Want to create the some of the Red Carpet Beauty looks from the MTV Movie Awards?  Well, here’s your chance.  In an intimate setting, Beth and I got to hang with the talented, and oh-so cute Max Factor Celebrity Make-up Artist Jake Bailey.  He went over step by step with me how he created Lo Bosworth (from The Hills) look while we enjoyed delicious Mojito’s, fabulous food, and watched the awards.

Jake wanted to focus on Lo’s eyes so he used a lot of individual lashes, layered them with Max Factor’s 2000 Calorie Lash Plumper Mascara and then curled them with an eye lash curler.  He used a little slate color by Chanel on her upper lids since he believes that when you are doing a big lash look the rest of the eye should be clean.  “The young girls want to have a look, but not to be over done,” says Jake. Then he used Max Factor’s Gilt Complex Eye Liner on her lower eye line.  A bronze color to define and balance the eyes without bringing the eyes down.  According to Jake this completes the eyes for a WOW look!

Hanging with Jake, and all the gals from Marina Maher was a blast.  Not only did we learn how “to get Lo Bosworth’s look,” but we also swapped industry stories and marveled at the various “Red Carpet Beauty Looks.”

We loved Jake and look forward to hanging with him again…(I wanted to take him home with me but Beth wouldn’t let me…) :)

Peace Out…

celebrity looks

Ever wonder what some of these celebrities look like when they are not working?  Where they go, what they wear…Well, they look just like us…After all they are human beings and they function exactly like us non-celebs.  They wear jeans with holes, they go to Starbucks, they shop at  Albertsons, Costco, Rite-Aid, and they struggle with their children on a day to day basis.  The only difference is that every move they make is being watched closely by the media.

Being in the industry for as long as I have I can sympathize.  It’s a vocation that brings lots of unwanted & wanted attention.  Most celebs want to exist along side the rest of us without being noticed.  Can you blame them…They don’t want photos of themselves plastered all over the magazines while they are having a personal moment or a bad day.  Would you?  Some days we all feel off or just don’t want the world to see us.  We have that choice.  But some of these celebs don’t.

Not the best photo of Kate Hudson but who cares!!!  We still think she is absolutely adorable and cute as a button!  No one can always look fabulous…(not even me :) However, Beth and I are always here to help you in any area of beauty, fashion or health.  Just holler when you’re having a gloom and doom day…

And remember, the next time you happen to spot a celebrity out in the real world…just let them be…(okay, you can smile to yourself…I do!)

Peace out…
