New York Fashion Week Fall Winter 2010. Show: Rachel Roy Fall 2010. Makeup by Bobbi Brown Cosmetics.

“Eyes are intense, covered in rich velvet…Scarlet and black create a modern smolder…” -Wendy Rowe for Bobbi Brown Cosmetics.

The Look & Inspiration: A 1930s Egyptian influence weaves together fashion and beauty at the Fall 2010 Rachel Roy Fashion Show. Peacock prints are lifted from feminine silhouettes and translated into bold, beautiful makeup. Iridescent “peacock feather” eyes gleam in denim and burgundy metallic shades from brow to lower lash line with a hint of aqua on inner corners, ultimately lined with a black kohl pencil. An even, dewy finish of the skin, softly defined pink cheek, and sheer beige lip allow the eyes to be the star of this show.

Vera Farmiga was sporting red lips at the Up in the Air LA Premier on Monday, November 30th, 2009, Westwood, Los Angeles, CA. Vera was wearing a dress by Dolce & Gabbana and her makeup look was created by Tina Turnbow, a Natural Makeup Artist.

Eyeshadow: Jane Iredale Liquid Eyeliner in Silver (smudged on lids)
Lashes: Origins Full Story Lush Lash Mascara
Brows: Clarins Pro Palette Eyebrow Kit. “This all in one kit has everything I need to create the perfect brows – from highlighter to powders to even a holding wax to groom them brows.”

Celebrity makeup artist Vanessa Scali transformed the already beautiful “Twilight” star Ashley Greene into a gorgeous vision at last night’s “New Moon” premiere in Los Angeles. “The look was classic 60’s,” reports Vanessa. “Well-defined eyes with lots of lashes, a strong brow and clean skin with subtle pink/coral cheeks and lips.”

How to get Ashley Greene’s makeup look at the “New Moon” Premiere:

To start, Vanessa evened out Ashley’s “nearly flawless skin” with Lancôme’s Effacernes concealer in Light Bisque underneath the eyes. “It gives clean, fresh, flawless coverage,” she said. Bobbi Brown’s Foundation Stick followed. Lancôme’s Blush Subtil in Shimmer Pink Pool topped the apples of the cheeks.

For Ashley’s dramatic eyes, Vanessa swept YSL’s Fard Lumiére Aquarésistant Cream Eyeshadow in Pink Sands over the entire eye. To define and elongate the lash line, Vanessa used Lancôme’s Artliner in Black and lined the inner rims with Shu Uemura’s Painting Liner in White. The finishing touch: a few generous coats of Lancôme’s Ôscillation Mascara in Black for “seductively lengthy lashes,” says Vanessa. Ashley’s brows were sculpted with Lancôme’s Le Crayon Poudre in Brunet.

Finally, Lancôme’s hot new lipstick from the Pout-á-Porter series—L’Absolu Rouge in Chris & Tell—made a sneak peek appearance. The gorgeous hue, which was created for designer Chris Benz’s Spring show, will be available in February. The Chris & Tell waiting list is open at the Saks Fifth Avenue New York counter. Call 212-940-2033 to be added to the waiting list.

Indian actress Freida Pinto has been on the Mumbai modeling circuit for many years; however, most know her best for her debut film role as Latika in Slumdog Millionaire. Since the highly regarded film was released in 2008, Freida has won an Academy Award, a Screen Actors Guild Award, and a Palm Springs International Film Festival Award. In addition to these honors, she is also frequently listed in the media as one of the world’s best-dressed and most beautiful people. While Freida often goes with a neutral palette, we absolutely love her makeup in the Indian Vogue photoshoot!

Below is a step-by-step guide to recreating this effortlessly glamorous makeup look with THEVI cosmetics.

Face: The first step to recreating Freida’s look above is to apply your THEVI Liquid Mineral Foundation with SPF 15 as needed to smooth out any flaws, leaving a clean, fresh face. Next, add color to the face with THEVI Mineral Finishing Powder Duo in Mocha Mates. For this particular look, it is best to apply this product in a “3” starting at the middle of the forehead, curving out down to just below the cheekbone, and curving out once more down to the chin. Highlight by adding a touch of the lighter shade right on the cheekbones.

Eyes: Begin by applying a base eye shadow, such as THEVI’s Matte Shadow in Cameo, all over the eyelids from the lashes up to the brow. Second, line the eyes along the upper eyelashes, as well as the area just above the lower eyelashes, from the outer corner to the inner corner with THEVI Automatic Long Lasting Eye Liner in Onyx. Third, apply THEVI Matte Shadow in Dark Brown to the eyelid from the base of the eyelashes up to the crease of the eye, blending the existing eyeliner up into the shadow. Fourth, blend the medium shade of THEVI’s Triple Split Eye Shadow in Bistro over the dark brown shadow, as well as just above the crease to lift the eye. Finish the eyes off with two coats of THEVI Lush Mascara, wiggling from the base of the lashes out to the ends for ultimate length.

Lips: It is essential to finish off the look with a glossy, intense pout. Start by applying a small amount of THEVI Liquid Mineral Foundation with SPF 15 around the outer edges of the lip. Next, play connect the dots with your THEVI Automatic Long-lasting Lip Liner in Port by dotting the two upper points of your top lip, the middle of your bottom lid, the corners of your mouth, then connecting everything in between. Last, apply one coat of THEVI High Impact Lipstick in Drama, then blot and repeat for ultimate wearing power.

Finishing touches: After you’ve recreated this elegant Freida Pinto look, be sure to set it using THEVI’s Mineral Pressed Powder all over the face!

