Gabourey Sidibe Oscars 2010 Makeup
Gabourey Sidibe Oscars 2010: The Makeup.
Celebrity Makeup Artist Toby Fleischman created Gabourey Sidibe’s Oscars 2010 makeup look.
How to get Gabourey Sidibe’s Oscars 2010 makeup look by Toby Fleischman:
“I had the honor of working with Gabourey Sidibe yesterday for the Oscar…It was Gabby’s big night after a long 14 month promotion of “Precious” so we really wanted it to be all about her. After seeing the magnificent Marchesa gown, it was an easy choice as to what her make up look should be – keep it simple and toned down so she could shine with her amazing spirit and beauty. MAC Studio Fix Fluid keeps Gabby’s skin looking creamy and gorgeous and it’s matte quality works to keep the shine down. We wanted a soft metallic eye to pick up the jeweled accents on the dress.
Maggie Gyllenhaal Oscars 2010
Maggie Gyllenhaal’s 2010 Oscars makeup look by COVERGIRL celebrity makeup artist Molly R. Stern.
“The finished product was perfection. She looked like herself. Authentic, cool and beautiful. Being a part of Oscar day with a nominee is such an honor. It’s like an actress’ wedding day with Hollywood. I love being here. I feel so blessed.”-Molly R. Stern
How to get Maggie Gyllenhaal’s Oscars 2010 makeup look by Molly R. Stern: Maggie is the muse of spring. Her Dries Van Noten gown is a swirl of bright colors that fades into white. For her makeup I wanted to bring out the color of her eyes with some depth while keeping with the brightness of her overall style.
We started off the look by refreshing the skin with Jurlique Rose Water spray. Then I prepped the skin with Shu Uemura red:juvenus vitalizing concentrate and lightly moisturized with La Mer moisturizing lotion.
For a flawless complexion I primed Maggie’s skin with COVERGIRL & Olay Simply Ageless Serum Primer (out in July 2010!!).

Makeup artist Vasilios Tanis created Kate Bekinsale’s stunning makeup look for the 2010 Vanity Fair party: “Kate went to the Vanity Fair party, and was a smash! We went for a easy 70’s chic.. She wore a stunning silver Kaufman Franco dress so I wanted to keep her makeup warm and tawny… Emphasizing her features in an complementary manor, the dress was such a statement , I want her to look like the best version of herself without competing or matching the garment.”
Foundation: Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk
Blush: shu uemura Glow On in Amber 82, and P Wine 25
Eyes: shu uemura pressed eye shadow in ME860 on the lid, Nars Fez on the lash line and bottom of the eye blended softly for a warm smoky effect. I also line the top lid with a shu uemura shiny black eyeshadow, ME 990, and lined the inner eyelid with the shu uemura drawing pencil eye liner in ME Khaki 09. I finished with lots of Diorshow mascara.

NARS Fall Winter 2010 Trend Report: Marc Jacobs
New York Fashion Week Fall Winter 2010: NARS Cosmetics created the makeup look at the Marc Jacobs AW2010 show.
INSPIRATION: “I was inspired by the film La Vie des Autres. I wanted the models to have a dirty look as if the hair and makeup had been slept in,” said designer Marc Jacobs, who specifically requested Barbarella lipstick to be used on the models’ lips.
LOOK: “This look is what you’d see on a girl from the East Village or St. Germain des Pres-an existentialist with a modern twist,” said NARS Cosmetics Founder and Creative Director François Nars whose application technique included using his fingers to achieve the faded effect. “These girls are sexy and cool. Their makeup looks dirty and worn out as if it has been on all night but still translates beautifully on the runway.”
NARS Fall Winter 2010 Trend Report: 3.1 phillip lim
New York Fashion Week Fall/Winter 2010: NARS Cosmetics created the makeup look at the 3.1 phillip lim AW2010 show.
INSPIRATION: Disco-punk. “This is a youthful, rebellious look that exudes a strong sense of confidence. Energy radiates within the girls through their makeup with eyes that have a bit of a rock and roll feel,” said designer Phillip Lim whose inspiration stemmed from an image of Blondie’s Debbie Harry.
LOOK: “This look has many layers,” said NARS lead artist Lisa Butler. “The eyes are punchy and edgy while the skin was kept healthy and glowing. The lips are a soft, sheer pink for the elegant punk-rock princess style that Phillip was looking for.”
