Stepping onto the red carpet in a single strapped, deep purple Zac Posen dress, Mary-Louise Parker was ready to shine at the Emmy’s. Celebrity makeup artist Tina Turnbow for Maybelline New York was inspired by the deep purple and indigo tones in Mary-Louise’s dress, and her gorgeous gunmetal grey accessories. To play up the colors in Mary-Louise’s dress, Tina brought out her best features with a dramatic yet classic smoky eye, blushing pink cheeks and nude lips.

Face: Because Mary-Louise has beautiful porcelain skin, Tina kept her face looking pristine by applying Maybelline New York Dream Liquid Mousse in Classic Ivory – with touches of Maybelline New York Dream Mousse Concealer in Light under the eyes and to the tops of the cheeks to give a contoured look.

Cheeks: To compliment her ivory skin, Tina brushed on Maybelline New York Mineral Power Naturally Luminous Blush in Gentle Pink to the apples of the cheeks to give the look of a soft natural flush.

Eyes: Tina’s inspiration for Mary-Louise’s entire look was the gorgeous opal-toned smoky eye she created with Maybelline New York Expert Wear Stylish Smokes in Amethyst Smokes. Tina used all four shades in the palette to play up her eyes and add drama; the deep purples complemented her creamy skin and dark hair. She then followed with Maybelline New York Line Stiletto Liquid Eyeliner in Black on the upper and lower lash lines. To showcase the gorgeous jewel tones of the shadows, Tina only applied one coat of Maybelline New York Pulse Perfection Vibrating Mascara in Very Black.

Lips: For a barely-there, neutral lip, Tina lined the entire mouth with Maybelline New York Color Sensational Lip Liner in Toast. She then followed up with Maybelline New York Color Sensational Lipstick in Nearly There.

Body: To complete the look, a soft dusting of Maybelline New York Mineral Power Illuminator in Nude was brushed along her collar bones, arms and legs for a red carpet glow.

Makeup artist Tasha Reiko Brown for Maybelline New York created the look for 90210 actress Jessica Lowndes at last week’s Who What Wear Daily book launch party in Los Angeles, California.

Jessica’s cool gray top and 4-inch stilettos were the inspiration for both the eyeshadow colors by Maybelline New York.

Clothes:

Top – H&M

Skirt – Phillip Lim

Shoes – Jimmy Choo

Face: Since Jessica has naturally beautiful skin, Tasha kept her face mostly bare with a light wash of Maybelline New York SuperStay 24HR Makeup in Pure Beige – and touches of Maybelline New York SuperStay 24HR Concealer in Light under the eyes and to the tops of the cheeks and around nose to highlight.

Cheeks: To give her skin a soft natural flush, Tasha brushed on Maybelline New York Mineral Power Naturally Luminous Blush in Romantic Plum to the apples of the cheeks.

Lips: For a soft pink romantic mouth, Tasha used the Maybelline New York Color Sensational Lip Liner in Pink in the center of the lips to keep a soft edge. She then followed up with Maybelline New York Color Sensational Lipstick in Pink Me Up. Tasha completed the lip look with a complimentary gloss only in the center of the lips to add a bit of glow and pout: Maybelline New York Color Sensational Lip Gloss – also in shade Born With It.

Eyes: Jessica has amazing clear green eyes that pop with just touch of the right mascara. Tasha started with Maybelline New York Expert Wear Stylish Smokes in Charcoal Smokes on her eyes using just the color for the lids and outer corners for definition. She then followed up with Maybelline New York Line Stiletto Liquid Eyeliner in Black on the outer 2/3 of her eyes. To finish, she applied two coats of Maybelline New York Great Lash Big in Blackest Black with extra on the outer corners for a cat eye look.

Body: To complete the look, a soft dusting of Maybelline New York Mineral Power Illuminator in Nude was brushed along her collar bones, arms and legs for added glow.

While tons of our girlfriends swear by Maybelline Great Lash mascara, we just haven’t been able to feel its love.

It weighs down our perfectly crimped curl and straightens out our lashes instantly, which is sort of a bummer because we really want to love this mascara.

But not to worry, as Maybelline has plenty other stars on their shelf, like this Shiny-Licious Lip Gloss in Pink Bikini, a limited edition color in their Solar Power collection.

Cool, casual and slightly flirty– this shiny pale pink is the perfect weekend shade.

(Also, at only $6 bucks, it doesn’t hurt as much when it ‘disappears’ at the hands of the teenagers.)
