GRAMMYS: Chrissy Teigen ‘Get The Look’

Step 1//SKIN:  Patrick prepped Chrissy Teigen’s face by washing it with La Mer The Refining Facial, prior to applying The Moisturizing Gel Cream to give her complexion a luminous and smooth base. Before any makeup, he added a poreless primer and hydrated her lips using La Mer Lip Balm.

Step 2//FACE: 

  • Patrick used the Le Mer The Mist to cool down the face before applying foundation with oil to ensure an endless glow. Patrick used THE MAKEUP DROP to ensure that the foundation blended seamlessly into Chrissy’s skin. “I love using The Makeup Drop because it doesn’t waste any product.” – Patrick Ta
  • To highlight under the eyes, Patrick used La Mer concealer -two shades lighter- to bring light to the face using THE MAKEUP DROP’s tapered end to precisely blend under the eyes, before applying a translucent powder to hold the concealer in place and brighten.
  • Next, Patrick applied a highlighter to the high points of the cheekbones and blush to the apples of the cheeks in a bronzy pink shade before finishing the face with Sephora’s Translucent Powder and a setting spray.

Step 3//EYES: Patrick created a bold eye using Sephora Copper Rush 291, Lucky Penny 220 and Pearl 285, and a smudged black liner. Next, he curled Chrissy’s lashes and coated twice with black mascara and Mink Kiss Lashes in Little Black Dress.

Step 4://BROWS: To create a thicker brow Patrick used eyebrow pencil in a shade that was one shade lighter than Chrissy’s natural brows.

Step 5//LIPS: To complete the look, Patrick mixed Sephora Liquid Mattes in 23 and with Sephora 04 liner with a clear gloss to top it off.

Get The Look: Paris Jackson at the 2017 Grammy’s

Who: Paris Jackson at the 2017 Grammy Awards

The Look: Cool girl glam

The Inspiration:  Rimmel London Make-up Artist Jo Baker wanted to create a careful balance between Paris Jackson’s outfit and makeup. Paris wore a dazzling disco inspired Balmain jumpsuit in an array of pastel hues, with thigh high slits up each leg and a plunging neckline – so Jo opted to keep her makeup smooth and natural with subtle details.

How to Get the Look:

Skin

Jo wanted Paris’ skin to look flawless and healthy. After dotting Rimmel London Match Perfection Concealer around her eyes, nose and mouth, Jo then applied a sheer coat of Rimmel London InstaFlawless Skin Tint to add a natural looking glow with smooth creamy finish. The result is a balanced, soft and radiant glow. InstaFlawless Skin Tint is perfect for this kind of event – it acts as a primer, smoothing the texture of the skin so that it sits pretty while also providing a much needed SPF15 for that mid-day LA heat!

Cheeks

Paris and Jo both love face sculpting! Jo used a contour that has a soft de-focusing finish so that when the camera light hits, it looks like beautiful skin and not a harsh stripy line. To create a subtle and undetectable sculpted look, Jo used a medium sized blush brush to apply Rimmel London Insta Flawless Matte Setting Powder to help apply an even contour and sculpt effect. Then, using her favorite Rimmel London Kate Sculpting & Highlighting Kit in Golden Sands, she applied smooth strokes of the contour shade from the sides of her mouth all the way up towards the top of her ears.

Eyes Jo loves Paris’ intense ice-blue eyes. So without hesitation, they opted for a natural and clean eyelid and concentrated on Paris’ lashes. She applied a generous amount of Rimmel London Scandaleyes Mascara for a long lasting mega volume effect. This mascara and applicator brush gives lashes a curl by pushing them up with each stroke.

Brows

Jo combed through her brows and added several strokes of Rimmel LondonProfessional Eyebrow Pencil in Dark Brown to fill in any gaps and give her strong, yet natural brows with a sharp angular look. Using the nifty brow comb, Jo repeated the process until her brows were the desired shape and fullness. The key to Paris’ brows are the razor tight line creating the arch, so Jo used her concealer brush with the leftover concealer on it to refine and define the edges to make sure it looked clean and dramatic.

Lips

To finish off the look, Jo lined her lips using Rimmel London Exaggerate Full Colour Lip Liner in Innocent which is a soft nude beige tone which even has a soft sheen to it. She kept it simple with her new favorite Rimmel London The Only 1 Matte in Trendsetter which is the perfect blend of warm and cool tones. For that perfect graceless nude that glides on creamy and feels super comfortable on the lip as well.

The Benefits of Healthy Lips – Lip Care Tips

Are you forgetting your lips?

Most beauty products on the market focus on giving you flawless skin free of wrinkles and blemishes. While it is important to keep the skin hydrated and in good condition, most women forget to care for their lips in their daily beauty routine. Paying special attention to your lips can take your beauty routine to the next level and give you a polished overall look.

The Benefits of Healthy Lips
Nothing ruins a beautiful lipstick color like applying it over dry, chapped lips. Hydrated and smooth lips provide the perfect base for lipstick, gloss, or stains. Even when you go without makeup, having polished looking lips helps you look your best without any additional effort.

The Basics of Lip Care
Even if you don’t wear makeup on a regular basis, keeping your lips in good health will benefit your overall appearance with a few simple steps.

1. Hydrate
The most important aspect of healthy lips is hydration. Keeping a water bottle with you during the day can encourage you to stay hydrated, and this will help keep your lips full and hydrated. In addition to drinking water regularly, be sure to apply lip balm regularly to avoid chapped lips.

2. Exfoliate
Just like the delicate skin on your face, your lips can benefit from regular exfoliation to keep them looking their best. A homemade version can be just as effective as store-bought treatments. Simply mix brown sugar with coconut oil and apply to the lips in a circular motion for 1-2 minutes. Be sure to follow the treatment with some eos lip balm or moisturizer to keep lips hydrated.

3. Protect 
If you spend time outdoors regularly, it is important to protect your lips from sun damage with an SPF lip balm. Apply regularly during summer and winter alike to protect from the sun’s damaging rays.

Making Smart Beauty Product Choices
If you use lip color on top of your hydrated and protected lips, you’ll want to make sure the care you’ve taken isn’t undone by your product choices. Regularly using matte lip color can dry out your lips, so try to alternate them with regular finishes or short breaks in your makeup routine.

Paying extra attention to your lips can complete your beauty routine and give you gorgeous lips for any occasion. Follow these beauty tips to keep your lips looking full and healthy year-round.
