Kristen Stewart made her mark yesterday, June 1st, 2010, at the Australian red carpet premiere of The Twilight Saga: Eclipse at Luna Park in Sydney. mark Celebrity Makeup Artist Mai Quynh shared her top makeup tips for creating Kristen’s sultry look!

Kristen Stewart’s makeup look:

“I started by applying mark For Goodness Face Antioxidant Skin Moisturizing Lotion SPF 30 to Kristen’s skin as a moisturizing base.

I followed by applying mark Face Xpert Flawless Touch Makeup in Nude with the mark Foundation Brush to even out her skintone. Next, I used mark Good Riddance Hook Up Concealer in Fair/Light around her nose and under her eyes to even out her complexion and mark Powder Buff Natural Skin Foundation in Nude to set her face. To liven up her cheeks, I dusted mark Good Glowing Mosaic Blush Custom Color Palette in Hush Baby using the mark Angled Contour Face Brush.”

Eyes

“To bring out Kristen’s eyes, I started by smudging mark I-mark Custom Pick Eyeshadow in Retro Peacock layered with Corset to the lids. I used the mark Hook Up Eye Shadow Brush to apply the color and then the mark Angled Contour Eye Shadow Brush to blend upwards towards the brows. I then lined the inner rim of her eyes with mark Eyemarker Color On Line in Enchanted Forest. I finished off her smokey eye by smudging mark I-mark Custom Pick Eyeshadow in Corset along the lower lashes followed by two coats of mark Make It Big Lash Plumping Mascara in Raven.”

Lips

“I wanted Kristen to have a simple pink lip to balance her dramatic smokey eyes, so I used mark Dew Drenched Moisturlicious Lip Color in Pink Posey. The lipstick is super creamy and has lots of pigment to keep Kristen’s lips moisturized and looking gorgeous throughout the night.”

Talking Makeup is pleased to present a Smokey Eyes makeup tutorial by the lovely Lois Price who is a student at Staffordshire University in England. I love my UK friends, you know:)

WATCH: Lois giving you tips on how to create a smokey eye look without breaking the bank! “Have fun with it and create similar looks!!” says Lois.

1. Firstly moisture your face and allow it to soak in, then apply a thin layer of foundation onto your face including eye lids- this will help the eye shadow stick and stay on longer

2. Apply a line of eyeliner to the bottom of your eyes to create definition.

3. Next apply the grey shadow to your eyelids- apply as much as you want.

4. Take a defining brush and apply black shadow to the corners of your eyes. This also makes them look larger as well as create our smokey look. Apply lots- don’t worry if it looks messy- it will soon be looking smoking!!!

5. Then take the grey shadow and blend in the black against the grey to create your overall look- add more black if you need to.

6. Apply mascara to the bottom and top lashes- add fake eyelashes if you want- but don’t go overboard as it can look tacky.

7. Apply bronzer and blusher and be sure to dust some around the neck and chest area to blend in the colour of your face and neck- don’t want it to be odd.

8. Finally put a bit of lip balm or foundation on your lips ready for a prolonged duration of lip gloss.

The end result is complete. A quick and easy way to create a perfect smokey look and it doesn’t even cost you much!

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.

Last summer I had am amazing phone conversation with Khloe Kardashian. The interview was for Talking Makeup’s celebrity beauty section: www.beautyinterviews.com

Khloe Kardashian and I chatted about her experience on her role on the show “Keeping Up with the Kardashians,” and she even shared with me some of her best kept beauty secrets!

I would like to share with you my interview with Khloe Kardashian, just in case you’ve missed it last time.

Khloe Kardashian is the youngest of the three sisters, Kim Kardashian and Kourtney Kardashian, who co-owns DASH, a high-end women’s boutique, and SMOOCH, a children’s clothing store in Calabasas, California. You might also know Khloe from her role on the show “Keeping Up with the Kardashians,” which has quickly become an E! Entertainment fan favorite. In this interview Khloe talks about some of her beauty secrets: from her signature smokey eyes look to the lip gloss her and Kim Kardashian are obsessed about, her favorite city in the world, and future career plans.

