NYX Makeup Tips

Saturday, November 20th, 2010 by mb

 NYX Makeup Artist Chantal Moore shares tips on how she achieved Nicole’s soft, youthful look for the meeting with First Lady Michelle Obama:

 

  1. After using concealer to even out Nicole’s skin tone, I gave her a light dusting with NYX Loose Face Powder in Transparent Light to set the coverage.
  2. Next, I swept Bronzer Powder in Tribal Odyssey over Nicole’s forehead, across the apples of her cheeks and along her jaw-line to give her a glow and highlight the structure of her face.
  3. I then tapped a small amount of Rouge Cream Blush in Glow on the rounds of her cheeks with a brush to give her a soft, healthy, fresh glow. I swept powder Blush in Peach over the cream blush to set the cheek color and add dimension to the cheek glow.
  4. I brought out and added definition to Nicole’s eyebrows by using Eyebrow Cake Powder in Taupe/Ash along with Push Up Bra for Eyebrow using the pencil for added dimension and definition within the eyebrow as well as the highlighter, which I swept underneath the shape of the brow and blended to give the brow line a clean appearance.
  5. I curled Nicole’s lashes and designed a light bronze smokey-eye for her, with colors from The Caribbean Collection, I Dream of St. Marteen, the Bronze Smokey Look Kit and Chrome Eye Shadow in Seclude as a highlighter around the eye, for added glimmer and reflected light up and into Nicole’s eyes.
  6. I used both the Super Fat Marker and Super Skinny Marker in Black along Nicole’s upper lash line. Beneath the eye, I used NYX Slim Eye Pencil in Brown and blended the liner into the shadow.
  7. Finally, for the lashes, I added a coat of Doll Eye Mascara and layered individual Fabulous Lashes  all along Nicole’s upper lash-line. After that, I touched up the lash-line with the Super Fat Eye Marker and added another coat of mascara to blend the real and false lashes together.
  8. I finished Nicole’s look by applying Black Label Lipstick in Acapulco with Mega Shine Lip Gloss in Sweet Heart on top.

The After Party

Thursday, December 31st, 2009 by Cori

As much as we love the holiday season, all the cheering and partying can leave one feeling more flat than fabulous, not to mention what that kind of life can do to your skin. Suddenly – ugh! – you could be carrying extra bags under your eyes.  Lack of sleep and dehydration are a recipe for dull skin and puffy eyes.  Well, I say bah humbug to the Grinch who steals your glow!  

My recommendations for keeping skin looking gorgeous and fresh — before and after the party – in 10 minutes: 

Collyre Bleu Laiter Eye Drops
Benefit's Eye Brite
Jennifer Aniston's Fresh Look
Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer
Bliss Triple Oxygen Mask

Creme de la Mer
Gisele Bundchen
Stila's Gerbera
Stila's Glow

First, splash your face with ice-cold water several times, and, while you’re at it have a huge glass for yourself.  Follow up with a quick, mini eye-treatment mask.  I swear by the Triple Oxygen Energizing Mask from Bliss Spa; it’s perfect for rehydrating and reducing puffiness.  Not only does the mask feel amazing and cool on the eyes, but it also works wonders at helping you look like you got a full eight hours of beauty sleep – even if you have not. Also, if you find the whites of your eyes looking a little dull or red, use a blue-colored eye drop; I like Collyre Bleu Laiter-Blue Eye Drops.


Next step: prep the skin by applying an extra-hydrating moisturizer like Creme de La Mer or Chanel Ultra Correction Lift; both are wonderful and extra-hydrating. Now your skin will feel fresh and dewy, and you are ready for some barely-there makeup that will have you looking fabulous and radiant in just a few minutes.


Instead of a heavy foundation, tired skin will benefit from a tinted moisturizer. Apply just enough to even-out your skin tone. Laura Mercier’s tinted moisturizer seems to be on everyone’s must-have list, and it lives up to the hype. Add a little brightness to the eye area with a light-reflecting product such as Dior’s Skin Flash or Benefit’s Eye Brite; both are great for eliminating darkness. You can also use a touch of the Eye Brite directly under your brow bone to give your eyes an extra wide-awake look. As for eyeliner, try either an espresso color for a soft and natural look, or, for more definition, a deep midnight blue, which will bring out the whites of your eyes.  Bobbi Brown eyeliner gel in cobalt is the perfect shade. Avoid black with tired eyes; it’s much too harsh.


More options for the eyes:  for a clean and simple look, line the inside rim of your eyes with a nude pencil (not white — it’s too artificial looking). Makeup Forever has the right nude pencil, which they call a nude concealer and lip liner pencil.  Makeup artists swear by it and use it as eyeliner; it can make eyes look wide open. If you choose to wear an eye shadow, use just enough for a little definition such as Stila’s Glow, which has three colors in one (use the lightest, shimmery color for the corners of your eyelids). To finish off your bright-eyed look, add a bit of mascara — Dior Show or Loreal Voluminous always does the trick for beautiful, glossy lashes.


Cheeks and lips:  dab on a bit of crème blush, such as Stila’s Gerbera or Tarte’s Natural Cheek Stain in Flush for some radiance. Last but not least, go with a pinkish, nude, or berry-colored lipgloss or balm, like Bobbi Brown Rose Sugar or Benefit’s Benetint lip balm for a natural and healthy look.


So there you have it – naturally gorgeous with minimal effort – an easy guide to looking amazing after a late night! Happy New Year!

Smooth, Straight, Healthy & Shiny Hair for the Holidays

Friday, December 11th, 2009 by mb
Keratin Complex Smoothing Treatment at MilVali
Keratin Complex Smoothing Treatment at MilVali


Call the girls at MilVali — I like all of them — and ask about a Keratin Complex Treatment by Coppola.  It could be a life-changing experience!  Eliminate frizz and curl, add shine and silkiness.   Another reason to call the girls at MilVali is their holiday special: hair and makeup for $100.  It could make you feel like a million.  Highly recommended.

MilVali Salon is located at 2040 Union Street, San Francisco, call 415-409-1500

Are We Ready for Red?

Tuesday, October 20th, 2009 by Cori

To me, red lips are sultry and sexy but they are not simple to pull off.  In the past I shied away from scarlet, though after seeing red on the fall runways for Dolce & Gabbana, Marc Jacobs and Giorgio Armani, I was inspired to figure out how to wear red lips with confidence. 

Is there a red for everyone?  The first step to choosing the right red is to determine the best shade for your skin tone.  If your skin tends toward tan and warm in tone, look for an orangey red. For cooler skin tones choose a blue red. A universally flattering shade is a classic pillar-box red.

 

I’ve heard makeup artists suggest going with either a strong lip or strong eye, but, like most women, I like the best of both worlds.  I think a good option is to go for a minimal, clean-looking eye, but with dramatic black eyeliner and lots of lashes. Add flawless foundation and a shade of red lipstick, and go from basic to bombshell. I think I’m ready to give it a try – you?

Love this look!
Giorgio Armani
Kim Kardashian
Dolce & Gabbana