Jennifer Lopez lit up the red carpet at the ‘This Is It’ premiere.

Here is how you can get Jennifer Lopez aka JLO’s look for less with MILANI COSMETICS:

“She will usually emphasize one feature at a time, never allowing her makeup to overpower her exquisite features,” says Celebrity Makeup Artist Bebe Booth, who has worked with everyone from Britney Spears to Shannon Elizabeth. Bebe reveals how you can recreate Jennifer’s look for less with MILANI COSMETICS for around $50! www.milanicosmetics.com

EYES: It is all about the eyes for this look. To achieve these beautiful bold smokey eyes for an evening out on the town, you will need several shadows to create the look. I recommend two palettes from Milani’s Runway Eyes Fashion Shadows; Backstage Basics ($8.99) for your shimmery silver & black shades and the Ready To Wear ($8.99) palette for the golden highlight around the inner corners of your eyes. Each of these palettes has six shades to choose from, so you have many options for creating a soft or heavy smokey eye. For this look, keep the darker shades toward the outer crease and the shimmer highlights toward the inner crease of the eye.

To really make your eyes pop, you will need Milani’s Eyeliner Pencil in True Black ($3.99). Line the eye top to bottom from the inner corner to the outer corner of the eye; don’t be afraid to smudge the liner for a softer affect. Though it might feel strange to apply the pencil liner along the inside of the waterline, it will definitely give your smoky eye that dramatic affect Jen is known for. Don’t forget about the lashes – you want them to stand out as well – so apply several coats of Milani’s Power Lash in Black ($6.49). I recommend applying the first few coats of mascara for thickness, let the lashes dry and then go back to add length with a finishing coat.

FACE/CHEEKS: Keep your skin looking natural with a simple sweep of Milani’s Even-Tone Powder ($7.49). You don’t want your foundation to look thick or heavy. Bronze the cheeks with Milani’s Radiant Powder Bronzer ($5.99) by sweeping the bronzer from the apple of your cheek up toward the ear in long single strokes. If you don’t know where your apple begins, make a cheesy smile in the mirror and start applying your blush where the circle of the cheek begins. To find your contouring line, suck your lips in like a fish and follow the line that appears along the cheekbone. Remember, don’t overdo the blush; it’s only meant to highlight the cheekbone for a fresh look.

LIPS: To complement her bold eyes, Jennifer has chosen a nude glossy lip. I suggest Milani’s Crystal Gloss in Whisper ($4.49) for light glossy lips. This gloss offers mega shine while leaving your lips kiss-ably soft!

JENNIFER SIDENOTEL Jennifer keeps her brows clean and natural. For this look I recommend using the Brow Fix Kit in Light ($6.49) to shade in uneven brows, or to add depth to really light brows using the brow brush. This kit comes with 2 tone-on-tone shades; brow bone highlighter; 3 essential tools and a 3x magnifying mirror that you will need to create the perfect brow. This is one of my absolute favorite brow kits, easy to use and compact.

Here is how to get LC’s aka Lauren Conrad VMA 2009 makeup look: mark Spokeswoman, Lauren Conrad made her mark last night on the red carpet of the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards (VMA’s). Celebrity makeup artist Amy Nadine explains how to get Lauren’s gorgeous red carpet look.

Eyes: “Lauren wore a beautiful black and cream Diane von Furstenberg dress, so we decided the inspiration for her look would be “smoldering sophistication”. Lauren wanted a statement eye so we started by lining her eyes with mark Get in Line Hook Up Waterproof Eyeliner in Painted Black with a sweep of mark I-mark Custom Pick Eyeshadow in Corset on top and smudged outward with an eyeliner brush.”

Face: “I started by applying mark Speedway Do Everything in Natural and then dusted her face with mark Matte-nificent Oil Absorbing Powder in Natural/Buff. To further highlight and draw focus to her eyes, I used mark Get Bright Hook Up Highlighter in Light/Medium under her eyes and above her cheekbones. To give her that summer glow, I finished by dusting mark Good Glowing Mosaic Blush in Cameo Glo and mark Bronze Pro Bronzing Powder to her cheeks.”

 Lips: “I finished Lauren’s look by applying mark Dew Drenched Moisturlicious Lip Color in Skinny Dip to her lips.”

Amy Nadine did the makeup for Lauren Conrad for the 2009 Hollywood Style Awards using mark cosmetics. 

Inspiration: “In honor of stylist Britt Bardo, Lauren mixed rocker-chic with a girly-glam! Her floral bubble dress was paired with studded punk-inspired pumps and her braided half-up hair-do contrasted perfectly with her hot pink lips.”

Here is how to get Lauren Conrad’s makeup look according to celebrity makeup artist Amy Nadine’s blog: www.amynadine.blogspot.com

“To create the look, I first filled in her entire lip with Kissink Lip Tintmarker in Berry Bitten, a lip stain favorite of ours that lasts all night yet isn’t dry or flaky. Then I added a coat of Lip Exotics Lip Lacquer Hook Up in Pop for a luscious wet look with a huge color impact. For her cheeks, I applied Just Pinched Instant Blush Tint in Cheeky, a perfect true pink cream blush, on the apples of her cheeks then dusted above her cheekbones in Twinklebelle (Rose), a shimmery pearlized powder that I also used on her collar bone and shoulders. Finally, to keep all of the emphasis on her winged-out cat eyes (Get In Line Liquid Liner Hook Up in Painted Black), I left her lower lash line undefined, except for a coat of Make It Big Mascara in Raven.”