Marta Walsh: How do you I keep your hair so beautiful?
Khloe Kardashian: I love Kerastase and all of their products. Once a week I use a deep conditioner on my hair by Kerastase because I get my hair done so much. I have naturally curly hair and I always blow it out.

MW: What are some of your favorite skincare products?
KK: I love Crème De La Mer. It’s a really thick moisturizer and it’s also good for your skin and body. And for soft moisturized lips I use The Lip Balm by La Mer also.

MW: Who came up with your signature smoky eyes look and what products do you use to achieve it?
KK: I don’t really know when we came up with the smoky eyes look, but we were doing the smoky eyes forever. What we like to do a lot is to fill underneath the eye with a green or purple eyeliner, something fun so it’s not so harsh. You can do smoky eyes with color, you don’t always have to use black. We use MAC eye shadows, because they blend so well. I also like using navy eye liner so it’s not so harsh as black. And it lasts forever. It’s fun to do smoky eyes, it always looks so sexy. In daytime you can use a brown and make it darker with a charcoal or a black, and it keeps all day
MW: What was the best lip-gloss you’ve ever owned?
KK: My sisters and I are obsessed with Nars in Turkish Delight. We love it! Kim and I are obsessed with it. I’m so much lighter than Kim, but it still looks so good on both of us.

MW: What is your signature fragrance?
KK: Child Perfume Oil. You roll just a little bit of it on your body and it lasts all day. Apothia at Fred Segal Melrose carries it. I don’t know where else you can buy it. I need to figure it out because I need more.

MW: Which one beauty product we will always find in your purse or makeup bag?
KK: You will always find in my purse a nail file. If I chip my nail, I just can’t function during the day. It bothers me to death. It is so annoying. The other day I chipped my nail and I didn’t have one, I had to go to Ride-Aid and it was a whole process. So I will never ever not have a nail file in my purse!

MW: What is your number one beauty secret?
KK: I love to put Vaseline all over my body before I go to sleep once a week. I put it on my feet, my knees and my elbows and dry areas. I also put it under my eyes. When I wake up I feel like a whole new person. And I love to brush my lips with a toothbrush, because I feel it plumps them up, and it get rids of all the dead cells.

MW: The celebrity you find most beautiful is…
KK: I think Halle Berry is absolutely stunning. I just love her. When she was pregnant and when she is not pregnant, she is just gorgeous. And I love the Olson Twins, I think they both have a unique beauty, I like how big their eyes are. They are gorgeous girls.

MW: How would you describe your personal style?
KK: Classic, but I like to make it sexy like to unbutton it a little and show a cleavage. I’m not trendy, I’m more classic.

MW: Are the clothes you wear on the show “Keeping Up With The Kardashians” from your boutique: DASH?
KK: We always try to wear as much as we can from our store: DASH, when we film or when we do a red carpet. Obviously sometimes we do shop at other places, but 95% of the clothes we wear on the show are from our store DASH. We always share clothes. The funny thing is, on episodes we worn the same things but everyone of us will wear it so differently.

MW: Which other designers do you like aside from the ones you carry at DASH?
KK: I love Missoni, I don’t carry it in my store but I would love to. Dolce and Gabbana. There are more designers that I love but I don’t have enough room to put them in my store. A designer that I do carry in my store in Michelle Mason, and we love her. She doesn’t sell to department stores. Her clothes are funky and different. I love wearing stuff that nobody else has.

MW: The city you love the most…
KK: Miami. I’m in a Miami phase. I might change in a couple of months, but I love the weather, the people, the restaurants, and the night life. I love to go out and mingle and there is a very good variety there.

MW: One or two things some people may not know about Khloe Kardashian…
KK: That I am actually a very sensitive person. Everyone thinks I’m all really tough. I am tough, but I’m also really sweet. I only let certain people to see this side of me, like the ones I love.

MW: Which project are you currently working on and what’s next for Khloe Kardashian?
KK: I’m trying to host. I really would love to host TV shows and red carpet events. I love fashion and I love being in front of the camera. And I really would like to get a clothing line off the ground with my sisters. I wish I could sing, but I can’t.

Talking Makeup would like to thank Khloe so much for sharing with us some of her beauty secrets. You can see some of the amazing clothes and accessories available at DASH Boutique: www.shopdashonline.com
