that waited over 8 hours for the chance to see her! Her celebrity makeup artist Amy Nadine tells us how she achieved Lauren’s radiant look for this exciting event for her fans.

 Amy Nadine Explains How She Created Lauren’s Glowing look:

Eyes: “For Lauren’s fresh look, I swept mark I-Glimmer Illuminating Eye Color in Polished across her entire eye lid, then lined her top lash line with mark On the Edge Hook-Up Liquid Liner in Cleo and finished by coating her lashes in mark Scanda-Lash Hook-Up Mascara in Blacklash.”

Face: “Lauren and I wanted to create a look that was still her signature style with even more sophistication as an author. We applied mark Get A Tint Tinted Moisturizer Lotion in Buff/Natural and highlighted under her eyes and above her cheekbones with mark Get Bright Hook Up Highlighter in Light/Medium. To create her California glow, I used mark Bronze Pro Bronzing Powder in Pro Glow under her cheekbones, temples, along her hairline and under her jawline, then dusted the apples of her cheeks with mark Good Glowing Mosaic Blush in Chica.”

Lips: “I finished the look with mark Chic Duet Color and Shine Lip Gloss in Halo Baby.”

To see Lauren in action in NYC, come to her next book signing tomorrow, June 18th at the Barnes & Noble in Tribeca from 7:00 – 9:00 PM!

Q-tips Vanity Packs: What a Brilliant Idea

I can’t contain my excitement about this latest beauty idea: Q-tips Vanity Packs. It’s about time Q-tips get a makeover because they deserve it. Q-tips are a must-have beauty product in any bathroom, and they are so versatile. You can use Q-tips to clear your ears, take off eye makeup, correct makeup, and apply an acne treatment on that specific breakout spot.

With Q-tips Vanity Packs your Q-tips gets love, but you also look smart! I want to meet the creative  team who came up with the beautiful designs for the Q-tips Vanity Packs and thank them. They can accentuate any bathroom, and take it from drab to glam. Who knew Q-tips Vanity Packs could do all that. There is definitely a new era in my bathroom:)

Lancôme Inside Scoop: 2009 CFDA Fashion Awards!

Who was wearing Lancôme at the 2009 CFDA Fashion Awards last night? Here is the inside scoop on last night’s makeup looks straight from the makeup artists themselves.

Celebrity makeup artist Sandy Linter worked with Michelle Trachtenberg. She accentuated the eyes by first applying Effacernes Waterproof Concealer in Porcelaine I as a shadow base, under eye base and skin corrector giving Michelle a silky soft complexion. Sandy then lined her eyes with Le Crayon Khôl in Black Coffee giving it a smudged effect for a soft contour. To accentuate her eyes even more, Sandy applied Color Design Eyeshadow in Click for a smoky look and Bikini Golden on the inside. She then coated Michelle’s eyelashes with Ôscillation vibrating mascara to give them an extended effect and finish the look.

Blake Lively at 2009 CFDA Awards in Neon Pink Dress

Blake Lively was spotted at the 2009 CFDA Awards last night wearing a pink neon dress. I suspect neon is the latest style trend. My family from England visited me with neon green shirts, which made me laugh hysterically when I saw them. They told me that neon was quite in-style back home. Looks like fashion travels quicker in the UK. Who knew? lol.

How To Transform Your Look by Marta Walsh

I have two beauty tips that will save you money and also will transform your look.

1. Lighten your eyebrows: Lightening your eyebrows whether with a light eyebrow pencil 2 shades lighter than your natural eyebrows or even using a bleach can make a huge difference to your look. When I say huge, I mean an instant makeover. Lighter eyebrows give you a much softer look and accentuate your eyes. 

 Celebrities that I suspect to lighten their eyebrows include: Oprah, Tyra Banks, IMAN, Jennifer Lopez, Vanessa Williams, and recently I’ve even noticed Rachel Rey. Yup:)


Blonde highlights and lighter eyebrows transformed Jennifer Lopez into a superstar

Anastasia Beverly Hills is amazing for anything to do with brows, so look out for their tinted brow gels and brow pencils. I love  Anastasia Beverly Hills Duo Brow Wand (a new powder featuring a dual-sided applicator with Brunette and Ash Blonde Brow Powders).
