RED CARPET READY LIPS

Keep your lip color looking red carpet ready for hours with these quick tips from Beth. Instead of filling your lips in with a lipstick try using a water-proof lip liner.  We like Make Up Forever Aqua Lip Waterproof Lipliner Pencils, $16 at Sephora. For lips like Blake Lively try Red 8C a true red lip pencil.

Once you’ve finished filling your lips in give them some extra Hollywood glam with a high shine gloss. Try Reddy Freddy gloss from beth bender beauty and a favorite of Liv Tyler.

Have you tried these gorgeous color sticks from Shiseido? They are genius! Dick Page used the Rouge Flush stick at the Narciso Rodriguez show in New York and the models look beautiful. The color sticks can be used to highlight the eyes, cheeks, lips and body for a brilliant luster.

They go on smoothly, adhere well to the skin, and gives a lustrous, crease- free finish that lasts. Two of the key ingredients are Hydro-Wrap Vitalizing DE, a lasting moisturizing factor and 3-D Powder that gives a natural depth and highlight to the facial contours.

Five shades to choose from and all are so pretty. Each tube is $32 and you can see them all at sephora.com.

Smoky eyes when overdone can sometimes become overpowering as in the case of Hayden Panettiere and Sharon Stone, see here sporting smoky eyes some might call raccoon eyes.

To avoid this look make sure to only apply eyeshadow onto the eyelid and blend into the crease of eye so that the color is slightly above the crease. Do not apply a dark color into the corner of eye and high above the crease as seen here on Sharon Stone. Instead use a lighter shade and blend with the darker color for a more polished look.

Avoid heavy thick eyeliner around the entire eye. Instead line the eyes so that the outer part of the eye is thickest and becomes more tapered as you get closer to the inner corner of eye, as seen here below on Hilary Duff.

If you’re using a Gel eyeliner or pencil to line the eyes you can set the color with an eyeshadow of the same color or a lighter shade. This will also soften the line and give the eyes a more sultry look. Not sure where to place the color? Having trouble trying to get the smoky eye look? Check out Beth’s Get in Line Eyeliner & Stencil Kit designed to help create smoky eyes with ease.

Have you tried DuWop’s new Doubleglow7? Well if you haven’t you must. I had to see for myself because I’m always in search of the best products to give your skin radiance and a healthy glow. Doubleglow7 meets all of my needs and I was amazed at how great my skin looked.

Doubleglow7 is a luminous face balm that gives an instant radiance and clarity to your skin. I know you’re thinking face balm that sounds like it might be heavy or greasy but I can assure you it’s not. If you don’t believe me check it out for yourself the next time you’re near a Sephora or if you happen to live in the Los Angeles area, Larchmont Beauty Supply in Larchmont carries the full line of DuWop products.

At $25 a jar it’s totally worth the investment. Because I don’t have a lot of time during the week I bought three jars of Doubleglow7. I used it the other day on a job and ended up giving it to the model on the shoot. She could not stop talking about how beautiful her skin looked and I thought why not?
