Celebrity Makeup Artist, Linda Hay, created a 70s glam inspired look for Selena Gomez this evening to accompany her jeweled Calvin Klein gown.

First, Hay started by moisturizing Selena’s skin with the Burt’s Bees Intense Hydration Day Lotion followed by a fine application of the Burt’s Bees BB Cream in Medium to brighten up the skin, giving it the perfect dewy finish.

As for lips, “I used Burt’s Bees NEW Lipstick in Nile Nude for a sheer beige to contrast the smoky eye,” says Hay.

Get the look from the Malan Breton show using Cargo Cosmetics

get-the-look from the Malan Breton show using Cargo Cosmetics.

 

Created by lead artist, Joey Sanchez for Cargo Cosmetics, the look was dubbed “Gotham Disco Dollies” and played off the 70s and 80s glam inspired collection. The face was made up of high impact shine on eyelids and cheekbones, with cancelled out brows and a bright, strong lip.  
Get-the-look from Joey Sanchez:

 

PRIME THE FACE

  • Prime the face using the Cargo HD Picture Perfect Pore Refining Primer followed by foundation.

CANCEL OUT THE BROWS

  • Use wax on the brows to create a base for cancelling. This is not a total drag queen style, but we took a page out of those fierce ladies’ book! Layer on the wax and use translucent powder until completely flattened and matte.
  • Cover the brow using a creamy concealer with a thick consistency as opposed to liquid foundation. I used Cargo Cosmetics’ Double Agent Concealing Balm.
  • I then went back and lined the inner part of the brow with the Brow Pencil and set it with powder.

 

HIGHLIGHT AND CONTOUR

  • Match concealer to the model’s inner wrist to find the right shade for highlighting and drawing their features forward. This is a tip I use to bring forth dimensions in the face. Finish with Cargo HD Picture Perfect Pressed Powder all over to set.
  • Now that you have your perfect, blank canvas – we get to do the fun stuff! We used the Cargo ColorStick in “Champagne” as an eye shadow base and used it to highlight cheekbones followed by the Matte Bronzer for contouring.

 

ADD LOTS OF SHEEN AND DEFINITION TO THE EYES

  • We used a mix of the Cargo Eye Shadow Single in “Toronto” with the Colorstick in “Champagne” for the eyes. Lots of shimmer and sheen that look amazing – almost wet – under the runway lights.
  • The hot lights made Cargo’s Swimmables water-resistant (aka sweat proof!) line a must. We lined using the Eye Pencil in “Black Sea.” I winged out the liner diffusing as I go for a more blended look. We also lined the inner waterline and lower lashes.
  • I added falsies for lots of drama and finished the look off with Cargo’s new Boundless Lashes Mascara.

 

FINISH WITH A STRONG RED POUT

  • For the lips, I primed with the HD Lip Primer, lined using Swimmables Lip Pencil in “Moscow” and then made a custom blend of the Essential Lip Color in “Paris” and “Sedona” for that beautiful red shade. Topped it off with a shimmer Lip Gloss on the bottom pout and cupid’s bow in “Belgium.”

Celebrity Makeup Artist, Lisa Aharon, created Florence Welch’s 2016 Grammy Awards look

unnamed-2

Celebrity Makeup Artist, Lisa Aharon, created Florence Welch’s 2016 Grammy Awards look with the help of Burt’s Bees. Here, Aharon shares how to get Florence Welch’s red carpet look.

Aharon first began by prepping Florence’s skin with Burt’s Bees Repair Serum, to instantly revive her skin. She then used Burt’s Bees Garden Tomato Toner to cleanse Florence’s skin. In terms of hydration, Aharon combined the Burt’s Bees Repair Serum with Burt’s Bees Sensitive Daily Moisturizing Cream for light moisture that’s less reflective on camera. Lastly, she provided a few dabs of the Burt’s Bees Brightening Eye Treatment to hydrate the delicate under areas to complete the skin preparation.

For the lips Aharon began by scrubbing Florence’s lips lightly with a Burt’s Bees Sensitive Facial Cleansing Towelette with Cotton Extract. This helped slough off any dead skin so that Burt’s Bees Ultra Conditioning Lip Balm with Kokum Butter would then be absorbed properly. This helped prepare the lips, so that lipstick would go on smoothly and evenly. To complete the lips, Aharon applied Burt’s Bees NEW Lipstick in Iced Iris as the perfect shade to complete her look.

Hard Candy Shadow Spheres are Baked just right

unnamed-5

I recently tried  some of Hard Candy Shadow Spheres Baked Eyeshadow pallettes, and I have to say that I am so impressed with them. First of all, each pallet comes with 10 colors, two applicators, and a mirror for on the go use. Each color can be used dry as an eyeshadow or wet, to use as an eyeliner to create a smokey effect. This is the first time I’ve ever heard of using an eyeshadow wet, so I thought it was really cool and also useful. Okay, when I first tried the eyeshadow out the first thing I noticed was how a little of this product can go a long way. Usually, it takes multiple coats of my normal eyeshadow to achieve the look I want, but with the Hard Candy pallettes I only needed one coat, which was a refreshing change from my average 3 coats. After I was done applying in the morning, I ended up wearing my makeup all the way into the night and I can’t complain, it lasted me literally all day and still looked really great without any smudging. And lastly, I don’t know about you, but I’m always on the hunt to find makeup and other products that are animal testing free, so when I found out this company didn’t test on animals I was so happy and also gained a lot of respect for them as a business. With all this being said, I really encourage you to give these Hard Candy eyeshadow pallets a try, they’ll have you looking incredibly beautiful!

Hard Candy Cosmetics can be found at drugstores nationwide

Tori Kelly at the Grammy’s

unnamed-1

THE LOOK: A modern interpretation of old Hollywood style

INSPIRATION: Celebrity hairstylist Nikki Providence was inspired by Kelly’s one shoulder green dress. “I wanted to let her natural texture shine through a classic pincurl set,” she said.

How To Get The Look:
Nikki started with clean wet hair, and prepped the roots with John Frieda Frizz Ease® Curl Reviver Mousse and sprayed 12 sprays of the John Frieda Frizz Ease® Go Curlier™ Heat-Activated Spray throughout the hair.

Then she used a wide-tooth comb to shape the front and sides into sculpted waves, clipping each section into position.

She twisted the remainder of the hair in 2-inch sections and dried her with a diffuser before taking the clips out.

Nikki used her hands to smooth and sculpt the final shape, applying a thin coat of John Frieda Frizz Ease® Secret Weapon® Touch-Up Crème on her hands to make sure her fingers glided over the hair for a final touch of smoothness.

Then she used a 3/4 inch curling iron to touch up any areas that needed extra hold or curl.

She finished off the look with John Frieda Frizz Ease® KeraFLEX™ Flexible Hold Hairspray.
