CHANEL Beauté and its Makeup Artist, Jeanine Lobell, created Natalie Portman’s makeup look for the 2009 Academy Awards.
Beauty Inspiration: “My inspiration for Natalie on Oscar night was her dress… The colour was a fantastic orchid, and being Rodarte, I wanted to do cool punk rock sexy fairy make up.”
How to get Natalie Portman’s Oscars 2009 red carpet makeup look: Jeanine was going for a smoky eye, and used CHANEL Silky Eye Shadow Duo in Orient Express. She used the pale pink as a base and the dark purple smoked around the eye on the lid and smudged in lower lash line. She added CHANEL Intense Eye Pencil in Noir inside the eye, and lots of CHANEL Inimitable Mascara in Noir-Black for thick sexy lashes.
CHANEL Beauté At The 2009 Academy Awards: Diane Lane

Beauty Inspiration: “The first thing I noticed when I saw Diane was her va va voom black dress! I wanted her makeup to be super sexy and strong, like she is. Because it was the Oscars, I focused on bumping up the eyes with lots of mascara and lashes, and sent her down the carpet glowing and gorgeous.”
How to get Diane Lane’s Oscars 2009 red carpet makeup look: Rachel opened up Diane’s eyes with browns and taupes from the CHANEL Quadra Eye Shadow in Demure. She created a sultry look with soft browns in the crease and a soft ivory on the lids up to the brow bone. The eyes were lined with an Elizabeth Arden smoky eye pencil, and several coats of CHANEL Inimitable Mascara in Noir-Black gave her a dramatic, seductive look.

Beauty Inspiration: “When I spoke to Jen before the Oscars, we decided we wanted to create a look that exuded modern glamour. She had just returned from vacation, and she had that relaxed, glowing feeling, which we wanted to display on the red carpet. She is the quintessential California glamour girl, and she was radiant as always on Oscar night.”
How to get Jennifer Aniston’s Oscars 2009 red carpet makeup look: Angela prepped Jennifer’s skin with CHANEL Hydramax + Active Moisture Boost Cream. She then used a foundation brush to apply CHANEL Lift Lumiere Firming and Smoothing Fluid Makeup in Beige all over the face.

Backstage at Tory Burch Fashion Show
New York Fashion Week Fall 2009: I was supposed to cover backstage at Tory Burch fashion show during New York Fashion week last week, and for some reason I arrived when the show actually began. I have lots of great show coverage but missed the backstage hair & makeup look. Thanks to Daily Makeover Editors Rachel Hayes and Megan McIntyre, I have the scoop for you!
Tory Burch Goes For Bedroom Beauty: “This is a very sexy, gorgeous look,” says makeup artist Diane Kendal for MAC. She used a combination of black and gold shadows to create a sultry, smoky eye. “We didn’t use any mascara which gives it an edgier look,” she says. A hint of gold shimmer was also in the soft pink blush. “Gold is definitely a popular metallic accent for this season.” Lips were neutral and glossy thanks to MAC Cremesheen Glass in Boy Bai, a light, pearly beige.
NARS Backstage Trend Report: Phillip Lim
NARS Cosmetics was backstage creating the makeup look for Phillip Lim’s Autumn/Winter 2009 show.
SHOW: Phillip Lim. LEAD ARTIST: Ayako, International Makeup Director, NARS Cosmetics. TREND: Wispy lashes, translucent matte skin.
Inspiration: The Fall 2009 collection took inspiration from the mythical spirit of rock and roll, while the hair and makeup was created to emulate Tao Okamoto’s look, a Japanese model in Phillip Lim’s Fall 2009 collection. Fused together, Phillip wanted the makeup look to mirror Tao’s mod style with a touch of rock n’ roll. With this in mind, Ayako created a look centered around “poetic mod-rock.”
Look: False lashes were placed on the outer half of the bottom lash line and was the central focus of the look. For an exaggerated effect, matte charcoal shadow was used with a wet eyeliner brush to draw lashes beneath, as if to create a shadow effect. “This is the poetic part of the look,” said Ayako. As a complement to the wispy lashes, shimmering pink and gold shadows covered the lids, while the lips were muted with concealer. Skin was made flawless with the newly formulated sheer matte foundation (NEW for Fall 2009) to counteract the sleepy look of the lengthy bottom lashes. Atop the matte skin, a gentle sweep of shimmer was added to cheekbones to catch the light.
Below is a step-by-step to recreate the look:
