Mariah Carey's flawless yet carefree look.

Blush gives your cheeks a rosy glow and instantly brightens your complexion, while making you look younger. To have beautiful rosy cheeks proper application is essential. Mariah Carey had quite the rosy glow while walking around in Aspen on December 21^st.

The 41-year-old mother-of-2 dabbed on the blush to complement her seasonal style as she stepped out trussed up in a stylish cape teamed with black leggings and her suede brown boots.

To achieve the look, apply a thin layer of your favorite moisturizer onto freshly rinsed skin. If you use powder or mineral foundation, the blush you use should be the same texture. Cream blush should only be used with a liquid or cream foundation and powder foundation with a powder blush. I For a rosy blush powder try Mary Kay’s Winter Rose Cheek Color Blush.  For a liquid blush Sonia Kashuk’s Super Sheer Liquid Tint Blush is always a great option.

1. Spray on Skindinavia to keep your makeup look lasting from day to night.

3. Apply your blush on the apple of the cheek and carefully blend towards your natural hairline.

Kate Beckinsale looks flawless with a natural smoky eye

Who wouldn’t want to look like Kate Beckinsale for a day? She is a talented actress, mother, and wife who looks like she hasn’t aged a day. Her makeup is always natural looking and flawless.  Here, let’s take a look at how to get her natural smoky eye that can be worn day or night.

1. To get Kate’s natural smoky eyes, first use a soft shimmery eye shadow, like MAC shadow in Grain, all over the entire lid as your base.  Apply using a large shadow brush, also taking the color lightly under the eyes as well with the same brush to balance the eyes and add highlight under the eye.
2. In the crease of the eye, using the same large shadow brush, add a hint of a deep shimmery bronze, like MAC shadow in Sable. Start soft and deepen little by little, while also taking the color a touch under the eye as well with the same brush.
3. Next apply a black eyeliner, like MAC Eye Kohl in Smolder, to create that defined cat’s eye.  Start applying the pencil thinly within the eye, increasingly thickening as you slide toward the outer end of the eye.  Use a small angle brush to blend the product as close to the lash line on top as possible and to extend the line up and out on the ends to further highlight the cat eye. Take the liner a bit under the bottom lashes as well.
4. Long lashes will finish off Kate’s ageless look. Curl your lashes, then apply at least two coats of the darkest black mascara you can find, like Dior’s Blackout Mascara. Apply to the top and bottom lashes and make sure to separate the lashes so they are not clumpy.

Rihanna sports a golden bronze-y look.

Fair, rosy skin is definitely a main-stay in winter, but a golden bronze tan is certainly captivating. Luckily, anyone can achieve a bronzed makeup look without the harsh UV rays. Rihanna shows off her glow with shimmery brown eye makeup and a golden bronzed tan that looks perfect on her skin tone.

To achieve a look that’s tan, never muddy, select a bronzer that’s right for your skin tone. Medium skinned women look fetching in golden bronzers, and fair-skinned women are better off with a hue that has pinkish-undertones.

Here’s how to get her look:

1.  Even out your skin tone with foundation, if needed. Then, use a peachy-bronze blush. Try MAC Powder Blush in Raizin on your cheekbones.
2. Apply dark brown or black eyeliner to your inner rims. Then, sweep coppery-bronze eyeshadow like L’Oreal Paris Wear Infinite Eye Shadow Single in Copper Penny on your lids and blend it up towards to your brow bones. Curl your lashes and apply thickening mascara.
3. Apply pinkish or nude lipstick with a shiny finish to your lips. Glide it on with a fingertip for a less done up result.
4. Sweep a shimmery bronzer across the cheeks. Try using Lauren Mercier’s shimmer block bronzer. This has 4 unique shades that when blended together give the skin a healthy, youthful all-over glow. It also brighten eyes and cheeks with a hint of natural color and light.
5. Finish with Skindinavia finishing spray to hold your look all day and you’re on your way!
