Coral Reef

Coral: An orange & goldish version of pink
Bobbi Brown just launched its Spring line of lipsticks, shimmers, and glosses -- I have to say I have a new found respect for the color Coral!
Favorite: Nectar Shimmer Brick & Pink Quartz

Result: It combines a range of corals and produces a beautiful shimmered cheek with just enough shine to make your face glow

Do: A coral lipstick with a shiny gloss, suttle eyes, and blush.

Designer Face

Award shows are an opportune time to let your inner diva shine with not only a designer gown, but a designer face!

Hollywood's leading ladies have access to the world's most talented make-up artists, so I'm especially interested in how styles are applied based on the dress, and how it all comes together when they are strutting down the red carpet...

Kate: Classy, natural, and flawless.

Tip: When wearing a bold color, keep your make-up natural!

Drew: Love her transformation in the last few years!

Love: Her color choices in a berry lip, dark brows, and rosy cheeks.

Hayden: Navy blue is super sexy.
Must: A smokey eye with a natural lip an ideal look when you are wearing a dark color.

Cameron: Red is a bold color that can be worn year round in my opinion
Avoid: Wearing a red dress, with red lipstick? Negative.

Drama Queen

There are several ways to shape and dramatize your eye make-up.
Favorite: A white/frosty eye pencil or shadow to be lined on the inside half your eye.
Tip: Be sure to blend evenly with the rest of your eye-liner to produce the desired effect.
Drama: Don't be afraid to use colored eye pencils and combine with a white eye liner, or MAC cosmetic's Nylon eye-shadow.

A Champagne Toast

New year, new trends.

Since working at Bobbi Brown, I've fallen in love with their shimmer shadow called Champagne. It's the perfect blend of gold, nude, and shimmer!


Fact: You can pair this shadow with almost any lip color, since it provides your eyes with a touch of shimmer!
