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!

The Show: Pamella Roland Spring 2010 Collection.

The Inspiration: The luxury glam makeup of the 50’s and 60’s and the paintings of Georgia Totto O’Keeffe.


 
Tayaba touch up the lids with a highlight of a special product called the VIP to give a little texture. A little bit of corner lashes are added to lift up the eyes. And as the look is eye focused Tayaba kept the cheeks and lips subdued. On cheeks she used Second Skin Cheek Colour in Barely Pink by Laura Mercier. To highlight the cheeks she used Illuminating Tinted Moisturizer by Laura Mercier. To add intensity inside the lashes Tayaba applied Laura Mercier Caviar Eye Liner with a brush. On the lips: HydraTint SPF 15 by Laura Mercier was applied.

Several celebrities have been spotted wearing Rouge d’Armani around town, including Rihanna featuring Rouge d’Armani 401 and Kerry Washington wearing Rouge d’Armani 100 during NYC’s Fashion’s Night Out – it was the perfect long-wear lipstick for the night’s festivities.

Inspired by a flower’s ability to lift spirits and engender energy. This lash’s design emulates the tail of a bird whose exotic purple plumage is accented with white flecking. Petal-like forms hide inside the lashes, bringing to mind a bouquet of sweet peonies.
