An Eye Makeup Technique On Andy Adler

We’ve got a quick eye makeup technique you can try that has a few benefits for you. It comes from our good friend of True Hollywood Makeup Vanessa Elesse.

She shared with us some of the work that she does with Fox Sports Extra’s news anchor Andy Adler. There is also a quick bonus lip tip. Enjoy!

Fox’s Sports Extra’s- Andy Adler loves the Bodyography “Canvas Eye Mousse” (eye primer) in “Cameo”, which helps brighten the lid, extend shadow wear and lifts with its anti-aging benefits.

Simply apply with your small concealer brush all over the eyelid or dab a clean finger tip in it and pat across your lid. Set with a tiny amount of translucent powder and begin applying your eye makeup and watch it last all day.

Apply MAC’s Spice liner ( a sultry nude liner that compliments most skin tones) across the entire mouth, then shade in the top and bottom corners of the lips, which creates a fuller pout, then apply a gloss, lipstick or stain right over it and fade the edges by dragging your fingers across the outer rims, for a fresh looking pucker.

Thanks again for the eye makeup technique Vanessa!

Long Lashes On Courtnet Cox

Do you ever wonder how celebrities get those long lashes? Today we have a guest blogger on True Hollywood Makeup who is going to tell us all about their secret.

The desire for longer lashes has spawned the use of several different techniques for creating their desire effect. Fake lashes, mascara, eye lash curlers, and even lash implants are all common place in celebrity makeup. But there are some very interesting products on the market that make fake lashes unnecessary.

Imagine if you could actually get your eye lashes to grow longer. Instead of modifying them or going through a routine make them appear longer, they actually were longer? There is a company out there that claims to have developed such a product.

We would like to introduce you to Kim Mitchell. She is a professional makeup artist of over 15 years. She currently works for a company called Diva where she is a lead makeup artist. In addition to her work as a makeup artist, she also promotes a product that some say has the ability to make lashes grow longer.

Kim’s writing is fantastic, and we believe that she is offering value in the form of educating us about a class of products that may not be within mainstream knowledge. Therefore we are happy to have her share a story with us about how some celebrities get such great long lashes. She’ll close with her recommendation for the product that she represents.

Here’s Kim Mitchell with a great article on creating long lashes out of the lashes you were born with.

Have you ever wondered how celebrities get beautiful, long and sexy lashes? Well, you’re not alone. I mean sure some celebrities use false lashes while others elect for eyelash implants. But what about the actresses and supermodels that seem to just have been born with naturally beautiful lashes. What’s their secret?

The answer to this question are eyelash serums that not only make your lashes longer but fuller as well. These conditioning serums are packed with eyelash nutrients and peptides that nourish and strengthen your existing lashes while stimulating their growth. Not only does it encourage the growth of existing lashes, it also arouses the growth of newer, longer lashes. These eyelash enhancers have been clinically proven to be safe for even the most sensitive eyes.

The three most popular serums currently on the market are Enormous Lash by Beauty Society, Revitalash by Athena Cosmetics and Marini Lash by Jan Marini. After extensive online research and personal use, I’ve concluded that all three products are comparable. One of the main differences however between the three products is price. Marini Lash comes in at $160, Revitalash is a close runner up at $150 and Enormous Lash is substantially less at $95. Hey, no one said getting long, luscious lashes would be cheap. A few points to keep in mind however:

1) The products work! You will have long, beautiful lashes.
2) You save money by not having to purchase false lashes.
3) The products last anywhere from 6 to 12 months depending on the brand.
4) You can also use it on your brows.

My pick is Enormous Lash. Not only is it equally as good but many on-line shoppers reveal that it yields better results than its competitors. I too have experienced the most increase in lash length and fullness using this particular brand. It is also the least expensive, comes with a 100% 12 month money back guarantee and lasts anywhere from 9 to 12 months.

Celebrities that use Enormous Lash are Courtney Cox, Catherine Oxenberg, Swoozie Kurtz, Jenny McCarthy, Kendra Wilkinson, Kim Kardashian, Holly Robinson Peete, Mariel Hemingway, and Kathy Griffin to name a few.

Enormous Lash can only be purchased through a Beauty Society Diva site. Diva’s are Authorized Distributor’s of Beauty Society. All Diva sites connect to the main site so the product will still come directly from Beauty Society.

Jennifer Lopez's Celebrity Makeup Artist On How To Get Smokey Eyes

Plenty of women wonder how to perfect the smokey eye. It is a look that is widely sought after, and seemingly easily mastered in Hollywood.

The trick to the smokey eye look that so many of those celebrities pull of so well is their celebrity makeup artist. And you can learn their tricks.

Christopher Drummond is a very accomplished Hollywood makeup artist who has worked with the likes of Eve Ensler (“The Vagina Monologues”), Jennifer Lopez, Brooke Shields, Glenn Close, Jane Fonda, and more.

Here are Christopher’s tips for creating a glamorous, smokey eye.

“I have a fool-proof technique to get a beautiful smoky look in a minimal amount of time, and you don’t have to be a pro to get the look.”

1. Start with a beige shadow base all over the entire lid.

2. Take a gold shadow, and apply it 3/4 of the way up, not quite all the way up to the brow. Leave some space between where you stop and the brow.

3. Apply a blue/grey shadow from the crease (middle) of the eye to the base of the lashes. Be sure to blend it well, back and forth. This helps the product adhere, and stay on longer.

