Alicia Keys was my favorite look of the BET Awards last Sunday night at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles, California.
I was beyond thrilled just now when I got my hands on the how-to for Alicia’s look:
Celebrity makeup artist, Ashunta Sheriff, created a Moroccan inspired look for Alicia Keys based on her recent trip for the Mawaline Festival. Ashunta gave Alicia flawless skin and coral lips reminiscent of a Moroccan Paradise.
Ashunta prepped Alicia’s skin with Laura Mercier Mineral Primer, a superfine, lightweight and translucent powder that primes the skin prior to foundation application for an even, mistake-proof surface ($30, available at www.lauramercier.com)
Alicia’s beautiful coral pout was created using BeingTRUE Satin Lip Shine in Luscious, a dazzling coral. Created to coat with a glistening satin finish for color and depth, this Lip Shines contains an infusion of peppermint oil, caffeine and exotic antioxidants to accentuate the natural fullness of lips and hydrate while helping to decrease fine lines ($22, available at www.BeingTRUE.com).
My other favorite looks of the night were Zoe Saldana, Tyra Banks and Beyonce:
Zoe Saldana rocked matte skin and berry-stained lips at the BET Awards in Los Angeles last Sunday.
Tyra Banks accented her infamous green eyes with mile-long lashes and nude lips.
Beyonce’s colorful mini dress meant barely-there makeup for the superstar. I’m loving the silver mani.

Embrace the heat this summer with Bohemia, the new color collection from Laura Mercier.
Earthy, warm colors for the eyes, lips and cheeks are glowing with shimmer and shine. The limited edition Eye Mosaic comes in two quads of coordinating shades called Mediterranean Sea and Sahara Sun (pictured below).
I’m most impressed with the Moroccan Bronze Illuminating Powder, a gorgeous highlighting powder with tones of bronze and copper expertly embossed with a design so pretty you won’t want to use it.
Also in this collection are two limited edition Lip Colour-Shimmer shades: Boho Bronze and Spiced.
Laura Mercier Summer 2009 Bohemia Collection is currently available online at LauraMercier.com.
