Fabulous Over Forty – Where Beauty Is Ageless

Celebrity makeup artist Jillian Dempsey did Lancôme ambassador Kate Winslet’s beautiful makeup tonight for the Golden Globes.   I LOVED her smoky eye – a little more intense than she usually has done in the past.

Kate’s look was clean and luminous. Armani Luminous Silk Foundation showed off Kate’s naturally beautiful complexion.

To create contoured cheekbones, Jillian used Avon Be Blushed in Blushing Nude and highlighted the cheeks with a brightener.

Jillian Dempsey For Avon Professional Kohl Eye Liner in Navy played off the midnight hues of Kate’s dress. Several coats of Lancôme Hypnôse Mascara in Excessive Black really made Kate’s eyes pop.

For Kate’s matte lip, which she requested, Jillian topped lip liner with Lancôme L’Absolu Rouge in Rich Cashmere for a soft, pretty finish.

Below is Kristofer’s step-by-step to recreate Julianna’s look:

Complexion:

· Using fingers apply Orgasm Illuminator (NEW for Spring 2010) down the center of the nose, across cheekbones, and on the apples of the cheeks

· Apply Firming Foundation all over face, mixing in with the Orgasm Illuminator

· Re-apply Orgasm Illuminator over the entire complexion to encourage shine [Kristofer’s tip: "I used the Flat Concealer Brush to apply the Orgasm Illuminator on top of the foundation creating high gleam."]

Eyes:

· Apply both sides of Cordura Duo Eyeshadow into the crease and all over the eyelid

· Dab the sooty dark brown side of Cordura Duo Eyeshadow on the outer part of the eye [Kristofer’s tip: "I love the shimmering iridescent in this eyeshadow. A metallic iridescence softens the smokiness of an eye allowing it to look like it is part of the skin rather than looking gothic."]

· Next, use the sable shade from Brousse Duo Eyeshadow and lightly dust under lower lash line

· Then, lightly tap Orgasm Illuminator (NEW for Spring 2010) on the inside corner of the eye

· Curl the eyelashes and apply Larger Than Life Lengthening Mascara

Lips:

· Apply Cruising Lipstick (NEW Spring 2010)

· Next, layer Ophelia Lip Gloss (NEW Spring 2010) over the lipstick [Kristofer’s tip: "I love this soft pink, it adds just the right amount of color."]

Cheeks:

· Dust Super Orgasm Blush onto the apples of cheeks

Body:

· Blend Orgasm Illuminator (NEW for Spring 2010) all over neck and décolletage

Orgasm Illuminator will be available at Sephora on February 1 and all other NARS Cosmetics are available online at NARS Cosmetics

Funny lady and Golden Globes nominee Tina Fey was made up by celebrity makeup artist Ana Marie tonight.  Here’s the scoop on Tina Fey’s makeup at the awards straight from Ana Marie. The inspiration, says Ana Marie, was Old Hollywood/1950′s with a twist.

Tina’s skin was prepped with Lancôme Secret de Vie Toner (Ana Marie’s favorite!) and moisturized with Bienfait Multi Vital, a combination that keeps the skin looking vibrant all day.

Lancôme Absolue Foundation in Pearl evened out Tina’s complexion. Ana Marie applied it with a foundation brush and blended with a damp sponge to make the foundation more transparent.

To create a sun-kissed look, Ana Marie layered a cream blush (Lancôme Color Design Creme Blush in Petticoat Pink) with a powder blush (YSL Blush Variation in #18 Coral Sand). Layering the different textures allows for long-lasting color.

For the eyes, Ana Marie lined the top and bottom lash line with Lancôme Le Crayon Khôl in Black Coffee and curled the lashes using a Shu Uemura eye lash curler. Lancôme Défincils Waterproof Mascara in Black was applied to create separated, dark lashes.

Lips were lined and defined with Le Lipstique in Sheer Natural and filled in with Lancôme Color Fever Shine Lipstick in Tempt Me. For a fresh, glossy finish, Ana Marie used Lancôme Juicy Tubes in Cherry Burst.