4. On the outer corner of the lid, blend in a purple eyes shadow to give some extra “sizzle.” Blend well.

5. Finally, use a black liner to line the base of the lashes. Follow with mascara.

Ever wonder how to make your eyes look bigger? The open-eyed look is one that many celebrities pull off quite well.

If that stark and bright look strikes your fancy, celebrity makeup artist Darrell Redleaf has a a great set of techniques for you.

He is a celebrity beauty expert and spokesperson for the Japanese brand KohGenDo and his resume of celebrity clients and movie sets that he has worked with is staggering.
Big screen work of his can be seen in productions such as As Good As It Gets, What Women Want, Castaway, and more. Celebrities such as Cameron Diaz, Jennifer Aniston, and Scarlett Johannson are among an army of Hollywood beauties who have received Darrell’s beauty blessings.

But Darrell really became a favorite artist of ours when we saw this quote on his website: “Beauty is within and all around us…” The all around us part is where guys like Darrell work their magic. The within part is each individuals’ job that makes Darrell’s work really shine.

Here is a set of tips from Darrell on how to make your eyes look bigger to create that open-eyed look.

The eyebrows are the frame of the eye. When a person has an improperly shaped, over or under tweezed or accentuated brow with the wrong color and shape, it can create all sorts of beauty hazards!

One helpful hint is to get your brows professionally shaped by an expert, and then continue to follow their lead just tweezing any new hairs that grow in.

Also try brushing eyebrow hairs down and applying either an eyebrow pencil or brow shadow on the upper part of where the hairs grow, following the shape of the brow and giving the brow a lift on the outer 2/3 part of the brow, for a wider eyed stylized brow/eye.

If your brows are dark brown try a brown color, not black, if you are blonde try an ash blonde brow color. Then brush the hairs upward with a brow brush or toothbrush and your brows are lifted and look natural.

Apply Under Eye Concealer Like A Day Time Star

Undereye concealer can be a woman’s best friend when she is on the go. But the need to cover dark circles isn’t just a problem for the every day woman. The big stars need help in that department, too.

Celebrity makeup artist Vanessa Elese is a lead makeup artist on the set of All My Children. But she is more than just a celebrity beauty expert…

Vanessa is very active in helping women take a step back from the barrage of media images and expectations to be physically flawless and get in touch with their real inner beauty. You can read more about Vanessa on her True Hollywood Makeup profile page and find links to more of her work.

In the mean time, here’s how Vanessa applies undereye concealer on the cast of All My Children.

On “All My Children” I loved using Alison Raffaele True Concealer as a one-stop-shop for great under eye and spot coverage that works perfectly for day to day use and looks magnificent on camera.

To apply:

I like to spot touch the concealer with a small concealer brush and lightly apply to any blemish or spot and blend out so it is completely flawless.

Another approach is to mix a touch of the concealer with your under eye cream and spot apply it light patting it from your inner eye corner about 1/4 way under the eye, disguising dark circles and bags.

This technique hydrates, allows a more sheer coverage, sets itself with the powder finish, and lasts without repeat touch-ups. The true beauty about this product is it’s healing powers it provides with the antioxidants and goji berri complex.

Try it on any blemish and it helps to heal and conceal with its cream application and long lasting powder finish.

Eye Makeup Technique Mimi Michaels

Elle Leary is a pro makeup artist who recently has worked with Mimi Michaels’ – with appearances on All My Children, CSI, and Six Feet Under. She offered this eye makeup technique for an “awakened” eye look that is sure to turn some heads!

“I recently shot with actress Mimi Michaels and a few tips that I used on her are some of my favorites!!

First using a great primer on the skin is essential for the application and longevity of the foundation. I really love Smashbox photo finish for this. I used this on Mimi for her 8 hour shoot and her foundation stayed flawless all day with minimal touch-ups.

Tip: make sure you also use the primer on the eye lids for long-wearing and creaseless eye makeup!

The other technique I use is to apply a highlighter at the inside corner of the eye and along the inside rim to make the eye look open and more awake. I use Laura Mercier Matte Eye Colour in Buttercream for the inner corner and Make Up For Ever’s Aqua Eyes in White 14L which has a pearl white sheen. The Aqua eyes product is also water proof so ideal for this application.”

Thank you Elle for the eye makeup technique. We’ll look forward to hearing from you again.

Vanessa Hudgens Makeup - Eye Makeup Tricks

Brett Freedman has been a featured artist of True Hollywood Makeup in the past and he’s offering another one of his very user friendly quick celebrity beauty tips.

Here’s one of many easy to use eye makeup tricks that uses an eye makeup shade that you weren’t sure you would ever be able to make good use of. It’s one of Brett’s favorites and he’s used it to do Vanessa Hudgens’ makeup.

This is how you can make it work for you.

“Add zing to your eyes with this fun, subtle eye makeup trick:

You know when you buy a eyeshadow quad and there’s one really vivid shade you almost never use? Maybe it’s bright blue that’s beautiful but not an everyday choice. I love to ‘tip’ the eyelashes with an eye-popping shade to add a bit of modern edge.

Curl and mascara eyes as usual. Take a moist (not too wet) eyeshadow brush and swirl in the colorful shadow.

Sweep across just the tips of the lashes. It’s very subtle, nobody will notice the extra added interest unless they are close or you’re in bright light.

This is a great ‘lunch with friends’ tip.

- I’ve used this tip on Vanessa Hudgens.”

Thanks again to Brett for another great True Hollywood Makeup tip! There are many more great eye makeup tricks to come. Stay tuned.
