Khloe Kardashian Says “I Do” To Lancôme Hypnôse Mascara

Sandy Linter, celebrity makeup artist and Lancôme’s Beauty at Every Age Expert, has told us that her bridal clients always ask to look like a Kardashian on their big day. Well, now that Khloe has tied the knot with L.A. Laker Lamar Odom, Sandy has a true blue Kardashian bride to reference.

We thought Khloe looked beautiful and now we know why. Khloe’s makeup artist Mario Dedivanovic told  that he finished the bride’s smoky eyes with Lancôme Hypnôse Custom Volume Mascara mascara. “It’s Khloe’s fave!” raved sister Kim, OK!’s contributing beauty editor. “He wanted her youthful look to shine through and kept her makeup natural and dewy,” added Kim. We say mission accomplished!

Not surprisingly, Hypnôse Custom Volume Mascara, $24.50, remains one of Lancôme’s best-selling mascaras. Its patented brush and fluid, vitamin B5-enriched formula deliver six times the volume, all without a clump or a smear.

MAC Style Black: MAC Young Punk Eye Shadow

I love these three products from the NEW MAC Style Black makeup collection: Young Punk Eye Shadow, Glimmerglass Blackfire, and Greasepaint Stick! They are the perfect black purple shade, or eggplant. Great color to add to your fall makeup bag!

Images below were taken for Talking Makeup’s Twitter!

The MAC Greasepaint Stick is an amazing eye liner! If you are looking for The eye liner you might want to give this one a go. It has a bit of a thick point, yet super easy to apply and to get that perfect line on top of lids, or even bottom lids. And the pigment is to die for. It’s super dark purple with black. This MAC eye liner takes the black eye liner into a whole new level.

MAC F/W 09

CHANEL Introduces Collection Noirs Obscurs

Ahead of her time as an arbiter of style and color authority, Mademoiselle Chanel recognized and revered the color black as a symbol of luxury, modernity, sophistication and seduction. Today, Peter Philips creates a tribute to black with an avant-garde collection of trend-defining eye, lip and nail shades, uncovering the many nuances and undertones of this iconic shade. While these statement-making tones are more daring than demure when worn together, they can easily achieve a quiet elegance when color is limited to either the eyes, lips or fingertips.

ROUGE ALLURE LUMINOUS SATIN LIP COLOUR Limited Edition: Three limited-edition shades of the iconic lipstick exemplify the seductive feel of the collection. The lip colors are an enigmatic play on noir, each with a different, nuanced undertone. $30.00 MANIAC HYSTERIA OBSCURE

QUATUOR BOUTONS DE CHANEL QUADRA EYE SHADOW Limited Edition: Nowhere is black’s mystique more strikingly expressed than on the eyes. A shade quartet of deep green, mahogany, midnight blue and dark violet — embellished with the coveted CHANEL signature — creates a dramatic, yet sophisticated look. $60.00