Get Courtney’s look – even though I am officially stating I really despise the term “cougar”.  

Celebrity makeup artist Genevieve gave Courteney Cox her Golden Globes look, pairing a sexy smoky eye with a pale nude lip. Genevieve gave us all the details on the nominee’s look.

Genevieve lined Lancôme Le Crayon Khôl in Gris Noir on the upper and lower lash line to define Courteney’s eyes. Several coats of Lancôme Hypnôse mascara in black gave her lashes a beautiful boost of volume.

Genevieve added Lancôme Color Design Eyeshadow in Honeymoon to the inner corner and The New Black to the outer corner to make Courteney’s eyes pop.

Genevieve added just a touch of color to the cheeks with Giorgio Armani Sheer Cream Blush #2.

 For Courteney’s soft neutral colored pout, Genevieve dabbed on Lancôme Color Design Lipcolor in Pale Lip.

Get Rose Byrne’s look from the Golden Globes with Lancome products.   If you don’t know Rose, she’s on Damages with Glenn Close – set to return to TV next week.  It’s my all-time favorite TV show!

Celebrity makeup artist Ana Marie prepped the skin with Secret de Vie Toner (her favorite!) and then applied Lancôme Bienfait Multi Vital moisturizer to keep skin hydrated and fresh.

Lancôme Absolue Foundation in Ecru was applied with a foundation brush and blended with a makeup sponge. This helps the foundation go on evenly and keep the skin looking radiant.

To create a sultry smokey eye, Ana Marie used Lancôme Eyeshadow Quad in Innocence Couture. The Positive shade was swept all over the eyelid and Fashion Scoop and Backstage Pass were blended just to the lash line and smudged. Next, Lancôme Artliner in Noir was used to create a cat line for extra drama. Lancôme Définicils Waterproof Mascara in Black coated the top and bottom lashes.

Lancôme Color Design Cream Blush in Petticoat Pink was dabbed on the apples of the cheek and then topped with a powder blush, Lancôme Blush Subtil in Cedar Rose. This technique helps keep the cheek color fresh all day, even with the rain! Shu Uemura Loose Powder in Translucent was dusted on the T-zone to create a matte complexion.

Finally, Lancôme Juicy Tubes in Simmer gave Rose her ultra-glossy pout.

Kate Somerville Skin Health Experts have been very busy this week getting stars ready for the Golden Globes tonight.   I personally can’t wait for them to begin!

Stars like Debra Messing (shown above with Kate) and Kyra Sedgwick- both fabulous over forty - and many other stars are enjoying skin care treatments with a favorite pre-red carpet treatment being the DermalQuench Oxygen Treatment.  This three step process includes:

• EXFOLIATE - Begins with cleansing facial and serious exfoliation with fruit enzymes.
• HYDRATE – They use a stainless steel spray applicator to drench and infuse skin with super hydrating ingredients and vitamins.
• MOISTURIZE – They finish by layering anti-aging creams, packed with peptides, to seal in hydration and smooth fine lines and lock in the GLOW!

Here are some of my favorite Kate Somerville products that you can use at home to get your own glow:

• Gentle Daily Wash  – to gently cleanse your face.
• ExfoliKate – packed with fruit enzymes to remove dead skin cells and reveal smooth, fresh skin. A personal favorite of mine.
• Total Vitamin Serum – packed with Vitamin C to prevent future damage to your skin – the ultimate in anti-oxidants.
• HydraKate Line Release – this gives an immediate tightening effect to your skin and with peptides and collagen builders to work long term for better texture and tone of your skin.
• Deep Tissue Repair – moisturize with a special blend of Peptide K8 to soften, strengthen and keep your skin gorgeous!
• Quench – if you have really dry skin and need an extra dose of moisture, top it with Quench (a favorite of mine and many others I’ve recommended it to), leaving your skin looking healthy with your beautiful new glow!

Stay tuned on Monday for more Golden Globe red carpet makeup looks.   I’ll have some fabulous over 40 stars with their how-to looks!
