How To Get Eyeliner Like Rachel Bilson

Rachel Bilson’s eyes continue to create a buzz wherever she goes, and women everywhere want to know how she gets them. I don’t think I have ever seen her eyeliner not look perfect, and it has become her signature look. She continues to give us her sexy eyeliner and occasional smoky eyes, and according to Rachel, it takes only minutes to do.

We caught up with Rachel in NYC during Fashion Week, and got the real scoop on how she gets ready for the camera, and red carpet events. It will make you happy to know there is no beauty team, only Rachel. “I like to keep things simple. My typical look is just Chapstick, blush, eyeliner, and a little mascara,” said the star, who added a little taupe shadow in this shot.

RachelBilsonTo get the look, start by lining the rim of eyes and dotting in between the lashes using a waterproof eyeliner pencil like benefit’s BADGal  Waterproof liner in black.  You can smudge or leave alone. Then with an eyeliner stencil, place the stencil above your eye and with a small shadow brush apply color along line. Repeat the same underneath the eye using the bottom eyeliner stencil. This will keep the color as close to the lash line as possible like Rachel’s seen here.

If you prefer your liner a little thicker at the ends, go over the liner starting at the middle of eye and out towards the end. Set with an eyeliner sealant or leave as is. To complete the “Rachel Bilson Look”, apply at least one, to two coats of black mascara, starting at the base of lashes and working your way to the tips. Try the NEW Pulse Perfection Mascara from Maybelline.

How To Get Extra Long, Thick Eyelashes

Posted by The Girls in the BSW Beauty Dept. on 11th October 2009

Ever wonder how some celebrities get their lashes to look so long and amazing? Well many of our readers did too, so we asked our beauty expert and co-founder of BeautyStylewatch, beth bender for her tips on how to get them.

best beauty tips from makeup artist beth bender

“There are a few ways to improve the look of your lashes. Of course the most popular at the moment is Latisse by Allergan. You get amazing results in as little as two weeks, but you need a prescription to purchase it. Neulash is also very, very good and that you can purchase directly from their site.”

“There are also Lash Extensions which look absolutely amazing, but the maintenance is every 2 weeks and the initial cost can be expensive, but the easiest way and still my favorite is as simple as a great black mascara, and a few individual lashes to add just the right amount of drama to the eyes.”

Glee actress Lea Michele seen here with fabulous lashes, has done just that by adding a few single lashes to both eyes. “Lucky for Lea her lashes are incredibly long on her own” says beth, so a few is all she needs. If they aren’t, a great tip for faking dense lashes before adding the individuals is to dust them with translucent powder and then add your mascara. “It makes them look bigger and longer, and gives the mascara something to cling to.” It also creates a nice base to slip the lashes into so no one will ever know they’re not yours.

Pulse Perfection Vibrating Mascara in black is actually perfect for creating this look. The pulsating wand distributes mascara evenly up to the ends so your lashes will look longer and fuller in seconds, and it won’t compromise the additional lashes added to the eyes.  And of course your perfect eyeliner is easily achieved with the eyeliner stencils from the Get in Line Eyeliner & Stencil Kit. Tight eyeliner, or a cat eye like Lea’s will get you noticed on or off the red carpet.
