Yves Saint Laurent Touch Éclat

In Marta’s Makeup Bag: I’ve been using the classic lately: Yves Saint Laurent Touch Éclat ($40), or in translation: Radiant Touch. I’ve been reading about YSL Touch Éclat for many years now and I even remember buying it almost 10 years ago! Can you believe that? At the time, I made a bit of an error by getting the wrong shade. It was a very pale almost white shade that didn’t do anything to my light olive complexion. So I was disappointed with the results back then. But it’s OK sometimes to give anyone or anything a second chance. This time I got the Yves Saint Laurent Touch Éclat in shade 3, Marta’s shade! And it works amazing on me now! Yoohoo. Finally. Touch Éclat is perfect to cover under eye dark circles and brighten the eye area. Now, I’m in love:)

Then I applied mark Good Riddance Hook Up Concealer in Medium/Deep under her eyes and around her nose blending with my fingers. Next, I applied mark Just Pinched Instant Blush Tint in Sunny to the apples of her cheeks and blended outward towards her hairline.

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.”

Megan Fox Cosmopolitan Magazine Cover October 2009

Megan Fox is gracing the cover of Cosmopolitan Magazine October 2009. Wait, it’s not October yet! Nonetheless, I don’t mind the sneak peek to Megan’s cover. I approve Megan’s hairstyle. You can never go wrong with straight smooth hair parted in the middle. I do it all the time, lol:)

Wonder how to get Megan Fox’s look on the cover of Cosmopolitan Magazine October 2009? Here are some tips! 

I detect grey nail polish. To get Megan Fox’s grey nails try MAC Hello Kitty Nail Polish in On The Prowl.

To get Megan Fox’s sexy long eye lashes try ÔSCILLATION POWERBOOSTER by Lancôme: A two-in-one vibrating lash primer and conditioner that boosts the appearance of lash growth. HYPNÔSE DRAMA Instant Full Body Volume Mascara by Lancôme: The ultimate instant-volume mascara for lash drama. I use both the lash primer and mascara by Lancôme and they work amazing in getting my lashes super long, full, and Hollywood worthy.

To add more drama and difintion to eyes use a black eye liner to upper lash line, and the corner of eyes try: Prescriptives NEW Longwear Kohl Liner in black hohl. Or, Givenchy Magic Kajal Eye Pencil in magic black.

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.
