Just tried and loved Michael Todd Cosmetics KNU Anti-Aging Tri Complex moisturizer, $130. It is THE perfect moisturizer for the cold and dry winter months because it is thick and super hydrating. Did you know that this cream has a high concentration of purified snail secretion? According to the Michael Todd website scientists have concluded that this same substance can aid many human skin disorders because of its regenerative properties. Who knew? I’m an Escargot fan, that means I eat snails. Really, I love Escargot. Does this also mean it’s good for me? Food for thought for sure. Nevertheless, my first reaction to KNU Anti-Aging Tri Complex was: “WOW”.

GET THE LOOK: Jennifer Garner was wearing CHANEL Beauté at the 67th Annual Golden Globe Awards. Jennifer’s makeup look was created by Makeup Artist Kate Lee.

Beauty Inspiration & The Look: “Jen’s dress was a perfect nude colour, and the beads were pink and silvery. The overall look was champagne and beige. With her pale skin and dark hair, it was my job to bring colour and radiance to the silhouette because everything else was quite monochromatic. I saw it as an excuse to break out the perfect lip shade.”

Beauty Tip: “I prepped the skin with CHANEL Hydramax + Active Serum and then CHANEL Sublimage Fluid Moisturizer, which leaves a velvety texture on the skin. On Jen’s eyes I used CHANEL Quadra Eye Shadow in Kaska Beige. I liner her lids with CHANEL Long Lasting Eyeliner in Espresso, smudged it out, and used the dark burgundy shade from the quad along the lash line. I then used my favourite colour in the world, the beigey-taupey-lilac shade in the quad, in the socket line. I feathered it along the lash line as well, to blend the chocolate brown liner. I curled the lashes, an applied one coat of CHANEL Inimitable Waterproof Mascara in Noir. On her cheeks I used Neutrogena a combination of Neutrogena Mineral Sheer Cheek Colours in Apricot, Sable, and Rare Rose. Finally, on the lips I used CHANEL Rouge Coco in Rouge Orage. I chose this shade because it has amazing staying power and incredible hydrating properties. It’s an intense rosey colour with a bronze shimmer – perfect or Jen’s full lips.”

Just In: Rose Byrne’s Golden Globes look for Lancôme by celebrity makeup artist Ana Marie. Talking Makeup got the inside scoop on how to get Rose Byrne’s Hollywood Glam makeup look at the Golden Globes Awards tonight.

Ana Marie prepped the skin with Secret de Vie Toner (her favorite!) and then applied Lancôme Bienfait Multi Vital moisturizer to keep skin hydrated and fresh. Lancôme Absolue Foundation in Ecru was applied with a foundation brush and blended with a makeup sponge. This helps the foundation go on evenly and keep the skin looking radiant. To create a sultry smokey eye, Ana Marie used Lancôme Eyeshadow Quad in Innocence Couture.

Actress Amy Smart made her mark looking absolutely stunning at the Friends Without Borders Gala in Los Angeles. Amy wore a black turtle neck dress from Catherine Malandrino.

Here is how to get Amy Smart’s red carpet makeup look thanks to mark Celebrity Makeup Artist Mai Quynh!

“I used new mark Keep It Going Longwear Eye Liner in Jet Set (available Spring 2010) to rim her eyes. I then swept mark I-mark Custom Pick Eyeshadow in Gioia on her lids using the mark Hook Up Angled Eyeshadow Brush and finished with two coats of mark Make It Big Mascara in Raven.”

As the holiday season approaches, we prepare ourselves for Christmas and New Year’s Eve celebrations. As seen backstage for Tamara Pogosian Holiday 2010 fashion show in NYC, it was all about colored cheeks or bold lips. Makeup Artist Stephanie Flor created the makeup look. It was fun and original, and perfect for any occasion.

Inspired by the movement of Twilight: New Moon, Stephanie muted the colors on the face to add a dramatic effect with an intense dark red lip and angel white eyes.

Using a rich white shadow (Cover Girl Golden Sunset) Stephanie covered the upper lid and blended it to the brow bone. The eyebrows were combed upward with clear gel. White liner (Covergirl starlightening white) was applied to the inner rim of the models eye’s to add that special touch.
